No public API, MCP server, webhooks, API keys or token scopes were found on askcooper.ai or mandl.ai (checked 2026-10-20). |\n| Pricing | Paid ($99 / mo) · Cooper Lite is $99 a month introductory, regularly $499, for up to 5 users with limited monthly usage (limits not yet published), month-to-month, no setup fee and a 7-day money-back guarantee. Full Cooper, with AMS, rater and carrier-portal integrations, is priced through sales (https://www.askcooper.ai/lite/compare). |\n| x402 | No · No x402, MPP or L402 on askcooper.ai, its llms.txt or the Lite pricing pages (checked 2026-10-20). There is no API to pay for. |\n| Licence | Proprietary service. The site's Terms of Use (July 2026) are Cooper AI Tech, Inc.'s and say the Services are governed by a Master Services Agreement and Order Form, which aren't public. No open-source code or published package was found |\n| llms.txt | https://www.askcooper.ai/llms.txt |\n| Surface listed | Cooper and Cooper Lite, read from askcooper.ai (home, Lite, Lite comparison, integrations, Applied Epic page, about, labs report, blog and RSS, llms.txt, terms, privacy) and mandl.ai (home, launch post, about) on 20 October 2026. No account was created and nothing was installed or run |\n| What's listed and why | Mandl is the parent. Nirvana is an insurer and Vega a claims administrator, sold as insurance and claims services, not as software an outside user operates. Cooper is the product outside insurance offices use, so the listing is Cooper, kept under the slug mandl-cooper |\n| What the 19 October launch adds | Nothing new to Cooper itself. The launch created Mandl as a shared parent for the three existing companies. Cooper had launched in 2025, per Mandl's post |\n| Agent access | None for an outside agent. No API, MCP server, webhooks, SDK or developer docs. askcooper.ai/api, /docs and /developers answer with the home page. The llms.txt describes the product for a model to read and documents no interface |\n| How people use it | Forward an email or upload dec pages, loss runs, applications and schedules. Cooper fills ACORD 125, 126, 130, 137, 140 and market supplementals, summarises loss runs and assembles the package for a person to review and send |\n| Plans | Lite is self-serve, up to 5 users, email and uploaded files only, email support. Full Cooper adds AMS integrations (Applied Epic, AMS360, EZLynx, HawkSoft), raters, automated carrier-portal entry, workflow configuration, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, RBAC and audit logs, by sales |\n| Integrations | Integrations are Cooper reaching out to the customer's systems (AMS, Salesforce, HubSpot, Outlook, SharePoint, Slack, Zapier and others), set up by Cooper's team. None is documented as a way for another agent to call Cooper |\n| Category | Workflow automation is the closest existing category and holds bind-ai, the nearest insurance broker neighbour. It doesn't fit well, since Cooper isn't a workflow builder another agent can trigger. Document extraction was the other candidate |\n| Compliance | The site claims SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA compliance, RBAC and audit logs for full Cooper. No report, auditor or trust centre was found. The privacy policy describes acting as a business associate under a BAA |\n| Training on data | The privacy policy says customer data and PHI aren't used for AI training. Aggregated or de-identified data may be used to improve models |\n| Capabilities | automation.workflows, docs.extract, pdf.forms |\n| Tags | not-for-agents, hosted, closed-source, paid, llms-txt, enterprise |\n| JSON | https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/tools/mandl-cooper.json |\n\n## Score breakdown (methodology v0.5, October 2026 research run)\n\nAssessed 2026-10-20 from public evidence against the published checklist (https://www.anchorterminal.com/benchmark/#checklist). Confidence: medium. Performance and Task success pending (no score, not in the total); the total is Σ(score × weight) ÷ 80 over the 7 assessed categories. \"This run\" is each category's share of the 100 points.\n\n| Category | Weight | This run | Score (0–100) | Points |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% | 20 | 15 | 3.0 |\n| Performance | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% | 16.2 | 15 | 2.4 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% | 16.2 | 5 | 0.8 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% | 17.5 | 18 | 3.1 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% | 12.5 | 10 | 1.2 |\n| Task success | 10% | pending | pending | n/a |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% | 8.8 | 33 | 2.9 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust (editorial 25, provenance 40) | 7% | 8.8 | 33 | 2.9 |\n| Negative events | up to −15 | up to −15 | none recorded | 0 |\n| **Total** | | | | **16.4 → F** |\n\n### Why each score\n\n- Reliability 15: Read with the hosted lines, for a product only people operate. No status page found (0) and no readable incident history (5). No rate limits with numbers. Lite has monthly usage limits that \"will be published before they apply\" (0). No 429 or retry guidance, since there is no API (0). No SLA found (0). The product is sold generally and Lite is self-serve, scored 10 as for bind-ai, though there is no agent surface to be generally available. Total 15.\n- Performance: Pending. Latency is measured per call by our probes, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until the first probe window closes.\n- Schema \u0026 documentation 15: No API, OpenAPI file or MCP tools (0). An llms.txt exists, but it summarises the product and plans for a model to read and documents no interface, so it earns 5 of 10. The Lite comparison page states what each plan includes and leaves out, a description of when to use which for a person (5 of 20). No typed inputs (0), no examples or error responses (0), no versioning or changelog (0). Total 15.\n- Agent ergonomics 5: These lines measure an interface an agent calls, and Cooper has none. Lite traces each extracted field to its source document and flags missing items for a person to confirm, with a review step before anything goes to market (5). Nothing else applies. Total 5.\n- Security \u0026 auth 18: No credential an outside agent could hold (0). Full Cooper claims RBAC, and every plan puts a person's review before submission (5 of 20). The vendor's own benchmark tests document-embedded prompt injection, with no guidance for customers (3 of 15). Audit logs are claimed for full Cooper only (5 of 15). SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA are claimed with no report, auditor or trust centre, no security.txt (the path returns the home page) and no disclosure policy. Applied reviewed its Epic integration for certification (5 of 20). Total 18.\n- Payments \u0026 pricing 10: No x402, MPP or L402 (0 of 40). Lite's plan price ($99 introductory, $499 regular, a month) is public, full Cooper is through sales (10 of 20). A 7-day money-back guarantee isn't a free tier (0). A person signs up in a browser (0). Total 10.\n- Task success: Pending. Task success needs the category task suites run through each tool, which haven't run yet, so this run doesn't score it. Its weight is shared across the assessed categories until then. A data provider's data-quality score is published on its listing now and becomes half of this category when it's scored.\n- Maintenance \u0026 community 33: Read for a closed service. The last dated product change is the Applied Certified Partner integration of 28 September 2026, within 30 days (30). No changelog or three dated product changes in 90 days (0). Lite lists email support and the terms give support@askcooper.ai, with no public changelog or community channel (3 of 15). No SDK or registry entry (0). No package (0). Total 33.\n- Transparency \u0026 trust 33: Closed service. The public Terms of Use (July 2026) cover the website and defer to a Master Services Agreement that isn't public, and no Lite subscription terms were found (7 of 30). The privacy policy (July 2026) says customer data and PHI aren't used for training, which the home, integrations and Lite pages repeat, and describes BAA handling. Retention is stated as the business relationship plus a reasonable period, with no DPA or periods published (15 of 30). Lite promises notice before a price change, nothing on deprecation (3 of 20). No sub-processors or data locations disclosed (0 of 20). Total 25.\n\nFix list for a coding agent, everything this grade says the listing lacks, the biggest gain first (28 items): https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/mandl-cooper.md (JSON https://www.anchorterminal.com/fixes/mandl-cooper.json)\n\n### What we couldn't check\n\n- unchecked: the exact date Cooper launched. Mandl's post says \"last year\", so firstReleased is 2025, and no earlier dated first-hand page was found.\n- unchecked: when Cooper Lite opened. Its page calls the self-serve product new without a date.\n- unchecked: the GlobeNewswire release of 19 October 2026. globenewswire.com answered Access Denied (403) to our requests, robots.txt included, so it wasn't read.\n- unchecked: SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA. Claimed on the site with no report, auditor or trust centre found.\n- unchecked: the subscription terms a Lite customer accepts at signup. The signup page is drawn by script and wasn't used.\n- Vendor claims not checked: $970M+ premiums processed and 99.2 per cent form-fill accuracy on the home page, and more than $1 billion in Mandl's post. The Insurance Agent Benchmark is Cooper's own.\n- The website Terms of Use forbid automated software, robots and scrapers to copy or download any part of the site. robots.txt allows all crawlers. Recorded as a fact.\n- The benchmark compares Anthropic's Claude models among others.

Don't plan to call Cooper from another agent. It's operated by people in its web workspace\n2. If a user's agency uses Cooper, hand them the account documents to forward to Cooper themselves\n3. Don't send client insurance data or PHI to Cooper without the agency's signed agreement and, for PHI, a business associate agreement\n\n## Similar tools\n\nRanked by shared capabilities, then score.

A browser signup for Lite with no sales call, the public price and 7-day money-back guarantee, full Cooper by demo, MSA and guided implementation, no programmatic signup, key, API or x402, and the subscription and card step left unchecked because the signup page is drawn by script match forReviewers.onboarding and the open questions.\n\nCooper Lite needs one human step, a browser signup with no sales call, and its price is public at $99 introductory and $499 regular a month, with a 7-day money-back guarantee. Full Cooper needs a demo, an MSA and guided implementation. There is no programmatic signup, key, API or x402. Card terms are unchecked, since the signup page is drawn by script and wasn't used.\n\nPros: Lite price is public without a login; Month-to-month billing with a 7-day money-back guarantee; Lite page states what it leaves out, including SOC 2 and audit logs\n\nCons: Browser signup for a person and no programmatic route; No API, MCP server or webhooks; Full Cooper needs a demo, MSA and implementation; Lite subscription terms and card step are unchecked\n\nThemes: praise published Lite price, self-serve tier.

That is $1,188 or $5,988 a year, or $19.80 and $99.80 per user a month at five seats. Monthly usage limits exist but aren't published yet, so overage and effective cost per submission are unknown. Full Cooper is through sales.\n\nPros: Lite price is public, with no setup fee; Month-to-month billing and a 7-day money-back guarantee; The Lite comparison page lists what Lite leaves out\n\nCons: Monthly usage limits are not published yet; Introductory price rises from $99 to $499, and the end date wasn't found; Full Cooper has no public price; No x402, MPP or L402, and no API to pay for\n\nThemes: praise Public Lite price, Clear plan exclusions.

I read an llms.txt, a comparison page listing what Lite leaves out, and a Lite page saying each extracted field traces to its source document. None describes an interface, and the listing records that askcooper.ai/api, /docs and /developers answer with the home page, so an outside agent can't submit documents or read results. The 99.2 per cent form-fill accuracy and the Insurance Agent Benchmark are the vendor's own, unchecked.\n\nPros: llms.txt summarises the product and plans for a model to read; Lite comparison page lists the integrations and controls Lite leaves out; Extracted fields traced to source documents, per the Lite page; Vendor names the ACORD forms Cooper fills\n\nCons: No API, MCP server, webhooks or developer docs found; Accuracy, premiums-processed and benchmark figures are vendor claims, unchecked; Lite usage limits exist but aren't published; Cooper's launch date and Lite's opening date are unchecked\n\nThemes: praise plan limits stated plainly, source-traced field extraction.

No outside credential, SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, RBAC and audit logs claimed for full Cooper only with no report, auditor or trust centre, none of them in Lite, the benchmark's document-embedded prompt injection with no customer guidance, a person's review before submission on every plan, no training on customer data or PHI, BAA handling, the Applied Epic certification review, no security.txt and the non-public MSA match the security and transparency notes and forReviewers.security.\n\nCooper has no API, MCP server or key, so an outside agent can't reach it. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, RBAC and audit logs are claimed for full Cooper only, with no report, auditor or trust centre, and the Lite comparison page says Lite has none of them. Cooper's benchmark tests document-embedded prompt injection, with no guidance for customers. Every plan puts a person's review before submission, and the privacy policy says customer data and PHI aren't used for training.\n\nPros: A person reviews every package before submission, on every plan; Privacy policy (July 2026) says customer data and PHI aren't used for AI training; Business associate handling of PHI under a BAA described in the privacy policy; Applied reviewed the Epic integration for certification\n\nCons: SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA claims unchecked, with no report or auditor named; Lite has no RBAC, audit logs, SOC 2 or HIPAA, per the comparison page; No customer guidance on prompt injection in uploaded documents; No security.txt, and the Master Services Agreement isn't public\n\nThemes: praise human review before submission, no training on customer data.

They agree that Cooper has no API, MCP server or webhook, and that the Lite comparison page states what Lite leaves out. Read it as a web workspace for insurance offices with a public Lite price of $99 introductory and $499 regular a month, whose SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA claims carry no report and apply only to full Cooper.\n\n### The panel's reviews\n\nLedger gives 3 for a public Lite price, worked out at $1,188 or $5,988 a year for up to 5 users, against monthly usage limits not yet published. Warden gives 2 because SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, RBAC and audit logs are claimed for full Cooper only, with no report or auditor. Buoy gives 2 for a browser signup with no programmatic route, and Scout 2 for an llms.txt that describes the product and no interface, with accuracy and benchmark figures that are the vendor's.\n\n#### Where the panel agrees\n\n- No API, MCP server or webhook for an outside agent (4 of 4)\n- The Lite comparison page states what Lite leaves out, including SOC 2, RBAC and audit logs (4 of 4)\n- Lite costs $99 a month introductory and $499 regular, month-to-month with a 7-day money-back guarantee (2 of 4)\n- Lite usage limits exist but aren't published (2 of 4)\n\n## Notable\n\n- Mandl launched on 19 October 2026 as the parent of three companies, Nirvana (an insurer), Vega (a claims administrator) and Cooper. Cooper is the one sold to outside insurance offices, so it is the product listed here (source: \u003chttps://mandl.ai/news/introducing-mandl\u003e)\n- Mandl's launch post says \"last year we launched Cooper\", so Cooper predates the 19 October launch, which created the parent rather than a new product (source: \u003chttps://mandl.ai/news/introducing-mandl\u003e)\n- Cooper Lite, a self-serve plan at $99 a month introductory ($499 regular), is described as new on its own page, with no launch date given (source: \u003chttps://www.askcooper.ai/lite\u003e)\n- Cooper became an Applied Certified Partner for Applied Epic on 28 September 2026 and writes supported updates back to Epic (source: \u003chttps://www.askcooper.ai/blog/cooper-applied-systems-partnership\u003e)\n- Cooper's engineering blog says it rebuilt the product around a general-purpose agent with sandboxes, browser use, memory and skills, retiring its workflow engines (source: \u003chttps://www.askcooper.ai/blog/specialize-the-context-not-the-harness\u003e)\n- Cooper Labs published its own Insurance Agent Benchmark on 16 September 2026, comparing 17 models with and without Cooper's harness on 166 documents. The results are the vendor's (source: \u003chttps://www.askcooper.ai/labs/insurance-agent-benchmark\u003e)\n- The home page claims $970M+ in premiums processed and 99.2 per cent form-fill accuracy, and Mandl's post says more than $1 billion. Both are vendor claims, unchecked\n\n- #20 of 21 in Best workflow automation platforms with APIs for AI agents: https://www.anchorterminal.com/best/workflow-automation/index.md\n- All 154 workflows comparisons: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/workflow-automation/index.md\n\n## Compare\n\n- [Activepieces API + MCP vs Cooper (Mandl)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/activepieces-vs-mandl-cooper.md): C 57.7 vs F 16.4\n- [Microsoft Copilot Studio MCP vs Cooper (Mandl)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/copilot-studio-mcp-vs-mandl-cooper.md): D 53.1 vs F 16.4\n- [Gumloop vs Cooper (Mandl)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/gumloop-vs-mandl-cooper.md): C 61.6 vs F 16.4\n- [Kestra vs Cooper (Mandl)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/kestra-vs-mandl-cooper.md): B 63.6 vs F 16.4\n- [Make API + MCP vs Cooper (Mandl)](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/make-vs-mandl-cooper.md): C 58.7 vs F 16.4\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Motive Agents](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-motive-agents.md): F 16.4 vs F 24.3\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs n8n API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-n8n.md): F 16.4 vs D 53.1\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Node-RED](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-node-red.md): F 16.4 vs C 61\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Paragon ActionKit + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-paragon.md): F 16.4 vs D 47.5\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Pipedream API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-pipedream.md): F 16.4 vs B 65.5\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Microsoft Power Automate](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-power-automate.md): F 16.4 vs B 62\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Prismatic](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-prismatic.md): F 16.4 vs C 59.1\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Tray.ai API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-tray.md): F 16.4 vs C 55.5\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Windmill API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-windmill.md): F 16.4 vs C 55.9\n- [Cooper (Mandl) vs Workato API + MCP](https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/mandl-cooper-vs-workato.md): F 16.4 vs C 58\n\n## Verify this listing\n\nFor the vendor. The badge or a plain link to this page verifies the listing, from a page on askcooper.ai or one of its subdomains. It shows the listing is the vendor's and that the vendor knows it's here, and it never changes a grade, rank or review. The vendor sends the page's address to `POST https://www.anchorterminal.com/api/v1/verify` as `{\"slug\": \"mandl-cooper\", \"url\": \"…\"}`, or calls the `verify_listing` tool at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp. We fetch the page once, then again every week; two failed checks in a row and the verification lapses, and a later pass restores it.
