What was said
… Here's what makes SelectQuote different: their licensed insurance agents work for you, not the insurance company. They compare options across multiple carriers to find you the right coverage at the lowest price. They've been doing this for nearly 40 years and have helped over 2 million people find coverage. Even if you have health issues they can help: high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease. Their agents know which carriers will give you the best rate for your specific situation. …

Supports. A 10-Q filing states that SelectQuote's insurance distribution business 'has operated for nearly 40 years.'[2]
Supports. The SelectQuote investor presentation lists '40+ Years in Operation' and dates the company's founding to 1985.[3]
Supports. Multiple sources, including the SEC-filed press release, Wikipedia, and the company's About page, give 1985 as the founding year, which places the company at roughly 40 years of operation in 2026.[1][4][5]
Context. The company's About page says 'When SelectQuote started 35 years ago,' which conflicts with the 1985 founding date and is best read as an error on that page.[5]
