Quickfire 0.2.30 - Release Notes

This release focuses on eliminating friction where it actually hurts: forms, data entry, and handoffs between systems. The headline features introduce a new way to manage and complete forms inside Quickfire, paired with a browser companion that removes copy-paste entirely.

Here's what's new in version 0.2.30...

OS X Alpha Release

Native Mac application is now available.

The macOS alpha exists to validate platform compatibility, uncover OS-specific issues, and guide future development—not to replace the Windows build yet. If you depend on Quickfire for daily, time-sensitive work, Windows remains the recommended platform for now. That said, early testers are encouraged to explore the macOS version, kick the tires, and provide feedback. Your input directly helps shape stability, feature parity, and polish as the macOS build matures.

 

Forms Library

What it does

  • Store all commonly used forms in one organized library

  • Maintain revision history so changes are tracked and recoverable

  • Attach forms directly to clients, renewals, or records

  • Fill, save, and reuse forms without overwriting prior versions

How it works

When you open a form from the library, Quickfire asks which client it should be attached to. From there, you can instantly prefill the form using existing client data, complete any remaining fields, and save it back with full revision tracking.

Why it matters

  • Brokers keep every application, supplemental, and worksheet at their fingertips

  • MGAs and carriers can manage proprietary forms with clear version control

  • Everyone stops duplicating files and wondering which version is “the real one”

Forms stop being loose files and start becoming part of the workflow.

 

Firefill

Firefill is a companion Chrome extension built specifically for Quickfire workflows. It turns repetitive web form entry into a fast, accurate, one-click experience.

What Firefill does

  • Detects form fields on carrier, MGA, and third-party websites

  • Pulls the correct data directly from Quickfire

  • Fills complex forms in seconds instead of minutes

  • Keeps entries consistent across portals and systems

Why it’s different

Firefill doesn’t guess. It doesn’t scrape random data. It uses the same source of truth you already trust inside Quickfire. No more copying names, addresses, FEINs, classifications, or policy details between tabs. Firefill watches the form, understands the structure, and fills it correctly when you tell it to. This is copy-paste, officially retired.

 

Installing Firefill

Firefill is currently available as a manual install, with a free Chrome Web Store listing coming soon.

When included with Quickfire, the Firefill extension files are installed locally on your machine, typically under:

C:\Quickfire\Firefill\

(or the configured Quickfire installation directory if customized)

This folder contains the extension’s manifest and required assets.


How to load Firefill as an unpacked Chrome extension

  1. Open Google Chrome

  2. Navigate to:

     
    chrome://extensions
  3. Enable Developer mode (toggle in the top-right corner)

  4. Click Load unpacked

  5. Select the Firefill folder:

     
    C:\Quickfire\Firefill\
  6. Confirm the extension is enabled

Once loaded, Firefill is ready to use immediately with Quickfire.


Chrome Web Store availability

Firefill is in the final review process and will be available for free in the Chrome Web Store soon. Once published, installation will be as simple as clicking “Add to Chrome,” with no manual steps required.

Until then, the unpacked install provides full functionality.
