  • Actually a great idea, wishing you guys success.
  • how do you go about getting a license in a week to place those types of coverages in various states/contries? Are you a broke or MGA or something else?
  • Wow, insurance that is actually insurance. Cool approach and congrats!

    There is a certain dog-themed startup that took the approach of selling Not Insurance™ through a Risk Retention Group… I am glad to see you did not choose that approach.

  • Have you already gone through licensing and credentialing through the Division of Insurances in various states? Or are you just gauging interest at this point before the licensing steps? Asking because there is a whole E&O element on liability for you as the middleman.

  • Ran two applicants through the drafter. Sharpest one: rewrite the story from a software company to a 130 kg robot that injures people in public, and the package re-drafts to include General Liability badged "from your story", but it stays unchecked while the earlier software selections stay ticked, so "Continue with 3 coverages" submits the robot company without GL. It also adds Workers' Comp on employees never mentioned (Headcount left blank), and the "ask a coverage question" box deflects even its own example. Happy to email the full write-up with screenshots, nick@platilus.com.
