Embroker offers a digital platform that simplifies commercial insurance purchasing and focuses on complex, industry-specific lines such as Directors & Officers, Employment Practices Liability, Cyber, and Professional Liability. It uses predictive modeling and proprietary technology to fully automate underwriting and create tailored policies and premiums. Embroker plans to become a full‑stack insurtech by building its own insurance carrier and is investing in Embroker Access to enable partner agencies and wholesalers to offer its products. The company reported strong operating metrics in 2021: surpassing $20M in gross written premium in Q1, achieving over 100% retention, growing its digital products more than 300% year-to-date, and earning an NPS of 77. All digital products are underwritten on Embroker’s platform and are backed by A+ rated reinsurers including Munich Re and Everest Re. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in San Francisco, Embroker has raised more than $140M to date and will use the new funding to accelerate system building and product expansion.
