  • Maximum Information

    Participated · Seed · Dec 2025

    Founded in 2020, Maximum Information is developing the first vendor-agnostic middleware layer for catastrophe risk analytics. Its flagship SaaS platform, MagniPhi, plugs into existing cat-modelling workflows and lets users rapidly compare, stress-test and unify outputs from multiple modelling providers. By exposing the assumptions inside each model, the software enables faster and more reliable underwriting and risk-transfer decisions for re/insurers, brokers and financial institutions. The company positions itself as an analytical foundation for closing the $263 billion global natural-catastrophe protection gap. With natural-cat economic losses reaching $417 billion in 2024 and less than 40 % insured, management believes demand for transparent, vendor-agnostic tools will accelerate. Maximum Information intends to capitalise on this generational opportunity by providing orchestration infrastructure rather than another proprietary model. Financial performance metrics such as revenue or customer count were not disclosed, but the company has now secured seed financing to accelerate product development and customer onboarding.
