Mercury Insurance
Mercury built a nearly $6 billion insurance business by pairing disciplined underwriting with thousands of independent agents. Now it is adding apps, telematics and online service without abandoning the human network that still produces most of its premiums.
Delos Insurance Solutions
Delos Insurance Solutions is a San Francisco insurtech and managing general agent that uses satellite imagery, fire science, and machine learning to insure California homeowners in wildfire-prone areas that traditional carriers have abandoned. Founded by two aerospace engineers, Delos models wildfire risk at the individual-property level using NASA Earth-observation data, climate science, and hundreds of risk parameters, allowing it to write coverage on homes the rest of the market deems uninsurable.
