About Us
PolicyFly allows insurers to create digital storefronts to sell and manage specialty insurance. What’s specialty insurance? Think wildfire, flood, trucking fleets, cargo, satellites or even musical instruments.
Getting coverage for these hard-to-insure things is actually, really hard. Insurance agents spend all day emailing PDFs to companies and closing deals usually takes weeks, but with PolicyFly, an insurer can offer up a quote instantly.
PolicyFly supports any data model for any customer's needs and flexes and bends to the demands of an individual insurance program. Think of PolicyFly as a developer framework that enables us to build complex automated insurance projects. That's where you come in.
