Why Corgi Beats Vouch:
Tailored Startup Insurance Fast

What is Corgi? The AI-Powered Carrier for Founders

Corgi is the first full-stack, AI-native insurance carrier, built by founders, for founders. Being a "full-stack carrier" means we don't just connect you to a policy. We are the policy. We underwrite our own insurance, which gives us absolute control over speed, flexibility, and our ability to design highly specific coverage. We use AI to automate underwriting and deliver the fastest business insurance, ever. Backed by a recent $108 million funding round, our mission is to revolutionize how startups get protected

What is Vouch? A Modern Broker for Startups

Vouch is an insurance brokerage that has simplified the buying process for startups. They offer a streamlined digital platform and have earned a strong reputation for service. As a broker, Vouch connects founders with policies from other, more traditional insurance carriers. While this is a major improvement on the old model, it still introduces dependencies and delays that a true carrier like Corgi eliminates.

1. Unmatched Speed to Keep Deals Moving

A signed enterprise contract is on the table, waiting on one thing: a Certificate of Insurance (COI). Every hour you wait is a risk. Because we are the carrier, we deliver "instant bind" capability. You can get a quote, purchase a policy, and download your COI in minutes, not days.

As Penny Chen, CEO of Pax (YC S24), puts it,

Don't let insurance paperwork kill your pipeline. Secure your coverage in minutes and get back to building.

Example scenario:

A YC company needs D&O + E&O within 48 hours to close a seed round. They pick Corgi because they can bind instantly.

2. Truly Tailored Errors and Omissions Insurance Technology

Generic insurance policies were not written for LLMs, algorithmic bias, or data poisoning. Standard errors and omissions insurance technology coverage often fails to address the unique liabilities of a modern tech stack, leaving you exposed to risks you may not even see coming.

We engineered our policies specifically for these emerging threats. We understand your AI stack and offer specialized liability coverage for AI startups that protects you from the unique challenges of model hallucinations and training data disputes. While brokers offer broad tech company insurance coverage, our policies are built by experts who live and breathe your world. We are protecting the future of intelligence because we understand it from the inside out.

3. A Scalable Partner from Day One to IPO

Your insurance needs evolve. A pre-seed company doesn't need the same coverage as a growth-stage enterprise. Over-insuring wastes precious capital, while under-insuring invites catastrophic risk.

Corgi's modular platform is designed for every stage of your journey. From Pre-Seed to Series A and beyond, you can toggle coverage modules as you scale, ensuring you never pay for more than you need. With a stable foundation of a $40 million annual revenue run rate and significant financial backing, we are built to be your long-term partner, from your first hire to your IPO. We are dedicated to backing the builders of the future.
