Our mission is to create the first comprehensive platform that combines top-tier insurance offerings with world-class software so commercial businesses can manage risk and prevent losses. We’re starting with the $10T commercial construction industry.
Our thesis is that technology can solve the sustainability challenges facing commercial insurance, and to accomplish this we’re building a platform that incentivizes our clients to adopt the best tools when they buy our coverage. Across construction and other commercial markets, technology is available but fundamentally underutilized, despite the potential for improving loss outcomes and stopping this crisis.
To date, Shepherd has raised $20M+ from top tier VCs including Y-Combinator, Susa Ventures, Spark Capital, Costanoa Ventures, Era Ventures, Greenlight RE and Intact Ventures.
Shepherd is a tech-enabled MGU writing P&C insurance for the commercial construction industry. Our mission is to incentivize a safe and sustainable construction industry through innovative insurance products. Shepherd launched its first Casualty products in March of 2022, and currently has Excess and Primary Casualty lines in market on both an Admitted and Non-Admitted basis. Shepherd’s unique value is centered around speed, innovative use of data through technology partnerships, and homegrown software paired alongside insurance products.
