Company mission
Highwing's mission is to enable insurance professionals to get off an endless treadmill of paperwork and focus on what they really care about: helping their clients manage risk.
Our take
Data is vital to insurance brokers and carriers, but without the right tools, using and sharing that data is very challenging. Highwing solves this problem with its open data platform.
Highwing's operating system connects brokers and carriers, and improves submission transparency. It also accelerates the marketing process. The platform's ability to speed up and streamline the entire commercial insurance cycle has paid off. Highwing have attracted considerable funding, which is testament to industry confidence in its platform, and helped to accelerate adoption and outreach.
The insurtech space is growing every year, and becoming increasingly competitive. However, with the continued growth of the US commercial insurance market, Highwing is likely to see impressive expansion in the coming years.
