Company mission

To help everyone protect what matters most through advanced technology and tailored advice.

Our take

Life insurance is deeply human in purpose, yet historically slow and complex in practice. It's a massive US market still driven by advisors, but burdened by manual processes and fragmented systems. As expectations shift toward speed and better client experiences, the industry is being pushed to evolve, not by removing advisors, but by finally modernizing the tools they rely on.

So, Modern Life was built for this shift. As an AI-powered life insurance brokerage, it embeds intelligence across the advisor-client journey, from underwiting and quoting to recommendations and poicy delivery. By analyzing medical and financial data quickly and bringing insurance, tax, and planning considerations into one platform, it reduces friction and complexity, giving advisors more time to focus on their client relationships.

The company's $2OM Series A, bringing total funding to $35M, reflects strong confidence from both investors and major insurers. And with regulatory foundations in place and plans to expand partnerships and product capabilities, the company is very well positioned to scale further.
