About Risklytics.
Risklytics is a commercial insurance brokerage for robotics, autonomous vehicles and hardware in the field.
What we do
We place commercial insurance for companies whose products work in the physical world: robots on customer sites, vehicles and aircraft that drive or fly themselves, spacecraft, and the hardware and software behind them. Autonomy is being deployed faster than insurance has adapted to it.
We place through insurers who cover autonomy explicitly, read the policies ourselves, and run the whole placement so you can stay focused on the product. You tell us what you build and where it operates, in plain English, and a licensed broker is on your file until the program binds.
Who we insure
