Delos

Delos Insurance Solutions is a pioneering technology-powered insurance company founded in San Francisco in 2017, dedicated to addressing the growing wildfire insurance crisis in California. As a Managing General Agent (MGA), Delos has developed a groundbreaking approach to homeowners insurance by integrating climate and catastrophe modeling expertise at every level of the organization. The company leverages proprietary AI risk models, developed by world-renowned professors, that have consistently outperformed industry standards in predicting wildfire risk.

What sets Delos apart is its commitment to becoming the first insurance company to actively help protect customers from wildfires, rather than simply avoiding high-risk areas like traditional insurers. Using satellite imagery, artificial intelligence, and patented risk assessment technology, Delos is able to identify insurable homes within territories that other insurance providers have deemed too risky. The company currently writes policies on behalf of insurance carriers rated 'A' by AM Best, providing peace of mind to policyholders while maintaining strong financial backing.

Delos has already made significant market impact, insuring more than 25,000 policyholders in California and writing $40 billion in total insurance value. The company's innovative approach has earned industry recognition, including the MGA/MGU of the Year award from Insurance Insider US and selection as one of CB Insights' Top 100 Global Fintech Companies for 2024. With a growing team of over 30 employees and recent Series A funding of $9 million, Delos continues to expand its capacity to serve homeowners in wildfire-stressed areas across California, demonstrating that technology and data science can solve previously intractable insurance challenges.
