Swiss-based ICT startup Humbrela has received €161,000 (CHF 150,000)
from Venture Kick to advance the development of its AI-driven platform, which
unifies insurance and warranty data and helps brokers, wholesale brokers and
Managing General Agents (MGAs) better support their customers.
Today, insurance information is spread across emails, portals, PDFs,
credit card benefits and embedded products. This fragmentation makes it
difficult for brokers to access structured data and provide timely, accurate
advice to their clients. Because insurance involves risk, money and emotion,
customers continue to rely on human advisors.
At the same time, with general AI
models achieving only around 52 per cent accuracy on insurance-specific
content, the industry requires tools built specifically for its complexity
rather than generic chatbots.
Humbrela addresses this challenge by building a unified intelligence
layer that consolidates policies and warranties, automatically identifies key
protections and translates complex clauses into clear, actionable insights for
insurance professionals.
Co-founded by Semchs Zaidi (CEO), Simon Mazas (CTO), Mathieu Chabasse
(CPO) and Sarah El Abshihy (Legal Counsel), Humbrela offers an all-in-one
solution designed to streamline insurance administration and strengthen
collaboration with insurers. It is aimed at all types of policyholders and can
be used to complete, organise or consolidate different kinds of coverage (such
as health, motor or household insurance), making the process simpler and more
cost-effective.
The company has already onboarded its first brokers in Switzerland and
France and is in advanced discussions with wholesale brokers and MGAs across
Europe.
The newly secured funding will be used to
improve Humbrela’s AI models for policy understanding and risk-gap detection,
expand integrations with insurers, warranty providers and TPAs, strengthen
compliance across EU, Swiss and UK markets, and support the company’s expansion
with brokers, wholesale brokers and MGAs.
