Ki

Ki operates a digital underwriting platform for the Lloyd's specialty insurance market. Its algorithmically powered underwriting provides quotes in seconds and lets brokers request capacity offers from several capacity partners at once, in one place. The platform also supports tracking of FONs, renewal management, client programme drafting and automatic renewal indications.

Ki's customers are insurance brokers, which use the platform to access capacity for their clients. The company is developed with Google Cloud, UCL and Brit, and is backed by Blackstone and Fairfax, according to its website. Its website states that it launched in 2021 and underwrote more than US$400m Gross Written Premium in its first year, and that this doubled the following year.

Ki is based in London and is part of the Lloyd's ecosystem. Its open job listings are all in London and cover engineering and machine learning roles (including MLOps, algorithm and application security), product management, underwriting, actuarial, finance and internal audit.
