AIG vs Embroker: How Do They Compare for Tech E&O Insurance?

AIG markets Technology Services E&O as coverage for technology service providers. AIG is the marketing name; its legal footer says products are written or provided by subsidiaries or affiliates and does not identify the issuer for an individual policy. ³Company-reported. AIG’s U.S. Professional Liability page’s distinct Technology Services description. This is not a named policy form or issuer assignment.

Embroker sells Tech E&O/Cyber as a single blended policy directly to technology companies and also distributes it through appointed brokers via its Embroker Access broker portal. ^7,8Company-reported. Retail and broker-facing page descriptions; not a statement about the issuing insurer.

AIG identifies technology service providers as the target audience for this offering. It does not publish a complete eligible-occupation list or state-by-state appetite on the reviewed page. ³Company-reported. Target audience stated in AIG’s Technology Services section; applicant eligibility remains underwriting-specific.

Embroker's broker program targets private, for-profit technology companies (including fintech, AI, digital health, HR tech and SaaS) with under $300 million in revenue, requires multifactor authentication for accounts above $5 million in revenue, and excludes businesses involved in crypto, blockchain or cannabis. ⁸Company-reported. Broker Access appetite page; not a guarantee of eligibility for a particular business, and may differ from retail underwriting appetite.

AIG describes coverage for claims alleging errors or omissions in the performance of technology services, including third-party economic-loss allegations. The marketing description does not establish that a specific claim is covered; policy definitions, exclusions and conditions control. ³Company-reported. AIG’s marketing description of Technology Services E&O; no policy form or endorsement was reviewed.

Embroker lists coverage for cyber liability (data breaches, cyber theft, cyber vandalism), professional negligence from product or tech errors, software or hardware defects, breach of contract, and losses from a delayed product launch. ⁷Company-reported. Retail product-page What's covered section; the issued policy and declarations control.

Embroker's retail page says the policy excludes criminal activity, financial insolvency, copyright infringement or libel claims, and intellectual property infringement, while its broker program advertises software code infringement coverage as an included feature. ^7,8Conflicting sources. Retail What's not included section versus the broker program's Additional features list; the public descriptions do not reconcile this difference, so confirm the proposed form's exact IP-related coverage on a quote.

The reviewed page does not state standard limits, retentions or deductibles for Technology Services E&O. Confirm them in the quote and issued policy. ³Not publicly disclosed. AIG’s U.S. Professional Liability page reviewed 2026-09-30; no buyer-specific quote or policy was reviewed.

Embroker's broker program advertises limits up to $5 million for most insuring agreements, with sub-limits of $1 million for reputational harm and telecommunications fraud, and $500,000 for social engineering, funds transfer fraud and bricking (which includes a $100,000 betterment sub-limit). ⁸Company-reported. Broker Access Coverage Highlights; retail underwriting limits were not separately disclosed on the reviewed retail page.

Embroker offers excess Tech E&O/Cyber coverage above a primary policy, but its excess product cannot sit above an Embroker primary policy — buyers need an underlying Tech E&O or Tech E&O + Cyber policy from a different carrier before applying for excess. ⁷Company-reported. Retail 'What is excess Tech E&O / Cyber Insurance?' and 'How to apply' sections; a related excess-specific offering exists for management-liability but is treated separately here.

AIG says its professional-liability claims team includes in-house professionals and third-party experts, collaborates with clients during claims, and uses claims data to help evaluate and mitigate loss. These are general company-reported professional-liability services, not a guaranteed outcome for a technology E&O claim. ³Company-reported. AIG Professional Liability page claims description; technology-specific service standards are not stated.
