Alliance Risk describes Tech E&O as covering failure to perform or deliver, errors in deliverables (including AI outputs that are factually wrong or biased), unmet specifications, unintentional IP infringement, product failure and data loss caused by the company's own mistakes, while excluding intentional wrongdoing, bodily injury or property damage, and cyberattacks, which it says require separate cyber coverage. ²Company-reported. Tech E&O page, "What Tech E&O Insurance Covers" and "Does NOT Cover" sections and the E&O-vs-cyber comparison; the issued policy and declarations control actual terms.

Vouch's educational article says tech E&O covers claims arising from service errors or failures, professional negligence, missed deliverables or deadlines, breach of contract or warranty, accidental intellectual-property infringement, and third-party data-breach liability tied to a vulnerability in the company's product, plus legal defense, settlements and judgments. It excludes bodily injury or property damage (covered by general liability), intentional wrongdoing, criminal acts, employment claims and cyber incidents affecting the policyholder's own systems. ⁸Company-reported.

Alliance Risk describes typical Tech E&O limits ranging from $250K/$500K for a freelancer up to $2M/$3M+ for a SaaS company with many users, and cites $2,500 as a standard deductible for small firms. ²Company-reported. Tech E&O page, "How to Buy Tech E&O Insurance" and cost sections; illustrative ranges, not a specific quote.
