What Are the Key Differences Between Chubb and Risklytics Inland Marine Insurance?

Construction Underwriting vs Robots Off Premises

Chubb underwrites inland marine for builders' risk, homebuilders, engineered civil and utility projects, contractors equipment fleets and leased or financed property. Risklytics is a licensed producer that places robotics equipment cover with outside carriers: a demo unit crushed at a customer's warehouse or a crated robot stolen in transit, not general liability for a bystander injured by the same robot. Choose Chubb if you need builders' risk or a construction fleet from the insurer; choose Risklytics if pilot agreements require cover on individual robots that leave your building. ¹ ² ³

Loss-Control in Premium vs Per-Unit Replacement Cost

Chubb says regular loss-control is included in the inland marine premium, with fee-based consultations available, and it offers u*writer quoting. Risklytics says the typical ask is each unit listed and insured for its replacement cost rather than a blanket figure, and the line is placeable once every unit has a real value. ¹ ²

Agent Appointment vs Online Application

You can request a Chubb quote online or have an appointed agent apply. You start Risklytics online, with no broker fee on top of premium and a licensed producer on the file until bind. Risklytics does not name the robotics carrier; Chubb is the insurer for its own products. ¹ ⁴ ²
