StartupInsurance.ai's broker of record is ContractorNerd Insurance Services, LLC.

[1](https://www.coverdash.com/coverage/tech-eo "Tech E&O Insurance") [4](https://www.startupinsurance.ai/ "Startup Insurance | Coverage that clears the review") ## Coverdash vs StartupInsurance.ai Tech E&O Insurance Compared | Criteria | Coverdash Tech E&O Insurance | StartupInsurance.ai Technology Errors & Omissions (Tech E&O) Insurance | | --- | --- | --- | | How to Apply | Coverdash describes a fully digital quote-to-purchase process for Tech E&O, with the option to add coverages such as general liability or cyber alongside it. [1](https://www.coverdash.com/coverage/tech-eo "Tech E&O Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page company information and cross-sell section..) | "Tech Errors & Omissions" is one of seven boxes on StartupInsurance.ai's online quote-intake screen, described there as coverage for "claims from your tech products or services failing." The same screen shows no separate box for general professional liability. [5](https://quotes.startupinsurance.ai/ "Apply for Startup Insurance | StartupInsurance.ai") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Initial coverage-selection screen of the quote application; the absence of a distinct professional-liability box shows how the flow packages this line, not that professional liability is unavailable..) | | Coverage Features | Coverdash describes Tech E&O as covering claims that a company's software didn't perform as promised, a project was late or didn't meet the agreed spec, or client data was mishandled or exposed through a security failure, and pays legal defense costs even for a groundless claim. [1](https://www.coverdash.com/coverage/tech-eo "Tech E&O Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Product-page coverage cards; the issued policy and declarations control actual wording, limits, exclusions and whether the policy is claims-made..)

Coverdash's coverage hub lists Tech E&O separately from its general professional liability product, targeting it specifically at technology businesses rather than professional-service firms generally. [3](https://www.coverdash.com/coverage "Coverage Hub") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Coverage hub category structure; does not establish which product a given underwriter would actually issue for a mixed-model business..) | StartupInsurance.ai says most tech E&O forms leave out coverage for accuracy warranties and uptime promises that a startup takes on by signing a customer contract, and that it reads customer contracts against the tech E&O policy before binding to catch that gap. [4](https://www.startupinsurance.ai/ "Startup Insurance | Coverage that clears the review") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Homepage "wording that still says yes" section; describes a general gap the brokerage says it looks for, not the terms of a specific StartupInsurance.ai-placed tech E&O policy..)

StartupInsurance.ai says one major carrier added a blanket AI exclusion to "D&O, E&O and fiduciary" forms at renewal; the page does not specify whether "E&O" here means technology E&O, professional E&O, or both. [4](https://www.startupinsurance.ai/ "Startup Insurance | Coverage that clears the review") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Homepage "wording that still says yes" section; the E&O reference is ambiguous between the two E&O lines the program sells, so this claim is not conclusively tech-E&O-specific..) | | Role in This Line | Coverdash arranges Tech E&O coverage as a broker rather than an insurer, placing coverage with a carrier under its standard brokerage terms. [2](https://www.coverdash.com/terms "Terms And Conditions") [1](https://www.coverdash.com/coverage/tech-eo "Tech E&O Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: General brokerage terms applied to the Tech E&O page; not specific to any one carrier or state..) | StartupInsurance.ai's coverage list places "Tech E&O and Professional Liability" as one program line, and ContractorNerd Insurance Services, LLC arranges it as agent/broker of record rather than underwriting it.
