Cowbell vs Relm Insurance

Cowbell markets U.S. cyber and specialty products to small and midsize businesses and middle-market organizations. Product appetite varies: Prime 100 and Prime 100 Pro target businesses up to $100 million in revenue, while Prime 250 and Prime Tech extend to businesses up to $1 billion. ^{10,11,12,13,16}

Relm markets AI insurance both to businesses developing and selling AI products and to organizations using or embedding third-party AI. The reviewed product pages do not specify a minimum funding round or revenue threshold. ^28,29,31

Cowbell's materials name Palomar Specialty Insurance Company for Prime 100 and Prime 100 Pro, Palomar and Chaucer Specialty Insurance Company for Prime 250, and Chaucer for Prime One. Prime Plus and Prime Tech Plus name only A-rated carrier paper, while the Select Plus page says Zurich admitted paper without naming the issuing legal entity. ^{11,12,13,14,15,17,18,7}

Relm’s fronting announcement names Trisura Specialty Insurance Company in connection with US digital-asset risks, including D&O, cyber, technology E&O and crime. A fronting insurer issues the policy while another insurer supplies risk capacity. This announcement does not establish Trisura as the issuer of every Relm product or of a California AI policy. ³²

Cowbell publishes producer and surplus-lines license lists covering all 50 states and the District of Columbia, but a license is not product availability. Current materials separately describe Prime 100 Pro in 47 states, Prime 250 nationwide on surplus or excess paper, and Prime Tech surplus-lines availability in all 50 states. ^5,6,12,13,16

Relm’s legal page lists California insurance producer license 6013054 for Relm US Insurance Solutions Inc. This is company-reported and was not independently verified in a regulator record; that row does not list a California surplus-lines license. ²⁴

The reviewed AI product, US MGA and legal pages do not establish the issuing insurer, admitted or surplus-lines status, or placing broker for a California NOVAAI, PONTAAI or RESCAAI policy. California product availability remains to be confirmed for the applicant. ^24,25,28

Cowbell describes continuous risk ratings, policyholder insights, security connectors, cybersecurity training and resiliency support alongside its cyber products. Some services are complimentary or limited to a trial or first policy year; managed detection, penetration testing, identity monitoring and compliance support also appear as subscription services for qualified customers. ^22,11,15

Cowbell's FAQ directs policyholders to their agent for cancellation and directs agents to Cowbell for endorsements. It describes different renewal workflows: Prime 100 proposals are generated roughly 60 days before expiration, while Prime 250 requires a signed renewal application and underwriting review before a quote is released. ²⁰

The reviewed contact and terms pages provide general-inquiry and complaint channels but do not explain a customer self-service portal, certificate turnaround, endorsement process or renewal timetable. Ask which tasks your broker, the MGA and the issuing insurer will handle. ^33,35

Cowbell says its in-house cyber claims team and incident-response panel are available around the clock. Its public intake instructions ask for the policy number or company name, the incident date and details, and a point of contact; coverage and claim payment still depend on the issuing insurer and policy. ^21,11,14

Relm says its claims team manages claims and offers a dedicated concierge within 24 hours of notification. This is a company service statement, not an independently measured response or settlement record. Its terms name Crawford & Co. for global claims response and KSW for US response; confirm the notice instructions in the actual policy. ^34,35
