Specialty Insurance,
Built Differently.

Slate Risk is a next-generation E&S managing general agent. We combine decades of specialty insurance expertise with purpose-built technology to deliver faster, smarter, and more disciplined underwriting.

Founded by Industry Veterans

Slate Risk was founded by a team of seasoned professionals from industry-leading E&S carriers. With decades of combined experience in underwriting, claims, operations, and platform engineering, we are building an MGA from the ground up.

One that reflects everything we've learned about what the market needs next.

Disciplined Underwriting

A rigorous, data-informed approach to risk selection and pricing. Every decision is grounded in experience and enhanced by technology.

Built for Brokers

The best MGA relationships are built on speed, transparency, and aligned incentives. Everything we do is designed with our broker partners in mind.

01

Always Open for Business

We are committed to fast, reliable turnaround on every submission. When you send business to Slate Risk, you get a response — not silence.

02

Eliminate the Friction

We eliminate portal fatigue by automating the tedious parts of submission and quoting. No new logins, no redundant data entry; just more time placing business and serving your clients.

03

Broker-Selected Commission Tiers

Our transparent, tiered commission structure puts you in control. Choose the rate that works best for your client and your business.

04

Open Market Access

We accept submissions from wholesale brokers without exclusivity requirements. We compete on merit, not market blockers.

Purpose-Built Technology

Our platform isn't an afterthought; it's foundational. We're building modern, AI-enhanced systems designed to move at the speed our brokers expect.

Automated Submission Intake

Submissions are ingested, parsed, and routed automatically, reducing manual data entry and accelerating time to quote.

AI-Enhanced Underwriting

Our underwriters are supported by intelligent tools that surface insights, flag anomalies, and accelerate decision-making on standard risks.

Real-Time Pricing Intelligence

Dynamic, data-driven pricing ensures every quote reflects current market conditions and risk-specific factors.

Integrated Platform

Underwriting, policy administration, and claims operate on a single connected platform — no data silos, no information gaps.

Claims Done Right

Claims aren't just a cost center; they're the proving ground for every promise we make.

Our approach is resolution-focused, technology-assisted, and fully integrated with our underwriting operation. We pay claims that are owed — fast.

Resolution Over Vanity Metrics

We measure success by outcomes, not closure rates. Our adjusters are empowered and encouraged to reach fair settlements quickly.

Speed and Fairness

Prompt settlement offers are the expectation — not delays, not bureaucracy. We will not allow claims to age unnecessarily.

In-House Expertise

Led by seasoned E&S claims professionals, our team manages the claims lifecycle from first notice of loss to resolution.

Underwriting Feedback Loop

Claims outcomes directly inform our underwriting decisions. This continuous feedback cycle drives better risk selection and pricing over time.
