What Are the Key Differences Between Amelia Risk and Corgi Tech E&O Insurance?

Instant Online Policy vs Broker-Shopped Quotes

Corgi sells Tech E&O as a standalone policy you can quote and bind online, and includes it in every startup package from pre-seed up. Amelia Risk follows a four-step broker process: gather your information, approach insurers, review quotes with you and let you decide. Choose Corgi if you are an early-stage startup that needs cover today and fits a standard form; choose Amelia Risk if your contracts need specific wording and you want quotes from several insurers. [8] [7] [3]

Base-Form Exclusions vs Unpublished Terms

Corgi’s standard policy excludes claims arising solely from breach of contract or SLA failure, intellectual property infringement, data-breach liability and AI-related claims; you buy endorsements to add them back. It publishes sample limits of $1 million per claim and $2 million aggregate, a $10,000 retention and defense costs inside the limit. Amelia Risk publishes no exclusions or limits, so its terms depend on the insurer it finds. If you sell AI features or promise uptime, price Corgi with those endorsements before comparing. [8] [5]

Unrated Default Insurer vs Insurer Chosen by Underwriting

Corgi’s Tech E&O is written mainly by Technology Risk Retention Group, a member-owned insurer with no AM Best rating; if a customer contract requires an A-rated insurer, Corgi can place you with rated partner insurers instead, if you qualify. Amelia Risk says the insurer depends on underwriting among those it works with. [8] [5]

What Should You Confirm in Amelia Risk and Corgi Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask Corgi which endorsements your quote includes for contract, IP, data-breach and AI claims. [8]
  • Check your customer contracts for an insurer-rating requirement before accepting Corgi’s default insurer, and ask Amelia Risk which insurer it approached. [8] [5]
  • Get Amelia Risk’s limits and retention in writing to compare with Corgi’s $1 million / $2 million and $10,000. [8] [5]
  • Ask both whether defense costs reduce the limit. [8]
