What Are the Key Differences Between CNA and Risklytics Tech E&O Insurance?

AI policy review and stated limit expectations

Risklytics says it reads every policy form for AI exclusions before binding and cites a typical Tech E&O request of $1 million to $5 million per claim. CNA describes technology E&O intended to support contractual requirements, but its reviewed claims do not state comparable limits or an AI-form review. If your model output can create customer losses, ask CNA for explicit AI wording and compare its available limit with Risklytics’ stated typical ask, which is not a guaranteed offer. [3] [9]

Carrier and placement roles

Risklytics Insurance Services places coverage with outside carriers and says it does not underwrite; the issuing carrier appears on the bound policy. CNA describes its own Technology E&O offering but the claims reviewed here do not name the insurer for a specific quote. The route therefore changes who negotiates and who carries the risk. Request the proposed CNA declarations and Risklytics carrier identity, then compare the forms and any broker fee or commission disclosures. [3] [9]
