What Are the Key Differences Between Corgi and Zurich U.S. Tech E&O Insurance?

Standard Terms and Endorsements

Corgi says its standard Tech E&O excludes claims solely arising from contract or SLA failure, IP infringement, data-breach liability, and AI-related claims, while offering endorsements for AI, copyright, contract carveback, and subcontracted services. Zurich describes technology E&O for product and service makers but does not detail these exclusions in the reviewed record. Ask for each endorsement and its price before comparing base premiums.

Limits and Purchase Route

Corgi publishes illustrative limits up to $1 million per claim and $2 million aggregate with a $10,000 retention, and says its standalone Tech E&O can be quoted and bound online. Zurich describes modular E&O and crisis management as an endorsement, without a published limit or online quote path. Match limits, defense-cost treatment, and retention before comparing price.

What Should You Confirm in Corgi and Zurich U.S. Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask Corgi to price the contract, IP, data-breach, or AI endorsements you need and show defense costs against the limit; ask Zurich for its exclusions, limit, retention, and endorsement quote. [4] [10]

Corgi offers instant-quote Tech E&O with exclusions for contract, IP, data breach, and AI claims that may be addressed by endorsements. Zurich describes technology E&O with crisis management available to qualified customers by endorsement.
