What Are the Key Differences Between Coverdash and Relm Insurance Tech E&O Insurance?

Dedicated Fintech Form vs General Tech E&O Bought Online

Relm says standard tech E&O isn’t always enough for fintech companies and offers a separate Fintech Errors and Omissions product for blockchain-related vulnerabilities and heavier regulatory scrutiny. Coverdash is a broker that sells tech E&O through a digital quote-to-purchase process to businesses that build, sell or service technology, naming SaaS companies, dev shops, IT providers and consultants, with no fintech-specific form. Choose Relm if you are a fintech or blockchain company; choose Coverdash if you are a general software or IT business that wants to buy online. [9] [4] [5]

Cyber as an Add-On vs Cyber as a Separate Product

Coverdash lets you add cyber alongside tech E&O in the same purchase. Relm sells cyber as a distinct product and warns that one doesn’t protect you from the exposures the other addresses, so plan to buy both. [4] [9]

Groundless-Claim Defense vs Negligent-Advice Cover

Coverdash describes claims that your software didn’t perform, a project ran late or off spec, or client data was mishandled, and says defense costs apply even to a groundless claim. Relm names service or contract failures, software glitches affecting customers, and negligent advice or failure to disclose product limitations, typically paying defense, settlements and judgments. [4] [9]

  • Ask Coverdash whether cyber is on the same purchase, and ask Relm how its tech E&O and cyber policies fit together. [4] [9]
  • Get the issuing insurer and dollar limits from both; neither names an insurer or publishes amounts. [4] [9]
