What Are the Key Differences Between Embroker and Foxquilt Tech E&O Insurance?

Eligibility and stated limits

Embroker’s broker program targets private, for-profit technology companies under $300 million in revenue, requires MFA above $5 million revenue, and excludes crypto, blockchain and cannabis businesses. It advertises up to $5 million for most insuring agreements, with specific sublimits. Foxquilt lists technology and creative classes within broader Professional Liability / E&O. Buyers can compare Embroker’s stated broker-program appetite and limits with the business profile and terms presented in any Foxquilt quote. [3] [5]

Blended coverage and exclusions

Embroker describes Tech E&O and cyber as a blended policy available through a retail page and broker portal; its public retail and broker materials differ on IP wording. Foxquilt lists technology and creative businesses within a broader professional E&O product. For software warranties or code obligations, compare the forms and endorsements proposed for the same services rather than infer coverage from the product names. [4] [3] [5]

What Should You Confirm in Embroker and Foxquilt Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask Embroker which eligibility path applies, whether MFA is required, and how the policy resolves the public IP wording conflict and each sublimit. Ask Foxquilt for its tech-specific form, cyber terms, limits and exclusions for the same business profile. [3] [4] [5]

Areas of coverage

Embroker

Retail and broker-facing page descriptions; not a statement about the issuing insurer.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • eligibility: Embroker's broker program targets private, for-profit technology companies (including fintech, AI, digital health, HR tech and SaaS) with under $300 million in revenue, requires multifactor authentication for accounts above $5 million in revenue, and excludes businesses involved in crypto, blockchain or cannabis. Broker Access appetite page; not a guarantee of eligibility for a particular business, and may differ from retail underwriting appetite.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: Embroker lists coverage for cyber liability (data breaches, cyber theft, cyber vandalism), professional negligence from product or tech errors, software or hardware defects, breach of contract, and losses from a delayed product launch.
