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

Policy structure and continuity

HUB brokers technology E&O for startups through established software, hardware and digital-media businesses. Its E&O description says policies can be structured with prior-acts coverage and an extended reporting period, which may matter when changing carriers or closing a business. Foxquilt lists technology and creative classes in broader professional E&O, but the reviewed page does not describe tech-specific continuity terms. Ask both brokers to show how the proposed retroactive date and any tail apply to your claims-made history. [5] [6] [3]

Customized limits and access

HUB’s general E&O page describes claims-notification steps, while Foxquilt’s product page offers a digital quote and buy path for its broader E&O product. These pages emphasize different stages of the buyer experience; ask each provider who handles a claim and request the proposed technology wording and limits before comparing quotes. [5] [3]

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

  • Ask HUB and Foxquilt for the issuing carrier, per-claim and aggregate limits, retroactive date, tail option and technology-specific exclusions. Ask Foxquilt specifically whether prior acts or extended reporting are available in the offered form. [5] [3]

HUB’s general E&O page describes prior-acts and tail options, while its scope does not give technology-specific examples beyond naming technology as a served industry. Foxquilt lists technology and creative businesses within broader Professional Liability / E&O; a separate technology form is not established.
