## Overview

Botsurance is a digital motor insurance brokerage serving individual vehicle owners in Nigeria. The company connects customers to licensed underwriters through a web platform and an AI chatbot, issuing insurance certificates that can be checked against the Nigerian Insurance Industry Database (NIID). It was founded in 2020 to address the country's counterfeit auto insurance problem, where a large share of motorists carry fake or unverifiable papers.

Botsurance sells statutory third-party motor cover and comprehensive auto insurance for private cars, commercial vehicles, motorcycles, tricycles, and trucks. Distribution runs partly through a network of community agents who earn commissions per transaction, extending reach into areas without traditional insurance agents, alongside a distribution partnership with mobile money provider Kudi that lets customers buy and verify policies at agent locations across the country.

The company is a small team based in Lagos, Nigeria, operating through a Delaware-registered holding entity, Botsurance Inc., and a Nigerian operating entity, Botsurance Ltd. It has partnered with Flutterwave for payment processing and used AWS Activate credits for cloud infrastructure. No external funding rounds have been publicly disclosed.
