Overview

Embea is a Berlin-based embedded insurance platform for life and health coverage, founded in 2022. The company serves fintech companies, employers, and other distribution partners who want to offer critical illness and cancer insurance directly within their existing digital products and services.

The platform delivers insurance through an API-first architecture and proprietary EmbeaCore system, with a no-code checkout option that allows partners to go live within hours. Products include cancer insurance and critical illness coverage for three conditions (cancer, stroke, heart attack), with instant policy issuance and automated digital claims processing. All insurance capacity is underwritten by established traditional carriers.

In February 2024, Embea raised EUR 4M in seed funding led by Atlantic Labs and astorya.vc, with angel participation from Jamie Hale (CEO, Ladder), Daniel Khachab (Choco), and Michael Cassau (Grover). The company operates with a seven-person team focused on pan-European expansion.
