Overview
GAIN LIFE -- now rebranded as Crosstie as of February 2026 -- is a Boston-based insurtech that provides AI-powered workflow automation for property and casualty insurance operations. Founded in 2014 at Harvard University's Innovation Lab, the company has been live with customers since 2020 and spent years building a configurable workflow automation platform embedded directly into claims and operational workflows.
The platform serves insurance carriers, third-party administrators (TPAs), and self-insured organizations seeking to streamline claims resolution through AI and automation. Crosstie reduces administrative burden for adjusters, lowers claim costs, and improves outcomes for claimants and policyholders. The company has delivered measurable results including 25% cost reduction for medical-only claims and USD 18,997 savings per complex lost-time claim.
In February 2026, GAIN LIFE rebranded to Crosstie to reflect its evolution beyond its original focus on disability claims into a comprehensive, integrated workflow automation platform for the full insurance lifecycle.
