## Overview

Mod Advisor is a workers' compensation claims analysis software platform that simplifies experience modification (mod) rating analysis for insurance professionals. Founded by Todd Thams, a 20-year insurance broker, the platform was conceived in 2020 and launched in 2021 to BrokerTech Ventures partners after 15 months of development. Thams sold his family's nearly 90-year-old insurance agency in 2022 to pursue Mod Advisor full time.

The platform transforms complex, multi-page loss runs into clean, actionable dashboards using drag-and-drop import tools that automatically extract data from PDF and Excel files. Users can model alternative scenarios, forecast revised mod scores, and generate up to 30 reports from imported data. Mod Advisor serves brokers, carriers, PEOs, and businesses seeking to reduce workers' compensation costs through data-driven insights.

Mod Advisor was accepted into the BrokerTech Ventures Accelerator as part of the 2022 cohort, gaining access to some of the largest insurance brokerages in the country. The platform has been recognized as one of the most revolutionary products in the insurtech space, helping agencies differentiate themselves through in-depth workers' compensation analysis.
