Overview

MyCover.ai is an embedded insurance infrastructure provider for carriers, distributors, and digital businesses operating in the African market. The company operates as an open API platform that connects businesses to licensed insurance carriers, enabling them to integrate and distribute insurance products without holding their own carrier license.

The platform delivers REST APIs, JavaScript SDKs, and no-code/low-code integration tools supporting JavaScript, ReactJS, VueJS, Android, and iOS environments. Businesses can embed insurance purchasing, renewals, and claims tracking into their own products in minutes. MyCover.ai also offers AI-powered claims management, fraud detection, and virtual vehicle inspection capabilities, covering lines including health, auto, credit life, personal accident, travel, home, gadget, and goods in transit.

Since launching in 2021, the company has processed over 50,000 policies and generated more than USD 1M in gross written premiums. It operates through a network of 30 active insurance distributors and partners with licensed carriers including Hygeia, Leadway, Sovereign Trust, AIICO Insurance, and Allianz. MyCover.ai participated in the Techstars Toronto 2022 cohort and raised a USD 1.25M pre-seed round in July 2023.
