Overview

Property Guardian is a wildfire risk intelligence platform developed by Green Shield Risk Solutions, a Chicago-based MGA. The platform delivers property-level wildfire risk scoring, field assessments, and active hazard monitoring for insurance carriers, MGAs, and brokers operating in high-risk markets across North America.

The platform combines proprietary data partnerships with Technosylva, HazardHub, Precisely, and Pyregence, and integrates expertise from meteorologists, data scientists, certified wildfire mitigation specialists, and veteran wildland firefighters. Core capabilities span the full insurance lifecycle -- from initial risk selection and underwriting through active portfolio monitoring and loss control.

Founded in 2022, Green Shield Risk Solutions has raised USD 18.6M across a Seed round (November 2022) and a Series B (June 2024). The company holds a notable carrier partnership with Chubb and has expanded its product suite with the launch of Property Guardian Overwatch in May 2025 and the Guardian Elite Home homeowners program in August 2025.
