## Overview
Risklytics is a commercial insurance brokerage serving companies that run AI models and agents in production, and businesses that operate robots and machinery in the field. The brokerage targets hard-to-place and excess and surplus (E&S) risk that falls outside conventional commercial forms, arguing that most standard policies were written before AI agents handling customer work, or robots operating on customer sites, existed as a routine business risk.
Founded in 2026 by Samuel Gold and Alexander Risio, both on leave from Harvard, Risklytics is based in San Francisco and participated in Y Combinator's Summer 2026 (S26) batch as a roughly two-person team. The company organizes its coverage around two client verticals: AI software and agent companies, and robotics and field-machinery operators. It positions itself as a broker rather than a carrier, placing client risk with carriers it identifies as having appetite for the exposure, across both admitted and E&S markets, and reviewing policy forms before binding.
Risklytics operates an online application at app.risklytics.ai where prospective clients select from eight coverage lines a la carte, packaged into three starter bundles that can be customized before broker review. As of the research date, the company stated it was still obtaining insurance producer licensure and had not yet begun placing coverage.
