Overview

Vlot is a B2B life insurance and pension advisory platform for insurers, pension funds, brokers, and banks operating in the Life & Annuity segment. The company provides financial institutions with the tools to embed life insurance guidance and automated underwriting into their customer-facing digital channels.

The platform uses an API-based SaaS architecture for white-label integration, allowing clients to offer personalized life insurance recommendations without building the underlying analytics in-house. It aggregates social security entitlements, employer pension contributions, and personal financial data to identify household income gaps related to death, disability, and retirement shortfalls.

Founded in 2017 and profitable since 2022, vlot operates with a 12-person team based in Zurich, Switzerland. Its primary commercial partnership is with Generali Switzerland, where a proof of concept launched in 2020 expanded to a nationwide rollout by 2026. The company raised CHF 1M in seed funding from investors including Plug and Play Tech Center and SixThirty Ventures.
