Underwriting & Risk Startup Series A

Overview

WriteWise is a pharmacy stop-loss insurance and benefits management platform for self-funded employers, third-party administrators (TPAs), and brokers. The company underwrites pharmacy benefit guarantees and provides AI-powered pricing intelligence to help employers gain financial certainty over prescription drug costs. Its products address both insurance risk transfer and the transparency gap in pharmacy benefit management.

The platform operates through two main offerings: insurance-backed pharmacy stop-loss products and the MavRx marketplace, a technology platform connecting pharmacy benefit managers, producers, consultants, MGUs, and TPAs. WriteWise underwrites per-member-per-month (PMPM) guarantees and converts PBM performance guarantees into capital-backed liabilities, differentiating it from traditional PBM arrangements. The platform includes machine learning models trained on pharmacy claims data for analytics, benchmarking, and automated repricing.

Founded in 2023 by Hari Sundram, Matt Levinson, and Nadav Mor, WriteWise has raised USD 17M across a seed round and Series A from GreatPoint Ventures, ManchesterStory, Altai Ventures, and Virtue Austin. As of 2026, the platform covers 30,000 insured Americans and integrates with more than 20 pharmacy benefit managers.
