We are the only platform purpose-built for multi-operating models. Our platform combines deep industry expertise with the ability to support a range of strategies and operating models.
Our Story:
We started Send because insurers had been let down for too long by rigid legacy technology. The industry was ready to work differently and so were we.
In 2017 our three founders set out with a clear vision: to transform commercial underwriting by combining advanced technology with deep industry expertise.

In 2025 we doubled in size and deepened our expertise in both the London Market and North America becoming the only underwriting platform purpose-built to support multiple operating models.
But were not finished. Insurers want orchestration not siloed systems. Thats why we continue to invest in our platform and orchestration engine helping our customers win better business faster.

Over the past two years Send has experienced significant growth expanding our team by over 50% to more than 120 people. At the start of 2024 our team was primarily based in the UK and Poland.
