Corvus Insurance is a broker-friendly InsurTech MGA offering Smart Commercial Insurance™ policies and innovative technology that utilizes new forms of data to predict and prevent claims, creating value for the policyholder, broker, and underwriter.

This allows Corvus to “score” the temperature stability for each individual manufacturer/shipper of goods.

These recommendations help brokers reduce the total cost of risk for their clients. in addition, Corvus’ online platform, the CrowBar™, provides brokers and policyholders on-demand access to policy information, claims reporting, loss prevention recommendations, and business intelligence.
