About

An AI-native MGA for catastrophe-exposed commercial property.

Skyway Underwriters was built AI-native from day one. The technology works every file; the underwriter owns every decision.

Origin

Built to underwrite the hardest property markets.

Skyway Underwriters was built to underwrite commercial property in catastrophe-exposed markets, profitably and at scale. Every file comes with building-level analysis attached.

We're an affiliate of American Coastal Insurance Corporation (Nasdaq: ACIC), the publicly traded specialty property holding company whose carrier, American Coastal Insurance Company, holds the largest book of commercial residential property in Florida. We write through rated carrier partners who share our underwriting standards.

What AI-native means here

Better tools for the people doing the work.

Modern software architecture on every submission and every claim. Building-level analysis on every risk. Underwriter and adjuster judgment on every decision.

Our underwriters and claims teams carry the best tools in the property market. AI is built into every one of them.

Better risk selection is the edge that compounds in property insurance. We built Skyway around it.
