“Now more than ever, financial institutions and insurers need to remove the barriers of entry for consumers to do business with them. Fenris is serving agencies, brokerages, carriers, and financial services providers of auto, home, life and small business commercial insurance with our APIs,” said Jennifer Linton, CEO, Fenris. “Fenris has demonstrated its impact on increasing conversion rates and reducing manual entry for what has historically been a large frustration point driving up costs of acquisition.  We thank each of our investors, whose support is helping us help our clients reinvent the customer journey from lead to quote to renewal.”

“Fenris has all of the key attributes we look for in terms of market, team, technology, and momentum,” said John Cambrier, Managing Partner, IDEA Fund Partners.  “While existing players like LexisNexis, Verisk, and Experian do a strong business in insurance data, Fenris is more flexible, easier to implement, and has proprietary scoring algorithms to serve use cases more broadly than the incumbents.  We’re excited to be partnering with such an experienced and dynamic team with a product line that is delivering clear value to hungry customers.”
