About

Axle is the AI-native clearinghouse for property and casualty insurance. Our infrastructure and AI agents automate complex insurance workflows for third parties including verification, monitoring, and policy updates. We've helped Fortune 500 businesses like Rocket Mortgage, Avis, and Experian speed up workflows by 95% while recovering over $220M in potential losses. Axle is backed by Gradient, Y Combinator, and the founding team of Plaid.
