AI Insurance
1/30/2024
AI Insurance pays for lawsuits associated with your AI product, so that your team can move faster with confidence. It includes coverage for IP and Bias claims, defense costs for regulatory investigations, and expanded coverage for hallucinations and algorithmic errors.
• Policy Attached to: Errors & Omissions
• Who It's For: Companies building or integrating AI solutions in their product stack.
• Why It Matters: AI's legal landscape is complex and evolving. Standard Tech E&O policies offer no clear coverage for AI errors or lawsuits, leaving AI Companies vulnerable to claims headaches and coverage denials.
Additional Side A Limits
1/15/2024
Vouch’s D&O policy now includes enhanced Side A coverage, offering independent, higher limits to better protect the personal assets of startup founders, directors, and board members. This change moves away from a combined limit structure, allowing for better protection in the case of bankruptcy or another large claims scenario that could exhaust the policy limits.
• Policy Attached to: D&O
• Who It's For: Directors and officers looking for robust personal asset protection.
• Why It Matters: The reality for startup leaders is that personal financial risk looms large. By providing dedicated and higher limits for Side A coverage, we're reducing the anxiety of potential out-of-pocket expenses.
Roadshow Coverage
1/15/2024
Recognizing the unique risks of companies preparing to go public, we've introduced an option to add Roadshow Coverage to your D&O. This covers potential claims arising from unintentional misrepresentations or inaccuracies in roadshow presentations and materials, filling a gap that standard D&O policies may leave uncovered.
• Policy Attached to: D&O
• Who It's For: Companies on the cusp of IPO.
• Why It Matters: The path to going public is full of potential pitfalls. Our Roadshow Coverage helps address these concerns, offering peace of mind through this critical transition.
Books and Records Request Coverage
1/15/2024
With a $25,000 sublimit, this policy extension is designed to cover expenses arising from security holders' demands to inspect the company's books and records, a common yet potentially costly request.
• Policy Attached to: D&O
• Who It's For: High-growth startups or companies preparing to go public.
• Why It Matters: Responding to demands for books and records inspection can place a financial strain on companies. This coverage ensures that such compliance does not detract from your company's financial goals.
Remote Worker Tax Investigation Coverage
1/15/2024
In response to the complexities of managing a remote workforce, we've added coverage for investigation-related costs and expenses stemming from tax authority demands into remote workers.
• Policy Attached to: D&O
• Who It's For: Companies with remote workforces.
• Why It Matters: As remote work has become the norm, the risk of tax-related investigations has grown. This coverage provides a safety net, ensuring companies can confidently manage their remote workforce without fear of unexpected financial burdens.
*Enhancements apply to policies purchased or renewed after stated release date.
