Skyscraper Insurance Services

What Skyscraper Insurance Services does

Skyscraper Insurance Services Inc. is a privately held independent insurance agency headquartered in Spring Valley, New York, distributing both commercial and personal insurance products across the United States through multiple carrier partnerships and a multi-channel sales operation. The firm operates as a broker rather than a carrier, earning commissions from placement of coverage with underwriting partners including East Insurance Group, Dynasty Capital, Insurance for Supermarkets, BroadCoverage, and Nationwide. Its product portfolio spans business insurance (general liability, workers' compensation, management liability including D&O/E&O/EPL/cyber), specialty lines (property and construction, healthcare/medical malpractice, aviation, hospitality, wholesale distribution, public entities, grocery/supermarkets, cannabis), and personal lines (auto, homeowners, umbrella, life and health). A distinct Private Client Insurance Services unit addresses high-net-worth individuals with luxury-home, fine art, exotic vehicle, yacht, private jet, and personal cybersecurity coverage.

Underlying technology is minimal: the company runs a standard brokerage platform with an online quote portal at skyscraper.coverforce.com, a self-service certificate-of-insurance request workflow, and marketing content distributed through a blog and six social media channels. No proprietary technology, API, or AI capabilities are disclosed. Risk management services (audits, claims support, restoration, safety training, captive solutions) are offered as adjunct services alongside core brokerage commissions.

The business model is commission-based brokerage revenue from carrier placement, supplemented by ongoing policy servicing and administrative fees. Go-to-market combines inside sales (phone lines 877-595-5002 and 212-470-1953), self-service digital quote requests, and direct producer relationships, targeting SMBs and individual consumers as primary segments with secondary specialty-industry and HNW segments. The firm is led by co-founder and president Chaim Berkovic and co-founder, partner and CEO Joseph Fisch; no external institutional investors, parent company, or funding rounds are disclosed.

Direct peers

• Brown & Riding Insurance Services: Independent specialty wholesale brokerage focused on construction, real estate, hospitality, and other niche verticals. Highly comparable to Skyscraper's specialty-vertical brokerage model with similar carrier-appointed, multi-line placement focus.
• Burns & Wilcox: Specialty insurance brokerage and underwriting manager distributing excess & surplus lines, personal lines for HNW, and commercial specialty products. Comparable in its reliance on carrier relationships to serve niche commercial and HNW clients like Skyscraper's Private Client practice.
• Risk Placement Services (RPS): Specialty insurance brokerage distributing property, casualty, professional lines, and personal lines through a wholesale and retail hybrid model. Overlaps with Skyscraper on commercial specialty placement and multi-carrier access.

Broad incumbents

• Hub International: Large North American insurance brokerage serving commercial, personal, and HNW clients across dozens of specialty practices. Broader scale than Skyscraper but operates a comparable multi-vertical, multi-carrier agency model.
• USI Insurance Services: Major property & casualty and employee benefits brokerage with deep specialty practices in construction, real estate, healthcare, and HNW private client — direct overlap with Skyscraper's vertical mix at significantly larger scale.
• Alliant Insurance Services: National specialty brokerage with strong construction, real estate, healthcare, and public entity practices. Comparable specialty vertical strategy but with national footprint and institutional resources.
• Marsh McLennan Agency: Middle-market arm of Marsh serving commercial and personal lines clients across specialty verticals. Comparable service breadth with much larger scale and backing of a global brokerage parent.
• Acrisure: Hybrid insurance brokerage and fintech platform that aggregates independent agencies and offers specialty verticals. Comparable as a multi-vertical independent brokerage model and a potential roll-up acquirer of agencies like Skyscraper.

Emerging players

• Next Insurance: Digital-first commercial insurance carrier-agency targeting SMBs with instant online quoting for general liability, workers' comp, and professional lines. Competes for the same small commercial accounts as Skyscraper with a tech-led, lower-touch model.
• CoverWallet: Digital brokerage platform (now part of Acrisure) focused on SMB commercial insurance with online quoting and COIs. Competes for the same small commercial segment as Skyscraper's core Business Insurance practice.
