The business model is enterprise B2B subscription-style, with custom quote-based annual contracts sold directly to insurance carriers. Named customers include TATA AIA Life Insurance, Manipal Cigna Health Insurance, Aditya Birla Sun Life Insurance, Kotak Life Insurance, HDFC ERGO, and Bajaj Allianz Life Insurance, several with multi-decade operating relationships. The company is founder-led, privately held, and bootstrapped with no external institutional funding disclosed.
