Dan Abrahamsen, CEO of Cover Whale, said: “With continued evolution in the commercial automobile market in recent years there is a significant opportunity for specialist programs. We are excited about our partnership with Everspan as we continue growing our footprint within the commercial auto space."

Wyatt Blackburn, President of Everspan Group, stated "We were initially attracted to Cover Whale's tech-enabled platform for its use of emerging A.I. and underwriting data, which offers an opportunity to profitably underwrite commercial trucking at a strong competitive advantage." 

"Our partnership with Cover Whale is in alignment with Everspan's core business strategy to expand partner programs with best-in-class MGAs,” he added. 

Cover Whale offers best-in-class underwriting and data tracking via its proprietary underwriting platform. The platform's powerful use goes beyond the underwriting stage and into the post-binding stage with automatic portfolio data tracking, allowing Cover Whale and its (re)insurance partners to have real-time monitoring, oversight, and reporting in an easy-to-use dashboard.
