Overview
Mandl is a San Francisco–based group of three AI-native units that modernize the commercial insurance engine across underwriting, claims, and operations. Nirvana underwrites commercial risk and has run-rate premiums over $300 million with strong loss ratios. Vega is an AI-powered claims administrator that resolves claims four times faster than the industry average, and Cooper is an AI operations platform for agencies, brokers, MGAs, and carriers that automates routine tasks from hours to about ten minutes. All three units operate under one umbrella to speed decision-making, improve data flow, and remove friction so insurance supports business growth.
