Added Jun 23, 2026
New insurtechs and outside entrants struggle to build trust with carriers, brokers and customers, often misunderstanding what carrier prospects actually consider top priority.
Analysis:
This is an execution and go-to-market challenge for insurtechs themselves, not a problem another startup can solve. Industry-specific GTM knowledge is a human capital challenge.
