Independent cost research
Independent cost estimates for cyber, E&O and D&O insurance.
No broker sponsorships, no lead resale, no referral fees. Just published assumptions, wide honest ranges and the maths behind every number.
We take no money from insurers
Our only revenue is display advertising. We never pass your details to a broker.
Every assumption is published
Retentions, forms, limits and rate curves are all written down and refreshed quarterly.
Ranges, not false precision
Two similar companies can be quoted 40 percent apart. We show that spread rather than hide it.

Why you can trust the numbers
We are a small editorial team that publishes cost research. We do not broker insurance, we do not run a quote marketplace and we never sell your data. The site is funded by display advertising only, and advertisers have no input into our estimates or our editorial. If we get something wrong, we correct it in public and note the change on the methodology page.
