We’re building the first AI-native insurance brokerage platform—a system that learns from every client interaction to automate operations, power intelligent voice and chat experiences, and predict the right coverage and products for every individual or business. - Our approach combines acquisition and AI: we acquire traditional brokerages and transform them into next-generation, data-driven organizations. Through Gyde’s platform, agencies run more efficiently, serve clients more personally, and scale faster than ever before. - Join us if you’re excited to: - Redefine how millions of people access and understand their healthcare coverage, by building systems that turn unstructured data, human conversations, and fragmented processes into intelligence. - Build AI systems that improve how people access healthcare - Design production-grade voice, chat, and predictive models for a highly regulated domain - Launch technologies that augment human judgment and make complex decisions transparent and scalable - Help reinvent an entire industry from the inside out - We’re creating the future of brokerage — where every interaction, insight, and decision is powered by intelligence. - Our founding team boasts pedigrees from Oscar, Stripe, Vista Equity Partners, and Alpine.
