Company info

  • Shepherd is an AI-native commercial insurance platform transforming how high-hazard industries get covered.
  • Our mission is to make risk frictionless for the builders and operators shaping the physical world - protecting progress from concept through construction and into decades of operation.
  • The infrastructure behind the AI boom - data centers, semiconductor fabs, renewable energy assets - has to be built and insured.
  • But traditional carriers weren't built for this speed:
  • Complex commercial construction projects routinely wait weeks for a single quote
  • Legacy carriers rely on static applications and disconnected systems
  • Brokers chase carriers through calls, emails, and resubmissions
  • We built Shepherd to solve that.
  • Our AI performs the same underwriting workflows in seconds, and integrates real-time data from construction technology partners - Procore, Autodesk, OpenSpace, DroneDeploy, and others - to see risk as it actually exists, not just as it was reported on a static form.
  • We're pursuing the most ambitious technical vision in commercial insurance: fully autonomous underwriting.
  • We're closing in on the first fully agentic submission in the industry - email in, price out, no human intervention until the last mile.
  • With Shepherd, safety, speed, and quality no longer trade off against one another - they compound.
  • We're building:
  • Faster decisions
  • Smarter, more accurate pricing
  • Better risk outcomes for insureds who invest in safer practices
  • We're not just modernizing insurance products.
  • We're building the risk infrastructure for the next generation of financial services.
  • In March 2026, Shepherd raised a $42M Series B https://www.linkedin.com/posts/justindlevine29_today-were-announcing-our-42m-series-b-activity-7442200922291630080-z1gw?rcm=ACoAAAkOMEwBRnAAXmdnQcaOJeioCu6VCqR6Gzc&utm_medium=member_desktop&utm_source=share - bringing total funding to over $60M - led by Intact Private Capital, the investment arm of one of the largest insurers in the world.
  • Intact is not only our lead investor but also a carrier partner, a testament to the confidence the incumbent industry has in what we're building.
