About Artificial

Help shape the future of specialty insurance

At Artificial, we’re building the next generation of technology for the specialty (re)insurance market. Our mission is to transform how brokers and carriers operate in complex markets by removing operational barriers and enabling smarter, faster decision-making.

We use modern technology to solve real challenges for some of the world’s leading brokers and insurers. By automating the repetitive and structuring the complex, we help our partners unlock new opportunities for innovation and growth.

You’ll be joining a collaborative team that values curiosity, ownership, and continuous learning. We work in an environment where ideas are heard, support is built-in, and outcomes matter. Everyone here has the chance to make a tangible impact on our products, our customers, and the industry.

In 2024, we raised £8M in Series A+ funding led by Augmentum Fintech, with continued support from MS&AD Ventures and FOMCAP IV. It’s an exciting time to join us as we scale our impact in London and beyond.

If you're looking to do meaningful work that’s already changing the industry for the better, we’d love to hear from you.
