Every name was checked against the company's own leadership page and the show's own episode page. Four of the original ten did not survive.

PLRB Dallas, Sept 15 to 16, TPA and IA side

We searched five names, ten patterns each, and the claims-industry shows themselves. No US property-TPA VP with a podcast appearance came up. TPA executives rarely sit for podcasts. So this half is picked on prospect value, and the live claim on air does the persuading. The PLRB speaker export completes it.

5Investors

Series A at $3M ARR, warm intros only, your rule.

Nine first calls: Emergence, Anthemis, Brewer Lane, IA Capital, American Family Ventures, Munich Re Ventures, Markd, HSCM Ventures, Fifth Wall.

Fifteen have already backed a company in this category: Iconiq, Kleiner, Battery, Redpoint, Eclipse, Insight and nine more. By our competitor map none of those companies does voice, property, dispatch and estimate as one system, so each overlaps Cozmo on one leg. These funds have done the diligence on the category. That makes them warm. Only the Assured backers need an overlap check before the intro.
