WHO WE ARE :

Cogitate is where insurance meets serious engineering. We build the digital platforms that modern Property & Casualty insurers, MGAs, and program administrators run their business on. Over a decade later, we are one of the fastest-growing InsurTechs in the United States, powering carriers, MGAs, and program administrators through our award-winning DigitalEdge platform. "Insurance Technology by Insurance People" isn't a tagline it's how every decision gets made.

WHAT WE DO :

We build DigitalEdge a cloud-native, AI-first platform that transforms how P&C insurers handle policies, billing, and claims. Built on microservices and a modern stack, it replaces legacy systems with software that's fast, configurable, and built to scale. AI is at the centre of where we're headed through CAIRA, our Agentic AI Platform, which brings intelligent automation to the industry's most complex, time-consuming work.
