1B INSURANCE

Insurancefor the risksof tomorrow.

1B builds insurance solutions for emerging technologies, digital assets and autonomous systems.

Classes of exposure

  • AI
  • Digital assets
  • Robotics
  • Autonomous systems
  • Tokenized assets

Five classes of exposure. One underwriting architecture.

  1. Verify
  2. Monitor
  3. Prevent
  4. Recover
  5. Insure

Why this exists

  1. The world is changing.

    Value has moved into systems that did not exist when the wordings covering it were written.

  2. Technology is accelerating.

    A model, a fleet or a protocol can change materially between one renewal and the next.

  3. New systems create new risks.

    Failures that are instant, correlated and global, and that no loss history yet describes.

  4. Insurance was not built for this.

    The annual questionnaire, the site visit, the historical triangle: each assumes the risk holds still.

  5. 1B is building the insurance infrastructure for what comes next.

    Verified before cover is given, monitored while it runs, and priced against what is actually observed.

The risk landscape

The world isbecomingautonomous.

Custody topologyIDLE
THRESHOLD SIGNING · SIGNER INDEPENDENCE · FINALITY
Insurance was written for a world of physical, local, slow and well-documented risk. Each of these is a category the previous generation of insurance was never designed to hold, and each is already operating at institutional scale.

Exposure compounds. Cover extends in a straight line.

The market does not lack capital. It lacks a way to understand these exposures well enough to deploy it: so it withdraws, excludes, or prices defensively. That is a rational answer to a problem you cannot see. 1B builds the visibility first.

Every one of these economies will need an insurer that understands it. Very few insurers will.

Insurance isthe last step.Not the only one.

  1. Verify

    Establish the ground truth

    Every engagement begins with independent verification of the architecture that carries the risk: custody design, model governance, safety envelope, dependency graph. Nothing is bound on a declaration alone.

    • Architecture review
    • Control baseline
    • Exposure map
  2. Monitor

    Observe the risk continuously

    Once a baseline exists, it is maintained. Technical, operational and contextual signals are read continuously, so that the underwriting view reflects the business as it is today rather than as it was described at inception.

    • Signal ingestion
    • Deviation alerts
    • Portfolio telemetry
  3. Prevent

    Reduce severity before it occurs

    Where monitoring surfaces a drift, it produces an action: a hardening requirement, an escalation threshold, a change in operating envelope. Prevention is written into the relationship, not offered as an afterthought.

    • Remediation paths
    • Hardening requirements
    • Escalation triggers
  4. Recover

    Contain and restore

    When an event occurs, technical containment, forensics, legal and communications operate as one engagement. Speed of restoration is a determinant of ultimate loss, so it is treated as an underwriting variable.

    • Incident coordination
    • Forensics and recovery
    • Restoration support
  5. Insure

    Transfer what remains

    Risk transfer is the final step, not the first. What reaches the market is a verified, monitored and actively managed exposure, which is a fundamentally different object to place than an unexamined one.

    • Programme structuring
    • Capacity placement
    • Continuous re-rating

Evidence returns to the model, the portfolio learns from every event

Underwriting judgement is not being replaced. It is being given a current, verified and continuously maintained picture of the risk, which is the one thing the traditional process cannot produce.
  1. DataOn-chain state, telemetry, control attestations, dependency graphs.
  2. Risk signalsRaw input resolved into what can fail, how severely, how correlated.
  3. MonitoringThe underwritten state is maintained, not reconstructed at renewal.
  4. UnderwritingHuman judgement, working on evidence that is current.
  5. InsuranceCapital applied to an exposure that is actually understood.
Products

Eight structures.One underwritingengine.

Products are how the architecture reaches a counterparty. Each is built for a different shape of exposure, and all of them draw on the same evidence model.

Digital assets

Value that exists as a record. The insurable object is the architecture that holds it: the key material, the register, the redemption right and the regulated firm that operates them.

Autonomous machines

Machines that move in the physical world. Risk is ordered along the two factors that actually drive it: proximity to people, and how freely the machine moves.

Capacity, limits, wordings and commercial terms are not published. They are structured per counterparty and shared directly under engagement.

About 1B

An insurancecompany builtlike a technologycompany.

1B Assurance AG is an international insurance technology company focused on emerging risk, operating as a Managing General Agent. We work where the exposure is real, the demand is immediate and the traditional market has not yet found a way in: digital assets, artificial intelligence, robotics, autonomous systems and tokenized infrastructure.

Insurance expertise

Underwriting, structuring and placement handled by people who have carried risk, not only described it.

Technology

Built as infrastructure. The data model is the product as much as the wording is.

International

Structured for cross-border operators, because none of these risks respect a single jurisdiction.

Speed

New exposure classes are addressed while they are still forming, not once they are actuarially comfortable.
