Guidewire buys Hyperexponential for $1.7B in cash

Insurance tech company Guidewire announced Tuesday the acquisition of the agentic underwriting insurance company Hyperexponential for $1.7 billion in cash.

The deal, expected to close sometime next year, is to help bring AI agents to work alongside humans to underwrite, analyze, and price decisions. The deal is worth around $ 2 billion in total, with $400 million in additional capital reserved if certain revenue targets are hit.

Backed by Andreessen Horowitz and Battery Ventures, Hyperexponential was founded in 2017 and has raised nearly $90 million to date, according to PitchBook. So this marks a significant return for investors. The UK-based AI startup says nearly 600 insurers across 40 different countries use its software.
