“The foundershield software platform is really easy to use. I am a CEO of a Seed stage startup, with no finance experience. Whilst completing insurance applications is quite boring, Foundershield have made it as easy as possible. Even better than the platform is the service. They keep on top of my renewals (even though I can be bad at responding), and they get everything sorted quickly. Any time I need them for any queries on my policies, they are quick to respond. I love foundershield and see no reason to ever change”

“So I reached out to Founder's Shield right before Christmas and inquired about business insurance. I was on a tight deadline. Let's just say after 40 days and 40 nights of going back and forth and missing my deadline I was not insured. They combed through my website and asked ridiculous questions such as why are we the first insurance company just to name one. I don't like to throw racism out there but I am sure that was the case based off the line of questioning. I'm not saying that they may not work for some but I will tell Black people to steer clear. To be fair it could have been the partnering firms they work with that were racist which is CFC and Everest but it was one of the three. I need to warn my people because after speaking with another broker for 30 minutes I was insured.”

“The rates seem good (lower than what our CFO and Acct typically see), and the tech seems good as well, but FounderShield has really earned my trust through their customer success team. They are very responsive, empowered to solve sticky problems, and work quickly. I've also noticed that the same individuals tend to respond, which tells me, as a business owner, that they're good at taking care of good people.”

“I came across FounderShield from an article published elsewhere. When I first spoke to Jonathan I told him that I was not looking for automated quotes from multiple parties consolidated by a broker, but the assistance of a real human who understands what we do and what would meet our needs and would be best for us. The personal connection Jonathan established with me, and the quick answers to all of my questions made me comfortable to choose FS over one more company I shortlisted from many. Jonathan was always transparent, honest and happy to answer and clarify all concerns I had, and that was what made the difference for me.”

“The best follow-up I have ever seen with any insurance group! Also, knowledgeable reps Vanessa and Noelle went out of their way to answer every question I had. They also got me a policy which was better and less money than my former company. 12 out of 10!!!!”

“As a small, high-tech start-up, Founder Shield has been very helpful... from the early days helping us find the basic coverage, to today with more complex needs. And they are responsive when we need help with policy details or new coverage. We even find nuggets of value in their newsletters. All around we have been happy with our choice to partner with Founder Shield.”

“I've used Founder Shield across 3 different startups over the past 8 years. It is a fantastic partner in understanding, defining, and acquiring all insurance needs for you company. They regularly catch issues with other providers on misclassifications or incorrect risk profiling, resulting in significant savings for our company. I cannot recommend them enough.”

“After allowing me to deposit a total of $33,340, they had the audacity to tell me that my deposits were illegal and that I needed to pay more to make it legit, total scam, they refused to let me have my money back, I am fortunate to have seen a post about spacetelcapital; cPm and how they were able to do justice to these people. They aided me in quickly recouping my investment.”

“I am not one to typically write a review but I felt compelled to with Founder Shield. As a person who has worked in HR for 10+ years and owned several businesses, I have worked with dozens of insurance companies but none have come close to impressing me as much as Founder Shield. I had come to the point to expect that working with insurance companies always had to be a nightmare. Founder Shield changed that. This company has such a seamless process from the start. I love the ease of the online portal. I love the courteous, prompt response of the employees from Advisors to Accounting. Signing documents is a breeze too! If I owned an insurance company, I would hire everyone I have worked with here, and that is a true rarity in today’s age where customer service is a lost and frankly ‘dead’ art. I would highly recommend this company to family, friends and business associates. 5 stars!”
