The story

Founded in 2015 out of FinLeap as a German 'insurance robo-advisor', CLARK built a mobile-first platform allowing users to manage and optimize all their insurance policies through AI-driven analysis. The platform acts as a digital insurance broker — assessing coverage gaps, recommending improvements, and enabling purchase across life, health, and property insurance. It has remained focused on the German market with a mandate-based brokerage model.
