About us

A decade of service to the industry.

We're an entity resolution company for insurers and lenders — for the businesses nobody else can find — and we've been at it since 2016. What we promise the people we work with is human connection: relationship, strategy, solutions. Here's how that has looked, year by year.

01
2016 · The problem came first

We started with the underwriter's question.

Long before anyone put "AI" on a pitch deck, we were chasing the data underwriters needed and couldn't get to fast enough. The work was unglamorous — aggregation, normalization, source verification — and it was the foundation for everything that followed.

We didn't start with a model. We started with the question underwriters were actually asking — why is this risk priced the way it is? — and, underneath it, a harder one nobody was asking out loud: is this even the right company? Marvin™ was born to answer both, with the source still attached.

A decade later the questions haven't changed. The answers got a lot more reliable.

02
Regulated from day one

We built inside the constraints, not around them.

Every decision you make faces an audit, so every finding we hand you carries its source. That's where most AI-in-insurance stories break — the audit trail gets bolted on after the fact. Ours didn't, because the audit trail is the architecture.

It also means we're truth tellers — for better or worse. When a source comes back empty, we say so instead of handing you a confident guess. We don't placate. We're an open book, and we ask the same of you: the real fill rate is how the real solution gets built.

03
Why the data holds

We take wrong data personally.

That's not a value on a wall — it's why the code is right. When your data is bad, our data is bad: every client here is someone we know by name, so a wrong class code isn't a support ticket, it's a bad night. Your hard problems are our hard problems.

We're paranoid about wrong data — on purpose. We assume we're wrong until we've checked, and we'd rather tell you a source came back empty than dress up a guess as an answer.

04
How we work together

Collaboration over transaction.

We exist to collaborate on your hardest problems — together. Together is a door policy: we go deep with the clients we have rather than broad across the ones we don't, and the clients who get the most from us are the ones who treat us like a partner, not a vendor.

In practice it looks like this. Your problem becomes the roadmap — what you need next is what we build next. You have a direct line, and it's answered, weekends included. And you're in the build with us: a seat in the room, not a ticket in a queue. Best in industry, because it's built with you.

Bring us the hard one. A client's sub-two-second delivery need became a bespoke build, not a generic one. The research lab is something you reach through the product — and sometimes you help build the data that goes into it.

Marvin™ Tech · what's underneath

Right company, right location, right owner — before anything else.

Marvin™ resolves the entity first — even the businesses nobody else can find — then reasons across hard-to-reach government sites, the public web, and a decade of our own data to surface what matters. Findings are sourced, cited, or flagged, and never asserted beyond what they can back.

In practice it's four steps. Search starts from a name and an address. Resolve links the state filing, the license, the county records and the web into one business, even when they share no common key, and rules out the lookalikes. Verify settles conflicts by precedence, never by averaging, and labels what it couldn't confirm. Only then does it disclose: the enrichment, the risk signals and the open questions, each with its source.

It's a search and inference engine, not a database: live research rather than a stale ping. And it's not a wrapper — the models everyone has, plus the data only we have, some of it built with our partners. The longer we run, the sharper it gets, and the harder it is to replicate.

Today

Still here. Still learning your book.

The problem got bigger while we worked on it. There are 33 million small businesses in the US, and half of them have no credit report. 5.7 million new ones were filed in 2025. A business has no universal key, just a name spread across fifty state filing systems, so a lot of the market is being bound blind.

Ten years of commercial underwriting research means we've seen most workflows, most audit standards, most renewal rhythms. What compounds is what we know about your book — year over year.

We don't sell AI for insurance. We sell entity resolution — the right company, the right location, the right owner, confirmed before a single finding gets attached — because the best research in the world is worth nothing if it's about the wrong business. And it's all powered by Marvin™ Tech.
