Sixfold, an InsurTech company focused on artificial intelligence-driven underwriting, has announced the appointment of Tony Rosa as its new chief data & analytics officer, a move designed to accelerate the scaling of its AI underwriting brain and deepen portfolio-level intelligence for insurers.
Founded to modernise insurance underwriting through advanced data science and machine learning, Sixfold provides insurers with AI-powered tools that help underwriters make faster, more informed decisions.
Its platform analyses vast volumes of structured and unstructured data to surface insights across risk selection, pricing and portfolio optimisation, supporting carriers as they seek to grow profitably while managing exposure in increasingly complex risk environments.
In his new role, Rosa will focus on building portfolio-level intelligence that allows underwriters to move beyond analysing individual submissions. His remit includes enabling teams to spot emerging risks, optimise the composition of their books and make proactive, strategic decisions about capacity deployment rather than reacting on a submission-by-submission basis.
Rosa brings more than 15 years of experience in insurance data, analytics and underwriting strategy. Prior to joining Sixfold, he served as chief data & analytics officer at Ignyte Insurance, where he developed enterprise analytics frameworks to support portfolio management and underwriting decisions. Earlier in his career, he held senior analytics roles at NSM Insurance Group, a global specialty insurance programme administrator managing over $2bn in premiums across more than 30 niche markets, where he scaled business intelligence, data warehousing and underwriting analytics capabilities.
Beyond his core responsibilities, Rosa will also lead Sixfold’s approach to responsible AI governance. This includes helping to define best practices as insurers prepare for emerging AI regulation such as the Colorado AI Act and the EU AI Act, areas of increasing importance for carriers adopting advanced analytics and automation.
The appointment follows Sixfold’s recent $30m Series B funding round, led by Brewer Lane with participation from Guidewire. The investment is supporting the company’s expansion as it scales its AI underwriting platform from more than 40 lines of business today to broader coverage across global markets, reflecting continued demand for sophisticated underwriting technology.
Sixfold chief data and analytics officer Tony Rosa said, “As one of Sixfold’s first customers, I saw how deeply the team embedded with our underwriters to understand what drives effective decision-making. Sixfold started by understanding underwriting, then built AI to support it. Now I’m here to help scale that, building a platform that doesn’t just process submissions faster, but helps carriers grow profitably.”
Sixfold co-founder and CTO Brian Moseley said, “Years of building AI that underwriters actually use at some of the world’s leading insurers have strengthened our vision for what’s the future of underwriting. Tony will help us accelerate from submission-level insights to portfolio-level intelligence – driving our industry-leading appetite awareness for individual risks to understanding how they fit into each insurer’s broader strategy and portfolio goals.”
