Insurtech & SaaS companies
Bring insurance operating context to product priorities, market positioning, adoption, and strategic partnerships. Make the connection between what your technology can do and why a customer would choose it.
Mandy Reed · Executive, founder & AI strategist
I help insurance, insurtech, and SaaS businesses connect AI, product strategy, and partnerships to their next stage of growth.

Perspective, built in practice
Insurance operator. Technology founder. Executive perspective.
My career began in business banking and financial services technology. Over more than 20 years, I’ve co-founded Providence Insurance, built and exited We Build Staxx, and brought that operating experience into technology leadership.
As General Manager at Traain, my work spans product strategy, partnerships, and growth. I bring that executive perspective together with AI fluency and firsthand knowledge of the insurance market.
