About

Atlian is an AI-based software platform targeting the UK construction insurance market by identifying construction projects at the planning stage and connecting them with brokers earlier in the process. The company aims to modernize construction insurance distribution, which currently relies heavily on manual processes like phone calls, emails, and PDFs. Founded by serial entrepreneur James Buckley-Thorp, Atlian helps brokers reduce time spent searching for opportunities and preparing submissions. The platform addresses a £200 billion annual UK construction market that has not kept pace with modern data tools.

AI made execution free. Knowing first is the whole game now.
