Top Insurtech and Proptech Startups in Israel (2026)

Updated October 2026 · 9 picks

The top insurtech and proptech companies in Israel in 2026 are Lemonade (AI-first insurance), Earnix (pricing AI for insurers), Honeycomb (commercial property insurance), Buildots (AI construction tracking, valued near $1 billion) and Placer.ai (location analytics). Israeli founders sell mostly to US insurers and real estate firms. Nine, below.

Insurance and real estate are old, data-heavy industries, which makes them natural targets for Israeli AI and analytics companies. Israeli insurtech produced two of the sector's best-known names, Lemonade and Next Insurance, and 2026 brought more consolidation, with Munich Re buying cyber insurer At-Bay. Proptech here leans toward construction and commercial real estate rather than home sales. This list covers the independent companies to know as of October 2026.

Frequently asked questions

What is the biggest Israeli insurtech company?

Lemonade, the AI-driven insurer listed on the New York Stock Exchange, is the largest independent one. Next Insurance, founded by Israelis, was acquired by Germany's ERGO in 2025, and cyber insurer At-Bay was bought by Munich Re in 2026 for $575 million.

What is proptech?

Property technology: software and hardware for building, buying, managing and financing real estate. In Israel it covers construction site AI (Buildots, Exodigo), commercial building operations (Visitt), location data (Placer.ai) and real estate lending (Atlas Invest).

Why do Israeli insurtechs focus on the US?

Israel's domestic insurance market is small and dominated by a handful of large groups, while the US market is enormous, fragmented and open to new carriers and tools. Most Israeli insurtechs keep engineering in Tel Aviv and sell almost entirely to American customers.

Is AI changing insurance in Israel?

Yes. Israeli companies are using AI for pricing (Earnix), claims and underwriting (Lemonade), and for running entire back-office processes with AI agents (Notch). Local insurers, including Harel and Migdal, have also become active investors in Israeli startups.
