We build the future of insurance
We’re a full-stack insurtech firm
“What about people who can’t afford insurance?”
“Why do people find it hard to trust insurers?”
“Can buying insurance be less cumbersome?”
These were the questions that led to the start of Igloo (formerly Axinan), Southeast Asia’s leading full-stack insurtech firm. 300 million policies facilitated later, we’re still driven by the same mission: to make insurance accessible and affordable using data and tech. In other words, Insurance for All.

We leverage big data, real-time risk assessment, and end-to-end automated claims management to create insurance solutions for platforms and insurance companies.
