Why you need coverage

When your AI causes harm, your company pays.

Nova is liability insurance for companies building with AI — built to cover the gap your other policies leave open.

You're liable

If your AI injures someone, leaks data, or gets it wrong, the claim lands on you — not your model vendor.

You're likely not covered

General liability, E&O, and cyber were written before generative AI. The new risk falls in the gap between them.

The downside is existential

One uncovered AI claim can cost more than a year of runway — and most teams don't know they're exposed.

Modular coverage

Five coverages.
Pick what your AI needs.

Every Nova policy is modular. Add the protection that maps to your real exposure — and leave the rest. Tap a coverage to build yours.

01

Bodily Injury

When an AI-driven product, robot, or autonomous system causes physical harm to a person, we cover the claim.

02

Property Damage

Physical damage to property caused by your AI's decisions, hardware, or automation — handled, down to the repair bill.

03

Data Disclosure

Unauthorized exposure, leak, or disclosure of the personal and proprietary data your systems touch.

04

Copyright Risk

Copyright and IP infringement claims arising from your AI's training data or its generated output.

05

AI Error

When your AI misrepresents the facts or hallucinates, and that false output costs a client, we pay the claim.

Why purpose-built

Generic policies weren't built for this.

The policies you already carry — general liability, errors & omissions, cyber — were written before generative AI. Each responds to a slice of the risk and stops short of the rest.

When AI output leads to… General Liability Errors & Omissions Cyber Nova
Third-party financial loss NoPays for injury or property damage, not pure economic loss. PartialMay respond, unless a generative-AI exclusion applies. NoTriggers on a security breach, not a faulty answer. YesCore to AI Error coverage.
Third-party bodily injury PartialOften responds, though newer forms add AI carve-outs. NoProfessional-liability forms exclude bodily injury. NoOutside what a cyber form covers. YesCovered under Bodily Injury.
Third-party property damage PartialCan respond, subject to the same AI carve-outs. NoExcluded by professional-liability forms. NoNot a covered cyber peril. YesCovered under Property Damage.
Exposure of personal or third-party data NoData exposure sits outside a liability form. NoRarely contemplated in a standard E&O form. PartialMay respond if it reads as a privacy breach. YesCovered under Data Disclosure.
Copyright or IP infringement PartialOnly the narrow advertising-injury wording. NoIP infringement is a common exclusion. PartialSometimes within a media-liability sub-limit. YesCovered under Copyright Risk.

Why Nova
