Sean Merat

Sean is a serial entrepreneur currently focused on the Insurtech space. He co-founded Owl.co in 2017, recognizing the potential to save insurance companies millions of dollars by changing how they approach fraud detection. By leveraging AI and machine learning to manage fraud claims, Owl.co is able to perform greater due diligence at scale, while removing human bias from the process. Passionate about data privacy and zero knowledge proof, Sean believes tech should be leveraged by consumers and not at their expense. Prior to founding Owl.co, Sean founded, sold and took public a series of tech ventures, which have shaped his progressive views on startup growth, leadership and culture. He serves as an advisor for Hold Accelerator, an AI Fintech organization that connects Fintech startups with corporate clients and investors and is a proud husband and father.
