Kalepa

Kalepa builds Copilot, AI-powered software that helps insurance underwriters raise productivity and improve loss ratios. Insurers using the platform report nearly 2x underwriting productivity gains and meaningful loss ratio improvements; the software runs in more than 10 languages across global deployments. The work sits at the intersection of artificial intelligence, machine learning and decision support applied to one of the insurance industry's hardest judgements: which risks to write and on what terms.

The engineering culture is deliberately demanding. Teams are small and carry real ownership of problems that have no existing solutions and no templates to follow. Progress is measured by client revenue growth, profitability improvements and real-world impact rather than vanity metrics, and the operating discipline is one of relentless experimentation: test, measure, iterate. The company describes itself as a meritocracy in which results count for more than titles, with internal transparency and an avoidance of corporate politics. Members of the team bring experience from Facebook, Google, Amazon, Mastercard and Uber.

Kalepa is remote-first by design and invests in bringing people together in person, through regional meetups and annual offsites held in locations including Rome, Buenos Aires, Lisbon and Cartagena. The firm operates globally, with Copilot deployed in more than 10 languages.
