Mylo vs Relm Insurance: How Do They Compare for Business Insurance?

Mylo describes itself as an independent insurance broker for small and growing businesses. It recommends coverage and compares available quotes from multiple insurers rather than issuing its own policies. ^1,2Company-reported. Mylo’s direct US small-business offering. The reviewed sources establish Mylo’s described brokerage role, not the suitability or availability of a particular policy.

Mylo says it launched within Lockton Companies in 2015 and now has Group 1001 as its backer. A May 2023 Kansas City Business Journal report said Group 1001 became the majority investor and Mylo was no longer part of Lockton; the reviewed sources did not provide a newer ownership percentage. ^2,16,17Verified. Corporate history and ownership evidence reviewed through 15 September 2026. Group 1001’s backing does not establish that a Group 1001 insurer underwrites any particular Mylo placement.

Mylo, LLC operates the website and is the named insurance agency. Its footer identifies Mylo Insurance Solutions, LLC as a trade name in California, Illinois, Michigan and North Dakota, and Mylo Solutions, LLC as a trade name in New York. ^1,3,18,19Verified. Entity and trade-name disclosures on ChooseMylo.com as of 15 September 2026. Massachusetts licensing and Florida corporate records corroborate Mylo, LLC’s identity but do not verify every listed trade name.

Mylo also supplies an embedded insurance-shopping service to other companies and insurance agencies. A buyer entering through a partner should identify whether Mylo, the partner or another licensed entity is the producer for the transaction. ^15,16Company-reported. Partner-distribution model described by Mylo and Group 1001. The sources do not establish the legal role for every partner implementation.

AI and emerging-industry buyers can approach Relm for specialty insurance, but its Bermuda insurer and US distributor perform different roles. ^21,23,22Company-reported. Brand-level introduction; company descriptions, not an independent regulatory finding.

Check who will sell and issue your policy: Relm Insurance Ltd. is Bermuda regulated; Relm US Insurance Solutions Inc. is a US producer and MGA. The Bermuda insurer says it works only through licensed brokers. ^22,23Company-reported. Company legal disclosures and US launch announcement; authority and insurer vary by placement. No regulator license verification completed.

A business buyer can answer questions about the company and industry online or work by phone with a licensed advisor. Mylo says its system recommends coverage and compares available quotes; some carrier and coverage combinations can be purchased online, but an agent finalizes the policy in most cases. ^1,3Company-reported. Current direct small-business workflow described on Mylo’s site. The sources do not promise a quote, bindable offer or completion time for every applicant.

Mylo’s Terms of Use, last updated May 27, 2026, say purchases may have additional transaction terms, require accurate and complete application answers, and may not result in an issued policy. AI-generated estimates are not quotes, binders or coverage; the carrier determines the actual offer after a complete application. ³Company-reported. Website Terms §§1.2, 6 and 9.1.1, last updated May 27, 2026; not the complete terms of an individual insurance transaction or insurer policy.

Relm’s inquiry form collects company and location details; its US offering is distributed through partners and licensed brokers, with no documented instant quote or online bind. ^31,23Company-reported. Public inquiry and broker-led access; no form submitted and no quotation received.

Mylo says its commercial brokerage works with more than 40 carrier partners and names Travelers, Liberty Mutual, The Hartford and Hiscox as examples. That panel does not establish which insurers will consider or quote a particular business. ^1,4Company-reported. Company-described commercial carrier panel. No account-specific market submission or insurer response was reviewed.

Mylo’s public pages do not provide a complete product-and-state schedule of issuing insurers. The carrier contact directory names companies used for some customers, but the legal insurer for each proposed policy must be confirmed in the quote and policy documents. ^1,4,3Not found in reviewed sources. Commercial products and carrier materials publicly reviewed on 15 September 2026. A missing public schedule does not mean a carrier relationship is unavailable.

Ask which insurer is named on your policy; Relm’s announcement names Trisura as fronting carrier for certain US digital-asset risks, not all products or California AI coverage. ³⁰Company-reported. Historical company announcement inspected on research date; current product-specific contracting insurer must be obtained from quote/declarations.

The reviewed public pages identify Mylo advisors, a service-professional fallback and a benefits HR portal, but do not establish one universal workflow for commercial policy changes, certificates, renewals or cancellations across carriers. ^1,4,14Not found in reviewed sources. Public direct-business, carrier-contact and group-benefits pages reviewed on 15 September 2026. Carrier- or policy-specific service may still be available.

Agree on certificates, endorsements, renewal timing and service contacts with your broker before binding; reviewed pages do not describe a customer portal or these turnaround times. ^31,33Not publicly disclosed. Public contact and website terms only; lack of described functions does not establish their absence.

Mylo says its guided shopping service is free and that 95% of customers do not pay Mylo a fee when purchasing. It generally earns a carrier commission; in fewer than 5% of transactions, it says it charges a fee when it handles billing and incurs higher administrative costs. The reviewed disclosure does not give the fee amount. ²Company-reported. Company-wide consumer disclosure on Mylo’s About page. It does not identify the commission or fee for a specific commercial placement.

Request premium, tax, broker fee and commission details in writing because reviewed Relm pages do not publish buyer-specific California costs. ^22,33,31Not publicly disclosed. No quote, producer agreement or remuneration schedule reviewed; no assertion of zero fees or of a particular compensation model.
