| Precursory Technologies Inc. | Supply Chain’s AI agents are booking loads, negotiating rates, and vetting carriers — and every buyer asks the same question before scaling past pilot: who pays when one gets it wrong?Today, nobody. When an agent underperforms while working exactly as designed, there’s no negligence, no liability, no covered loss. Existing policies were neverwritten for this. That’s why 40%+ of agentic AI projects are predicted to be cancelled by 2027 — and why so many pilots stay pilots.Precursory insures the performance warranty AI vendors make to their customers. We stress-test your agent against the failure modes that actually cost money, insure your obligation to pay when a warranted SLA is missed, and verify every claim against the customer’s own operational data — not self-reporting.The warranty moves off your balance sheet and into your pitch. Your customer buys nothing, files nothing — and stops hesitating.Built by operators who’ve run the systems we now insure. Starting with AI agents in US freight; built for everything autonomy does next. | $2.5M | Pre-Seed | Jul 10, 2026 |  |
