"Feathery's founder and team are dynamic individuals who demonstrate tenacity and coach ability. There are many start-ups leveraging AI to support insurance clients streamline workflows. Very few have successfully won clients, let alone having had tangible client success in multiple product lines. Aside from having a strong value proposition and ability to execute, I attribute Feathery's success down to Feathery's leadership team." - Dave Bennett, Strategy Consultant and Advisor
