We are building the working layer for insurance brokers.
Everbind was founded in 2026 to give insurance teams a complete, current understanding of every client — and the tools to turn that understanding into action.
Insurance is a business of judgment. Everything that is not judgment should get out of the way.
The client story should never have to be reconstructed — only moved forward.
Insurance agencies already have the information they need to serve their clients. The problem is that no one system has the whole story.
has the policy.
has the conversation.
have the documents.
each hold a different part of what happened and what needs to happen next.
That fragmentation creates a constant tax on the work: searching, forwarding, asking for status, rebuilding history, and discovering missing information too late.
We started Everbind because modern AI makes a different kind of system possible: one that can understand the information an agency already has, connect it back to the client and placement it belongs to, and help the team move the work forward.
We believe every insurance agency should have a live understanding of every client and placement: what changed, what is missing, what was decided, what the client or carrier is waiting for, and what should happen next.
And we believe software should do more than organize that understanding. It should help prepare the submission, compare the quotes, complete the forms, draft the communication, and surface the next action — grounded in the agency’s own evidence and with people in control of consequential decisions.
Our long-term vision is for Everbind to become the system of action for insurance agencies: the intelligent working layer between the AMS, communications, documents, clients, carriers, and the people serving them.
Less time reconstructing the past. More time advising clients and moving the work forward.
The standard behind the product.
Start with the real work
We stay close to the people doing the work, the accounts they are managing, and the systems they use every day. We solve the workflow as it exists before we ask anyone to adopt a new one.
Earn trust with evidence
Insurance turns on details. Our product, reasoning, and decisions should be easy to inspect. We show where information came from, say what we do not know, and keep people in control.
Own the outcome
Shipping is not the finish line. We care whether the renewal moved, the missing information surfaced, and the team got time back. We take responsibility across boundaries when that is what the result requires.
Build with high trust
We share context, say what is true, and give people room to exercise judgment. Small teams with clear ownership and high standards can do unusually ambitious work.
Built together before. Building for insurance now.
Martin Destagnol and Matt Gonzalez previously built Trace together, creating a headcount and spend-management platform for high-growth companies. Trace was acquired by Paylocity in 2023.
They founded Everbind in 2026 to bring the same combination of product depth, operational understanding, and enterprise execution to insurance.
Martin Destagnol
Martin is an engineering leader and repeat founder. Before Everbind, he co-founded and served as CTO of Trace, then led platform engineering at Paylocity across 21 teams and 150 people. Earlier, he founded Folders, acquired by Box, and went on to lead product and engineering for Box's end-user products.
Matt Gonzalez
A founder, go-to-market leader, and investor. Matt co-founded Trace and led revenue through its acquisition, then drove go-to-market for Paylocity’s Office of the CFO suite across 900+ sellers and consultants. Previously, he built and scaled early revenue engines across high-growth venture-backed SaaS platforms.
Seeing brokerage bottlenecks firsthand at Zenefits showed him that client relationships drive the industry, but teams spend hours buried in repetitive document work. Everbind was built to handle that manual heavy lifting, turning hours of reading, retyping, and generating documentation into minutes so teams can spend more time advising clients.
Come build the company with us.
We are a small team working on a hard, consequential problem at the intersection of AI, insurance, and enterprise software.
We are looking for people who want real ownership, care deeply about craft, and are happiest close to customers and the work. You will help shape the product, the technical foundation, and the way the company operates.
