Denta
AI-Native Dental Insurance
About Denta
Denta is dental insurance. As a full stack carrier, Denta makes insurance 30% cheaper by selling plans directly to employers and processing claims instantly with AI. I grew up in the back office of my dad’s dental practices, spent my high school years answering patient calls, and built software for over 300 dentists during college. I'm now solving the industry's biggest problem: insurance. Everyone knows how bad health insurance is, dental insurance is worse. In the US, dental insurers collect $100B per year. Despite the $25B of that spent on administration, it still takes insurers three weeks to pay claims with paper checks that Denta can pay electronically in seconds. Denta will insure every American, sparing patients and dentists the $25B burden of dealing with legacy carriers.
