The next software opportunity isn't always software.
Why we invested
MVP saw in Gyde an opportunity to bring software-like economics to a massive services market that had largely resisted digitization. Rather than consolidating independent insurance agencies for scale alone, Gyde pairs acquisitions with a proprietary AI platform designed to improve how those businesses operate and grow. With a founding team that had spent years building and scaling a technology-native insurance business from the inside, we saw the experience to understand the industry and the technology to change its economics.
Partnership
Gyde moves quickly, and our partnership has been designed to keep pace. When the team needs a specific candidate, relationship, or perspective, MVP works across our talent, portfolio, and LP networks to find the person who can help, often turning a question or request into relevant connections within days. That has made our network a resource not only for opening doors, but for helping Gyde learn faster as it evaluates new markets and opportunities.
What we do for them
- → Source senior talent and connect Gyde with specialized recruiting resources
- → Open hard-to-reach relationships across insurance and adjacent markets
- → Connect the team with operators and domain experts as it evaluates new opportunities
- → Advise on fundraising strategy, positioning, and investor outreach

What Gyde says about us.
"MVP has been an incredible partner to Gyde. Proactively, they consistently make introductions to leaders in our category, potential partners to help us grow, and support our talent and recruitment strategy. It very much feels like they're in the foxhole with us, and we're building this as a team. I can't recommend them highly enough."
