Ambler Brook, a Boston-based private investment firm focused on founder-owned businesses, announced it has made a strategic growth investment in Claimify, a national provider of tech-enabled solutions to the disability insurance industry.
Founded in 2014, Claimify and its affiliated companies deliver data-driven cost optimization and technology-enabled services to group disability insurance carriers, third-party administrators, and self-insured enterprises across the U.S. The company supports customers and their members in navigating complex governmental benefit, settlement, and overpayment facilitation processes through technology-driven solutions.
As part of the transaction, Claimify will integrate with Tower MSA Partners, another Ambler Brook portfolio company and a provider of Medicare Secondary Payer compliance technology and settlement services. The combination is expected to create a scaled, technology-forward platform serving self-insured enterprises, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators at the intersection of disability and workers’ compensation.
Claimify Co-Founder Michael Crowe will transition into a Board of Directors role as part of the deal, and both founders will become shareholders in the combined business. Crowe brings more than 30 years of leadership experience across the disability and workers’ compensation industries, having founded and scaled multiple businesses in the sector.
Ambler Brook said the partnership aligns two companies with complementary technology capabilities and a shared focus on compliance, automation, and cost efficiency. The combined platform is positioned to expand innovation in artificial intelligence and automation while deepening its value proposition to carriers and self-insured enterprises.
Ambler Brook invests in founder-owned healthcare and B2B businesses, partnering with management teams to drive long-term growth through tailored value creation initiatives. Claimify provides Social Security Disability, benefit validation, settlement facilitation, and overpayment technology solutions to major disability insurance carriers, third-party administrators, and self-insured employers. Tower MSA Partners, founded in 2011, delivers Medicare Secondary Payer compliance technology and services, including Section 111 mandatory insurer reporting, conditional payment resolution, and Medicare Set-Aside services.
