Three friends, with long careers in the financial services and insurance industries, saw a way to improve the outdated insurance landscape by creating a smart software solution.
The awesome team at Ctrl is made up of specialists in the fields of technology, insurance advice as well as general team members.
We believe it’s the people and their passion for what they do,
that makes a company successful in the end.

Giving others Ctrl.
We realised early on in our development phase that the app would be ideal for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing communities, as well as people in remote areas who didn’t have regular access to a traditional broker.
We collaborated with relevant parties to make sure we created a solution that would enable anyone to do their own insurance without having to talk over the phone.
Great app for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing clients!
