Insurtech Faye raises $50M led by Madrona, bringing total funding to $100M as it scales AI and international growth

Faye, a Richmond-based travel insurance app, raised $50 million led by Madrona, bringing its total funding to $100 million since 2022 to scale AI, expand internationally, and improve claims and UX; the company reported millions of customers and $100 million in annualized revenue last year. Co-founder and CEO Elad Schaffer called the raise a shift from startup to scale-up as Faye pursues growth toward a possible future IPO.
