Executive Summary

Amit Lohia is co-founder and Chief Technology Officer of InfrasAI, an insurance technology company he started with Nelson Lee and which has carried three names in its short life: iLife Technologies at launch, Infras from April 2025, and InfrasAI today. The business began as an all-in-one operating system for life insurance distribution, connecting agents and carriers, and has since repositioned around AI agents for life and annuity carriers in regulated industries, priced against measured outcomes rather than seats. Transamerica and Guardian are among its named customers. Lohia is the technical half of a two-person executive team and came to the company from two decades of software engineering leadership in retail and financial technology, at Retail Pro International, InvestCloud and Conifer Securities.

Career Highlights

  • Co-founded the company now trading as InfrasAI with Nelson Lee and serves as its Chief Technology Officer; the two of them are the only people listed on the company’s executive team page.
  • Built the platform behind a $17 million Series A announced in January 2023, led by Foundation Capital, Brewer Lane Ventures and SCOR Ventures with participation from GTMFund and OpenView Partners.
  • At that raise the company reported growing from two carrier partnerships at launch to 27, passing 11,000 agent users in just over a year, and recording 633% year-over-year revenue growth.
  • Carried the engineering side of the company through its rebrand from iLife Technologies to Infras in 2025 and then to InfrasAI, and through the pivot from insurance distribution software to AI agents with deterministic guardrails.
  • As Vice President of Software Development at Retail Pro International, oversaw a multi-currency point-of-sale system deployed across more than 4,000 stores.
  • Held Vice President of IT roles at InvestCloud, the financial services digital platform, and at Conifer Securities.

Professional Journey

Lohia built his career in enterprise software engineering before founding anything. At Retail Pro International he was Vice President of Software Development, responsible for a multi-currency point-of-sale system running in over four thousand stores — a systems problem of exactly the kind that later recurred in insurance, where the difficulty is less the interface than the number of downstream systems that must agree. He then moved into financial technology, holding Vice President of IT roles at InvestCloud and at Conifer Securities.

With Nelson Lee he founded the company that became InfrasAI, building an all-in-one operating system for life insurance distribution: quoting, application, and case management for agents, connected to the carriers behind them. The platform went live in the summer of 2021 with two carrier partnerships. By the January 2023 Series A the company said it had 27 carrier partnerships, more than 11,000 agent users and 633% year-over-year revenue growth, and it raised $17 million from Foundation Capital, Brewer Lane Ventures and SCOR Ventures, with GTMFund and OpenView Partners participating. John Kim, formerly President at New York Life, and Deanna Mulligan, formerly chief executive of Guardian Life, joined the board at the same time.

The company then changed direction and name. It rebranded from iLife Technologies to Infras in April 2025 and subsequently to InfrasAI, repositioning from distribution software to AI agents aimed at insurance carriers’ internal operations — claiming cost reduction and workflow acceleration in areas where accuracy is non-negotiable, and pricing on outcomes rather than licences. Lohia remains Chief Technology Officer through all three incarnations, one of only two executives the company lists, alongside an advisory bench drawn from the senior ranks of New York Life, Guardian, Prudential, MetLife and Transamerica.
