About us

We started with one tool for one brokerage.

Wilson and Tristan started small: one tool for one New York brokerage. The brokerage already ran on a leading agency management system, but it was never built for how they work, so the team filled the gaps with spreadsheets and a patchwork of other tools.

AI now lets a small team build custom software, with automation built in, faster than ever. The two of them used it to grow that one tool into a complete system that runs the whole brokerage, built around its own workflows. Now they're bringing it to brokerages like it.

Wilson Rosa Founder & CEO

Wilson Rosa

Wilson grew up in insurance, watching his mother sell policies and build a brokerage serving New York's taxi and livery drivers. His first jobs were in insurance fraud, claims and defense, where he saw how much of the work was chasing documents, payments and answers between carriers, brokers and clients.

He became a licensed property and casualty broker, co-founded a last-mile delivery fleet, and spent three years in early-stage venture capital at Aspira. He founded NIVEL to build the software brokers like his mother never had.

He holds a B.S. in Business Administration from Mount Saint Mary College and a J.D. from Fordham University School of Law.

Tristan Sokol CTO

Tristan Sokol

Tristan has spent his career turning complex, manual work into dependable systems. He worked on developer platforms at Square and Intuit, led operations at fintech startups, and automated processes at billion-dollar private firms, often for teams running on outdated software or none at all.

At NIVEL, he brings an operator's perspective to building software for commercial auto brokerages. His focus is cutting the manual work and disconnected tools that slow their teams down.

He holds a B.S. in mechanical engineering from Northwestern University.
