The move is part of RYZE’s ongoing M&A strategy focused on partnering with middle-market firms to enhance its suite of technology-enabled claims solutions.
The acquisition expands RYZE’s service offerings to include Acorn’s proprietary audit process, Expert Technical Analysis (ETA), and Third-Party Administration (TPA) services. RYZE plans to leverage Acorn’s capabilities to further strengthen its water mitigation review processes.
Founded and led by industry veterans Rob Brown and Kirk Belz, Acorn Claims has built a reputation for technical rigor and strong industry relationships. The firm’s integration into RYZE is expected to enhance claims accuracy and efficiency, supported by advanced tools such as RYZEQAI.
“Acorn Claims aligns perfectly with RYZE’s mission to partner with middle-market adjusting firms that share our culture and growth objectives,” said Tony Grippa, Executive Chairman of RYZE. “Under the leadership of co-owners Rob Brown and Kirk Belz, Acorn Claims has built a stellar reputation as a premier claims services provider.”
The acquisition marks another step forward in RYZE’s efforts to scale its operations while maintaining the agility and precision that define its claims services.
