Overview of InsurTech Companies

-

Trying to find your way around InsurTech companies and startups? We did the digging for you and categorized them in small groups, based on what they do and how they do it.

InsurTech is the combination of the words insurance and technology. That means it involves all the technology stacks involved in insurance apps, solutions, services, and other offerings.

Insurance could possibly mean a lot of things, but today we focus on four segments of InsurTech, which are usage-driven insurance, digital insurance portals, cyber insurance, and peer-to-peer insurance (P2P).

Usage driven insurance

Comparison portals support you to find the best deal for your insurances needs.  Also scaling the service offering based on your demand in dominant in this category of InsurTech companies. Examples for this niche are:

CoverHound – Comparing insurance rates


Oscar – Health insurance with simple explanations


Metromile – Vehicle insurance offerings for low-mileage drivers


Digital insurance portals

Insurance portals are usually consolidating existing insurance service contracts into one app and view. This is value adding for the user to get more visibility into their insurance spendings and what they get for it. If the app recognizes potential savings, they will be informed about it.
