Company mission
To provide a mobile-first car insurance app that meets the needs of modern drivers.
Our take
Acquiring car insurance has historically been a laborious process. Complicated and overpriced policies, based on generalised data, and supported through a labyrinth of customer service referrals, had resulted in a legacy industry that was out of step with technological advances. The result, in the U.S., is that one in eight drivers are uninsured. So the spate of new startups looking to overhaul the industry aren’t just cashing in on a market niche: they’re looking to make the roads safer.
Go Insurance is one of these companies, and their angle is to focus on creating a mobile-first solution through which users can access insurance policies within 60 seconds, and pay using Apple Pay. It’s a smart concept, which allies their offering with two important trends: mobile services, and mobile payments.
Plenty of insurance tech startups (Just Insurance, Root, Metromile, to name a few) are similarly mobile-first. However, Go has become one of the fastest-growing insurance companies by offering half-off auto insurance to essential workers across the US. By bringing its essential rates to one-third of the country, they saved Americans more than $50M during the Pandemic whilst also rapidly scaling up its operations.
