Our take

Nirvana's modern insurance and risk management offerings are transforming the $750B+ commercial insurance industry, starting with transportation. Its innovative predictive models use real-time IoT data (derived from sensors already onboard most heavy trucks) and automation to deliver instant quotes, faster underwriting, and data-driven insights to help businesses protect themselves and improve customer safety.

Backed by General Catalyst & Lightspeed Ventures, the company has invested in product optimization to further its ability to accurately assess risk. While its initial focus is fleet insurance, its modern insurance and risk management offerings are uniquely built to be highly scalable should the company expand into new verticals, as its use of telematics data makes it an attractive option for companies wishing to streamline traditionally slow analog processes.
