Our take

Instanda has brought much-needed innovation into the insurance industry by offering its users a no-code, customisable platform upon which they can build a consumer front-end. The company's platform is updated as frequently as every few weeks to accommodate the needs of its customers' end users, promising them up-to-date offerings without the technological investment.

The insurance market is enormous, and big established players are always looking for new distribution channels. Thanks to this, Instanda has onboarded leading insurers like Hiscox, Vitality, and AXA - a critical move, as its success is dependent on attracting and retaining these big brands.

The company has steadily grown its customer base, and secured partners such as Deloitte and Microsoft. The insuretech boom has no doubt contributed to Instanda growing its footprint, and enabled it to raise new funding in 2022. The investment is cited to fuel growth across Europe, the US, Japan and the United Arab Emirates, as well as supporting the rapid improvement of the platform's capabilities and creation of a future-proofed marketplace.
