Our take
Obie serves landlords across America by providing insurance quotes for their properties. It offers an instant-quote platform that asks landlords to answer a few questions, runs an analysis based on this data and some publicly available data, and connects them with an insurance carrier that is suitable for their needs. A quote is provided, and the landlord can quickly get this underwritten.
The company is focused on a niche market of landlords with small-to-medium-size rentals. The group has been underserved by products so far, leading to poor pricing and unsuitable coverage, as well as complex and unintuitive application processes. By providing transparent and affordable insurance, the company is tackling this issue and operating in a space with few competitors.
Obie has served as an agent so far, but it's now looking at utilizing its data and clients to become its own carrier. With impressive Series B funding awarded in 2023, it is on the right track for continued success.
