   Branch

   Mar 2018 — Present

   Branch is on a mission to restore insurance back to its original intent - a force for communal good. Insurance was created when neighbors banded together to protect one another from financial disaster. But somewhere along the line, it lost its way: high costs, complicated policies, invasive enrollment, pain-in-the-neck claims and marketing warfare. Branch is here to put an end to the madness. Founded by a mix of insurance and technology vets, Branch is the first insurer built to optimize the process of bundling home and auto insurance. Offering simple ways to mobilize communities of members, leveraging the benefits of scale to constantly lower premiums, streamlining the claims process, and working to enrich the communities it serves, Branch is getting us back to getting each other’s back.
