Startup of the Week - Wrisk
by Startacus Admin
Wrisk - The InsurTech startup that's on a mission to make macroinsurance our insurance of choice.
Let’s face it - sorting out insurance can be a bit of a nightmare - albeit a necessary one! Whether it’s organising the annual travel policy or trying to get the best renewal quotes for your house contents, it can be a real chore. It tends to be very much price led and most of us have very little knowledge on whether or not we are actually getting a good deal for our money or whether we really have the cover that we need.Thankfully, our latest startup of the week is on a mission to disrupt the insurance market and thereby make all our lives easier.
Wrisk is an innovative startup which aims to make “insurance so simple that it’s almost unrecognisable”.
Like the sound of that? Us too!
The premise of Wrisk is that all your insurance can be managed via one single app. No need for countless separate policies with a host of insurance providers. Wrisk will cover all your insurance requirements - in one “macroinsurance” plan.
It aims to be wholly flexible and thereby properly suit your lifestyle. You will have control to add or remove things whenever you require.
What we also really like about Wrisk is the fact that they are helping to make the entire insurance sector a lot more transparent. Users will have a Wrisk score which in turn will help them understand why their premiums are what they are - in essence what factors contribute to how they are assessed for risk. That of course will in turn help users identify what they can do to reduce that risk.
The Wrisk folk have even simplified the actual process of getting a quote - with just 6 basic questions needing answered before quotes are provided.
Interested in finding out more? You can sign up now for early access to the app.
To start with Wrisk are providing contents insurance, however they will of course in time be offering all types of insurance - from motor to home to travel.
Just think - how much more convenient that will be - to be able to control all your insurance needs via one mobile app.
Wrisk - we’re loving your work!
