Tint expands insurance solutions for home-sharing market

US: Tint, an embedded insurance platform, has announced its growth into the home-sharing market, as well as mobility and transportation and logistics verticals, by delivering relevant options that address market demand.

Founded in 2018, the company enables software-as-a-service [SaaS] platforms and marketplaces to unlock growth and improve profitability through embedded insurance and protection. Tint offers plug-and-play and white-labelled integrations, equipping partner brands with a mix of technology infrastructure, services and deep industry expertise.

To date, Tint has raised $30 million in investment from the likes of Y Combinator, QED, Deciens, Nyca, Plug and Play, WIN, Soma Capital and Pioneer Fund, and has forged partnerships with Guesty, BabyQuip and more.

Matheus Riolfi, co-founder and CEO of Tint, said: “2024 has been a transformative year for Tint. Our success is a testament to the increasing demand for embedded insurance solutions that seamlessly integrate with modern digital platforms.

“Our cutting-edge approach has allowed us to rethink the customer journey, reduce friction, and create higher conversion rates,” he added.

So far this year, Tint has bolstered its team with strategic hires that bring a depth of industry expertise in two strategic markets.

Christopher Aragon has joined as Tint’s head of mobility, bringing extensive experience in the growing mobility sector.

Meanwhile, Jared Palmer is taking on the role of Tint’s head of transportation and logistics, where he will play a pivotal role in enhancing the company’s insurance solutions in an evolving market.

With a bolstered leadership team, Tint has launched new offerings in three key markets:

• Tint has entered the home-sharing market by developing new solutions and exploring product expansion to serve the short-term rental and hospitality industries. 
• In the mobility sector, Tint collaborated with car-sharing firm Turo to develop an off-trip insurance program tailored for Turo hosts. The specialised commercial coverage is designed to protect hosts’ vehicles when they are actively listed on Turo. 
• The company has also expanded its presence in the transportation and logistics sector through a partnership with broker EPIC, leading to the launch of EPIC Connect™ powered by Tint.

Tint’s insurance infrastructure capabilities power SaaS platforms and marketplaces to offer relevant coverage to its users. Its infrastructure allows platforms to increase adoption, optimise their insurance programs, and monetise an insurance offer.

To help transform how consumers interact with native embedded insurance programs, Tint has hired Kelli Broin as its new head of product and Eric Schmiedel as head of engineering. The pair will be tasked with delivering world-class insurance infrastructure and seamless customer experiences.

Looking ahead, Tint will continue to deliver embedded insurance programs in the home-sharing, mobility, and transportation and logistics markets.

Riolfi continued: “We’re reimagining how insurance is delivered in the digital age. As we continue to innovate and expand our offerings, we are excited to take leaps towards our mission of making insurance an intuitive, value-adding feature of the brands and platforms people use every day.”
