Company Description

Sola is a fast growing insurance startup developing new technology to radically transform how insurance works. By harnessing the power of data, we ensure homeowners receive payouts within days of a disaster, not the traditional weeks to months. On the path to creating a new, better insurance product, we have partnered with some of the largest reinsurers in Lloyd’s of London as well as hundreds of independent insurance agencies to develop a first of its kind data driven insurance policy. Quick, simple, and transparent payouts not only provide much needed financial support, but also play a pivotal role in restoring trust in the insurance industry.
