Delos Insurance

Series A in 2024
Delos is a digital property insurance provider for homeowners in catastrophe areas. Insurance is difficult to find in high risk regions; few insurers write in these areas and the ones that do are expensive and slow. One main cause for this problem is low resolution catastrophe models, which have caused regular insurers to pull out of high risk areas. Our team has extensive experience in data science and aerospace engineering and is creating new, higher-resolution catastrophe models. We use these models to create a new home risk rating system. We will also use our models to innovate on product, actively managing our client's risk and helping them prepare for their likely perils.
