Who is Cover Whale?

Cover Whale employs data to make our roads safer - and we’re looking for exceptional humans to help us make our vision a reality. Our ambition is to combine our passion for improving safety with leading expertise in data science, along with industry leading practices in AI/ML/FL to not only identify good drivers, but to actually make our drivers and the roads they travel safer. We realize that the commercial trucking industry is the backbone of the American supply chain; here at Cover Whale, our goal is to drive progress in the trucking industry by providing innovative, dynamic insurance solutions that open new horizons of possibilities to drivers, fleet owners, and everyone in between.

Founded in 2019, Cover Whale recently closed a $15.5M seed funding round (the largest InsurTech seed round raised in North America to date) and is scaling rapidly. Cover Whale was built on a foundation of technology, data, and machine learning analytics to transform the commercial auto segment and bring the excitement of consumer insurance tools like Lemonade and Hippo to the commercial auto space. The efficiency driven by Cover Whale's technology platform reduces the need for the traditional resource-consuming underwriting process, allowing it to offer instantaneous quotes from multiple carrier partners.
