At Root, we’re doing things differently. We’ve reimagined the car insurance industry to make it smarter, more equitable, and a better experience for all. Using technology in smartphones, we’re able to measure driving behavior to give our customers the prices they deserve.

Consumer auto insurance is a competitive industry, providing world-class service and a seamless onboarding experience to consumers through integrated partnerships and digital platforms is essential to grow successfully and profitably.
