Koïos Intelligence concludes $6.5M round of funding to revolutionize insurance shopping
With this round of financing, Koïos will be able to rapidly deploy in new markets and continue the development of its virtual assistant, making it easier than ever for insurers to do business.
Olivo acts as a virtual intermediary between the insurance broker and the consumer, offering fast and personalized service, available 24/7 in the language of their choice. It allows consumers to store around for different coverage options and even make insurance purchases by asking questions to the virtual assistant.
The results speak for themselves: standardization of processes, 30% reduction in administration costs for insurance brokers and agents, and a potential 400% increase in sales conversion rates.
Caisse Desjardins des Technologies is proud to have participated in this round of financing alongside Propulia Capital, Canada Economic Development, Export Development Canada and other private investors.
Desjardins Caisse des Technologies Enterprise Team’s approach is based on coaching and aims to prepare startups to generate revenue quickly, and established technology companies to move to the next level.
