Root starts with a comprehensive car insurance coverage that can be customized based on individual driving habits. This covers the essential policies for physical damage liability and property coverage, plus additional policy options to protect drivers from most accidents and breakdowns. However, instead of relying solely on questionnaires or rate tables to determine rates, Root’s mobile app collects a variety of driving data points and analyzes them to determine each driver’s unique risk profile. This data includes details on how often the driver uses the car, how much time is spent on the road, and how fast the driver accelerates or brakes. Once the risk profile is developed, Root is able to assign a personalized rate based on each driver’s individual risk. This means that drivers get discounts for safer driving styles and for spending less time on the road.
Root also makes car insurance easier by utilizing a range of technology solutions. For example, Root uses telematics to monitor driver behaviors, providing instantaneous feedback and suggesting ways to improve driving safety. It also offers a virtual assistant that can handle policy changes and answer questions through voice or text messages. Finally, Root’s online portal allows drivers to make payments and access their policy documents easily and securely.
Root’s innovative approach to car insurance not only makes it easier to find the right coverage and adjust it as needed, but also provides drivers with an incentive to drive more safely to get better rates. With assistance from mobile and online tools, Root makes car insurance easier with more comprehensive coverage and more interactive service.
