Tint.ai is a San Francisco-based technology company that builds an AI-powered embedded insurance platform, enabling SaaS platforms, marketplaces, and brands to seamlessly integrate white-label insurance solutions into their user experiences.[1][5][6] It serves industries like mobility (e.g., car-sharing like Turo), home-sharing (e.g., Neighbor), transportation & logistics (e.g., uShip, EPIC), property management, and HR platforms, solving the problem of fragmented, friction-filled insurance by embedding relevant, purpose-built coverage directly into checkout or user flows to boost adoption, conversion rates, and revenue.[1][2][4][8] Tint addresses core challenges in regulated insurance—such as policy binding, claims handling, compliance, and risk optimization—while generating tens of millions in premiums and achieving 7x growth in 2024 through partnerships and product launches.[1][4]
The company's mission is to "reimagine how insurance is delivered in the digital age" by making protection an intuitive feature of everyday platforms, not a separate product.[1][5][7] This has driven strong momentum, including doubled annualized premiums, expansions into off-trip coverage for hosts, and innovations via its Tint Studio hub.[3][4]
Tint was founded in 2018 by Matheus Riolfi (CEO) and Jérôme Selles, who met as early employees at Turo, the leading peer-to-peer car-sharing platform.[5] There, they built Turo's in-house insurance program from scratch, grappling with regulatory complexities, compliance, and operational duct-taping to manage policies and data for a business where insurance was mission-critical.[5] Frustrated by the lack of a scalable partner to simplify this, they launched Tint to become that solution—providing the tech infrastructure, expert services, and risk transfer options platforms need for embedded insurance.[5]
Early traction came from working with startups like Deel, uShip, and Neighbor over six years, protecting hundreds of thousands of customers.[1] Pivotal moments include 2024 expansions with Turo for off-trip host coverage and EPIC for logistics, fueling transformative growth.[1][4]
Tint stands out in the embedded insurance space through these key strengths:
Tint rides the embedded insurance trend, where coverage integrates natively into digital platforms amid rising demand for seamless, contextual protection in gig economies and marketplaces.[1][6] Timing is ideal as mobility, home-sharing, and logistics boom post-pandemic, with platforms seeking monetization via insurance amid regulatory easing and AI advancements.[4][9] Market forces like AI's role in risk orchestration and the shift from standalone policies to "features" favor Tint, enabling brands to capture intrinsic risks (e.g., off-trip vehicle coverage) that traditional insurers overlook.[3][5]
It influences the ecosystem by empowering startups and MGAs with infrastructure for faster launches, cleaner portfolios, and data transparency, accelerating innovation in a $100B+ global embedded insurance market.[1][3]
Tint is poised for continued dominance, focusing on 2025 product expansions in core markets plus net-new verticals, leveraging AI for even smarter orchestration and Studio-launched programs.[1][4] Trends like AI-driven personalization, regulatory tech simplification, and gig economy growth will propel it, potentially multiplying premiums further as more platforms prioritize embedded protection.[9] Its influence may evolve from niche enabler to category leader, redefining insurance as invisible infrastructure—echoing its founders' Turo origins by making protection as intuitive as booking a ride.[5][6]
