Reflecting on the journey, Nicole Gunderson, principal at ManchesterStory, and former managing director at the Global Insurance Accelerator (GIA), remarked, “Since my initial encounter with Josh during the GIA in 2021, I’ve harbored a conviction about Rainwalk’s potential to revolutionize pet insurance adoption in the US. Josh and his adept team have not only lived up to this potential but have exceeded expectations.”

Rainwalk distinguishes itself from competitors by offering comprehensive pet insurance coverage for accidents and illnesses, boasting minimal exclusions. Moreover, Rainwalk’s policies are characterized by their ease of purchase and include attractive benefits such as complimentary virtual vet consultations, exclusive discounts on pet brands, dedicated support for pet parents, and streamlined reimbursement processes.

In a broader context, the surge in investments within the insurtech landscape is evident. Pula, a Kenyan agro-insurtech startup, recently concluded a noteworthy $20 million Series B financing round. Spearheaded by investment manager BlueOrchard through its InsuResilience strategy, this investment aims to broaden insurance accessibility for smallholder farmers in emerging markets, mitigating risks associated with climate-induced adversities such as floods and droughts.
