Peril Protect LLC, on behalf of Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance, commits to deploy LeakBot into 10,000 home insurance customers’ homes in the next 12 months.
Ondo Insurtech (LON: ONDO), a leading company in claims prevention technology for home insurers, is pleased to confirm that Peril Protect LLC has signed a contract with LeakBot USA Inc to rollout the LeakBot device and service to Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance’s homeowners insurance customers.
United Farm Family Mutual Insurance Company, doing business as Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance, is rated A (Excellent) by AM Best*. Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance is one of the largest homeowners insurance carriers in Indiana with more than $200 million in written premium.
Following recent announcements regarding LeakBot’s results with other carriers in the U.S, and the recent multi-state expansion of the solution, Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance has decided to offer LeakBot’s water damage prevention solution to eligible homeowners insurance customers. The initial agreement commits to deploying LeakBot in at least 10,000 homes over the next 12 months, with a minimum term of 24 months.
Consistent with other commercial deals, the order involves upfront payments ahead of anticipated shipments.
Craig Foster, Ondo CEO, says: “We are pleased to add Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance as our 20th insurance customer worldwide and sixth in the U.S. This is also a milestone in the U.S. as it is the first time a U.S. customer has gone straight to a programmatic rollout and skipped the pilot stage, given the already demonstrable results with other partners.”
Isaiah Blackburn, Business Operations Manager for Peril Protect says: “Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance created it’s Smart Home Protection Program to help its clients be proactive in protecting their homes and valuables. When it comes to a water event, early detection can be the difference between a minor inconvenience and a major loss. We’re proud to work with LeakBot to offer Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance homeowners insurance customers technology to take a proactive approach in protecting their homes against water losses, so they can minimize the frustration that comes with filing a claim, remediation and repairs – not to mention the disruption to daily life.”
