Tom Granit Ramu

Role

Former product lead for car insurance at lemonade (has since left); came to insurance with no prior domain background, which makes her a useful guide on the learning curve. Friend-of-team operator source for the Insurance 2.0 direction.

Affiliations

  • lemonade — car-insurance product (former).

Notes

  • Ran the telematics-first pricing product: CMT phone telematics, the Metromile device model, and the Tesla partnership; shipped the upfront self-reported telematics discount to lift conversion.
  • Sharp on the carrier operating reality: per-state filings, months-long price-change cycles, dual-model book maintenance, balanced-book economics, audit burden.
  • Skeptical of thin brokerage plays (“price-comparison sites are bullshit” without carrier infrastructure); bullish on tailored lifecycle packages and new/exotic insurance lines.
  • Willing to open her network: recently-departed Lemonade people and US insurance operators.
