The Problem
ADASTEC, an innovator in the SAE Level-4 automated driving software platform, flowride.ai for large-scale commercial vehicles, specializing in electric buses, faced strict contractual requirements – including insurance – for its fleet in 2022. Their previous insurance vendor lacked expertise in deep, innovative technologies, resulting in delays and inadequate coverage. Specifically, their legacy insurance vendor did not have experience automated buses it develops.
The Solution
Koop stepped in to provide tailored solutions, including Errors & Omissions (E&O), Cyber, and an Autonomous Vehicle Policy for its buses. Koop addressed ADASTEC’s unique needs and aligned with Koop’s expertise in scaling autonomous vehicle operations.
Looking Forward
With Koop’s support, ADASTEC is growing their automated bus fleet confidently, knowing their contractual compliance with insurance and other requirements can scale alongside their innovations. The company recently deployed one of its buses in Michigan’s Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
Why Koop
Koop provides seamless compliance and insurance solutions tailored to innovative companies, ensuring they have the coverage needed to scale securely. Thanks in part to its extensive partner network, Koop can effectively underwrite pioneering technologies.
