Written By Rick Watson

Cover Genius is the insurtech for embedded protection. Their vision is to protect all the customers of the world’s largest digital companies.

Clyde makes brands easy to love with reimagined experiences for product protection, registration, and issue resolution.

This space has gotten more interesting as well, particularly as retail margins shrink.  Cover Genius is used by Amazon, eBay and other large companies.   Clyde is used by more mid-market brands and so features plugins to Adobe, Salesforce, Shopify and Salesforce.
