About Roamly

Roamly Insurance Group (Roamly), a wholly owned subsidiary of Outdoorsy Holdings, Inc., is the first full-stack insurtech with an embedded offering that powers insurance. Our offerings include modern-day RV insurance to make owners' vehicles 'rent ready,' which we dogfood in our Outdoorsy marketplace, and the RAC platform - a suite of unique digital insurance products that eliminate the commercial use exclusion clause prohibiting online renting activity. RAC enables marketplaces to embed and offer a broad array of insurance products – such as rental insurance, trip and travel insurance, and pet insurance, among others – directly to customers through simple booking flows. RAC is a state-of-the-art, never-before-seen platform in the insurance industry that combines predictive analytics AI/ML, cutting-edge actuarial science, proprietary underwriting processes, and proprietary state filing methodologies implemented on an API-first platform. This platform combines location services, informatics, and real-time data. Our solution revolutionizes claims handling and subrogation while mitigating risk in ways industry insiders describe as a revelation. Our insurtech also markets personal and professional insurance products to peer-to-peer and marketplace businesses to complete our end-to-end offering.

At Roamly, we move fast, and our business is growing quickly because of it. Our net written premiums have increased 130% year-on-year, and our growth continues to accelerate. Is half a trillion dollars in net written premiums a big number for you? We believe we’ll get there in just a short number of years at our current rate!

At Outdoorsy Holdings, we are driven by a profound commitment to reconnect people with nature and foster deeper interpersonal connections. 2023 marked a milestone for us as we achieved profitability, and we are currently experiencing a robust multi-year growth rate of 175%. In 2024, we anticipate surpassing $3 billion in transactions. Our success story includes celebrating over 1 million trips and more than 7 million booked travel days as of June 2023. Join us as we disrupt the outdoor travel industry.
