01 / WHAT IT BUILT

What the company did

Ranger Insurance was an agent-first home insurance technology company founded by Philip Krim (ex-Casper CEO), Greg Garrison (ex-AIG) and Gabriel Flatman, and incubated in Montauk Ventures' studio program. Operating as an MGA, it offered home insurance through independent agents armed with a digital platform for underwriting support, marketing tools and cross-sell automation. It raised a $5.25 million seed round in July 2022 led by Lerer Hippeau, with Alex Rodriguez, Firstminute Capital, Slow Ventures, Global Founders Capital, Raven1 Ventures and Montauk Ventures participating.
