Root Inc. is an auto insurance company that uses a mobile app and smartphone sensor telematics to measure driving behavior and price policies primarily based on how safely customers drive. The company offers a "test drive" period to gather driving data, provides in-app quotes, policy management, and claims filing, and sells roadside assistance and other coverages across many U. S. states. Root targets consumer drivers (B2C) seeking usage-based insurance and emphasizes savings for safer drivers.
