Loop, founded in 2020, reports that will launch its flagship private-passenger auto program in Texas this week before entering expansion markets next year.

Ed Arovas, Head of Insurance, Loop, will lead the program, with support from technology managed by the company’s CTO, Ali Salhi.

“Loop has built a program that is a dream come true,” remarks Arovas. “A high-tech, direct-to-consumer insurance product that begins with the assumption that people are responsible and desire transparency and personal control with regard to pricing. Loop is the future of insurance.”

“By approaching the problem from a modern perspective, we are able to meet the rapidly shifting consumer behaviors of today,” comment Salhi. “We are excited to build a true cloud-hosted, data-driven, and technology powered insurance program together with our partners.”
