Lemonade is a new kind of pet insurance company that uses artificial intelligence and behavioral economics to replace brokers and bureaucracy with bots and machine learning.  They aim for zero paperwork and instant everything, and are obsessed with social good, delighting customers, and pets.

Claims take weeks, no customer service

Very disappointed. Lemonade has paid out two small claims, and a third is in process--and has been in process, for weeks now. The insurance is reasonably priced, but the claim experience is an ordeal. Essentially the consumer has to do the work the veterinary office would normally do in submitting the claims. Two of my three claims have gone into "Lemonade Limbo." Any attempts to contact customer service result in a response from a chatbot. Chatbot messages forwarded to "the team" will get a generic email signed by a human, but it is only a boilerplate message. "You will hear from us soon." They need to use another word, because over three weeks is not soon. There is no way to talk to a person, so the claim process is unsettling. Ease of claims and rapidity of payment are what Lemonade sells, but that has not been my experience.

Very clear, helpful and responsive

Great company to work with. Service reps are really helpful, claims are usually handled quickly and I like that my renters insurance is also bundled with my pet insurance.

Lemonade is a new kind of pet insurance company (they also have renters, homeowners, and term life insurance in the United States, and home policies in Germany, the Netherlands, and France). They use artificial intelligence and behavioral economics to replace brokers and bureaucracy with bots and machine learning, they aim for zero paperwork and instant everything. They’re also a Certified B Corporation TM, and donate unused premiums to nonprofits (including several pet-centric causes) that users select when they sign up. They’re on the CNBC Disruptor list, and ranked at the top among competitors and in the app store. They’re obsessed with social good, delighting customers, and our pets. They’re currently available in these states. Check Lemonade pet insurance out on Instagram: instagram.com/lemonade_pet
