Porch Group

Porch Group is a homeownership-focused company founded in 2012 that combines homeowners insurance with vertical software platforms and consumer services spanning moving, maintaining and protecting homes. Its software is used by home inspectors, title companies and mortgage providers across the United States; the home inspection platform alone is used in more than 40% of home inspections in the country. Consumer offerings include home warranties, moving support and home setup assistance.

Underpinning the business is an advanced risk assessment platform that integrates insights from the company's software systems and acquisitions - including V12 - to assess risk, improve underwriting and enhance protection for homeowners. Insurance was selected as a core service on the grounds that it fosters long-term customer relationships in a growing industry, and the company states a data-driven approach across risk assessment, consumer reach and user experience.

Technical work spans data-driven risk assessment, underwriting analytics, vertical software platforms and data integration from software systems and acquisitions. The company describes its founding mission as building a business designed to endure, solve problems and leave a lasting impact, with growth pursued through strategic acquisitions and the integration of vertical software. Porch Group operates in the United States.
