RockRose Risk Raises $12.5 Million for Wildfire Insurance

RockRose Risk is targeting a growing insurance gap in areas exposed to wildfires. The insurtech startup combines proprietary property analysis, wildfire mitigation services and insurance underwriting in a single offering for homeowners. Its model aims to identify and address vulnerabilities before a fire occurs, potentially reducing expected losses, improving access to coverage and lowering premiums in markets where traditional insurers have curtailed business or raised prices because of escalating catastrophe risk.

RockRose Risk has raised $12.5 million in a Series A funding round led by Crosslink Capital and Congruent Ventures. The company plans to use the capital to expand its wildfire insurance and mitigation services for property owners in high-risk regions. The supplied report did not specify the announcement date, the company’s valuation, other participating investors or a detailed allocation of the proceeds.
