Usage-based and on-demand insurance models are advancing, enabled by telematics and location data, though regulatory fragmentation and consumer skepticism remain friction points.
Analysis:
Usage-based insurance is proven in concept (Progressive Snapshot, Metromile) but scaling has been challenging. Next-generation UBI startups with better data, smoother UX, and regulatory strategy could succeed, but this is a competitive space with execution risk.
