Lemonade offers users a monthly subscription for contents insurance or liability insurance (or both, packaged) starting at two euros per month. Insurance can cover the user, their home, and everything they own. The company also leverages artificial intelligence designed to craft coverage plans for customers. The peer-to-peer transactions at work when claims are paid operate on a distributed ledger via smart contracts—digital policies that pay out instantly once a claim is verified.
