In efforts to enhance the new product, Slice has on-boarded every customer to its beta release individually, and organized “homeshare host meetups” to solicit real-time feedback. The New York City-based startup currently offers 18 insurance coverages and commercial liability coverage limits of $2 million.
The company also plans to release a second insurance product centered on ridesharing in the near future, it announced last fall. But no further details have been released.
