Building a world free from all forms of exploitation and discrimination where everyone has the opportunity to realise their potential.

ACKO is the protection destination for over 200 million tech-savvy families across India, protecting their families, assets and money. Launched in 2016, we set out to solve real-world problems with technology, starting with insurance and in the process, we’ve meaningfully redefined the category. As a customer-first company, we believe insurance should be simple, fair and hassle-free. That’s why we pioneered the D2C model in India, empowering customers with zero commission, zero paperwork, instant renewals, same-day claim settlements and app-based claim updates. From auto and health insurance to embedded, bite-sized coverages, ACKO is built for the digital age, where protection is just a click away. Backed by top investors like General Atlantic, Multiples Private Equity, Accel, and Amazon, we’ve raised over $450 million, grown at 88% CAGR in four years, served 75+ million customers, and issued ~900 million policies. And we’re just getting started! Check us out at www.acko.com
