FreightInsure

We went through our claims data to show where peak season risk actually sits, and what transport and logistics businesses can do about it before December.

A pallet arrives damaged. It doesn't matter which leg it happened on or whose forklift it was. Your customer remembers who they booked with.

A great few days at MegaTrans 2026 last week with the FreightInsure team, including the opportunity to join the Financing the Future panel. Alongside Renati Barel, Piers Gorman and Dan Heenan we discussed the financial realities facing the transport and logistics sector in Australia, and what businesses need to be thinking about as they plan for the future. One of my key takeaways from the discussion was that growth and risk can’t be considered in isolation. Financing growth isn’t just about access to external capital. Freight businesses also need to understand where their risks sit, what those risks actually cost them, and how they can monetise those risks using embedded insurance to finance growth. We also came back to a simple point: nothing changes if you do the same thing as last year. Transport and logistics businesses can’t expect different outcomes by continuing to operate in the same way they always have. There’s a lot changing across our industry, and plenty of opportunity alongside it. Embedded freight insurance is a huge opportunity to ensure customers and their goods are protected, while monetising what used to be one of the biggest operational headaches in freight - lost and damaged goods. Thank you to MegaTrans, my fellow panellists and everyone who joined the discussion. #MegaTrans2026 #FreightInsure #Freight #Transport #Logistics #Insurtech #EmbeddedInsurance

A few weeks ago, FreightInsure reached 100 distribution partners. This week, we won both the Judges’ Award and People’s Choice for Best Insurance Innovation at the Finder Innovation Awards. They’re very different milestones, but to me they’re strongly connected. Recognition for an idea is one thing. Convincing transport businesses to believe in it, give us a go, integrate it into their operations and put it in front of their customers is another. That has taken time - a lot of conversations, persistence and changes along the way. That trust means an enormous amount to us. It’s why winning People’s Choice feels particularly special. Thank you to every transport business that has backed what we’re building (including the dozens currently onboarding), and well done to Tiffany Sangster, Simon Schwarz, Damian Goodman, George Skentzos and the whole FreightInsure team. You put in the work for years, long before anyone outside the industry noticed. We’re not finished yet. There are some big new wins to share in the days ahead.

Insurance isn’t usually something people describe as frictionless or easy. That’s probably the point. We built FreightInsure around a pretty simple question: Why should protecting your consignment be harder than booking the freight itself? One click for consignment cover. At the point of freight booking. No friction. Finder has now named FreightInsure as Best Insurance Innovation for 2026. We also won People’s Choice in that category and were a finalist for Best B2B Innovation. The People’s Choice result is the one that means the most. You can build something technically clever. What matters is whether people actually love it. Seems they do. Well done to Jonathan Bass, Tiffany Sangster, Damian Goodman, George Skentzos, Robynne Rubin, Akkshana Manoharan, Zainab Sheikh, Reshani Fernando, Celeste Ras, Angelique Massa, Shineya Sabaranjan, Doug Laburn Lloyd Holmes Lance Warner and the entire Correlation Risk Partners crew, Christopher Toft Assetinsure Pty Ltd, Peter Gezimati Steven Kim HDI Global SE, and the whole team for getting us here. #FinderAwards #Innovation #Insurtech #PeoplesChoice
