history.
In 2011, insured.io (then known as TundraLogic) was founded by insurance industry veterans on the principle that effective, meaningful engagement via technology is the basis of any successful Carrier, MGA or Broker. We’ve engineered our cloud-based, SaaS products to connect your consumers, producers and employees with a platform on which to meaningfully interact with your company using any device they choose.
mission.
insured.io always strives to provide best-in-class service and support for our products and partners. While other companies are sleeping, we are monitoring server performance, optimizing data, and constantly making sure that every client's experience is the best. We measure our deployments in days, not months. We base our pricing, success and reputation on your ROI (Return on Investment). We never stop working to make sure our platforms are making you money.
culture.
We are always excited about everything we do. Whether it be designing a new user experience, checking KPI's, creating an MVP out of thin air, or fixing old mopeds, insured.io is all-in. We may be over-caffeinated, over-talkative, and over-excitable, but it's because we really love what we do and we want you to feel the same way.
Our Team
Michael Kassing
Founder / Chief Visionary OfficerMichael Kassing
Founder / Chief Visionary Officer
Have you ever met a human Golden Retriever? Want to? Michael is currently the CVO (Chief Visionary Officer) at insured.io. The CVO’s job role at insured.io is to be an out of the box thinker, see the connection, see the path. Michael’s passion flows from the simple premise that in the B2B space there is a sweet spot that can be had where everyone wins, everyone crushes ninja robot warriors from Mars. On any given day Michael will be buried in the books, helping architect a system, reviewing contracts, cutting code, cleaning the bathroom, or randomly yelling at the sky. Michael also loves geology and will lick random rocks he finds (so will his children #proudDad).
Steve Johnson
Founder / Head of ProductSteve Johnson
Founder / Head Of Product
Steve has been in the insurance industry for nearly 15 years, and has worked in Insuretech for over 10. Steve is one of the founders of insured.io, and as Head of Product, he is ultimately responsible for how everything that comes out of this company works, looks, feels, smells, and tastes. You won’t find him just concocting user stories or monitoring performance metrics - when he’s not doing a deep dive with the development team, he’s prototyping, designing interfaces, drinking way too much Diet Coke, and getting his hands dirty writing code. Years of experience in insurance, interface design, and back end development has left him well-suited to continue to expand our SaaS platform and grow our product offerings.

Erika Thornton
Quality AssuranceErika Thornton
Quality Assurance
In between Snapchatting photos of latte art and her distracting office collection of 20+ succulents, this self proclaimed "Struggling Plant Mom" uses her keen eyes and ears to ensure our team continues to produce only our best products - free of all llamas and Star Wars references. Erika is the youngest member of the insured.io team and definitely not preparing for the fall of our generation X team members to gain total control and place ninja robot warriors from Mars in every Starbucks in the modern world (all with the help of social media intellect, a vast understanding of musical genres, un-medicated ADD, pretty much any other millennial stereotype, and our personal Russian spy).
