Trinity Capital backs Kinetic

Trinity Capital Investment committed new growth capital to Kinetic , a workers’ comp MGU known for its safety wearable and injury-prevention tools.

Founded in 2014, Kinetic has grown to roughly 100 employees and is best known for Reflex, a belt-mounted wearable that reduces workplace injuries by detecting risky motions like unsafe postures, vehicle jumps, and slips or falls. The company has raised $19.4 million to date, excluding the newly announced debt round.

In 2021, Kinetic partnered with Nationwide to launch Kinetic Insurance, a program manager offering workers’ compensation coverage underwritten by Nationwide’s E&S/Specialty division. Kinetic uses its device to coach workers in real time, prompting safer body mechanics whenever a hazardous motion is detected.
