Jumpstart redirects to Neptune

Jumpstart Insurance’s standalone website now redirects to Neptune, the insurance platform that acquired the earthquake insurance startup in 2021. Its older domain, jumpstartrecovery.com, is also no longer resolving.

The website change points to further integration under Neptune, although no separate announcement confirming a formal brand retirement was identified.

Founded in 2015 and based in Oakland, Jumpstart Insurance developed parametric earthquake insurance that pays a fixed amount based on shaking intensity rather than assessed property damage. At the time of the acquisition, it offered payouts of up to $10,000 for individuals and $20,000 for small businesses in California, Oregon and Washington.

The startup raised approximately $2.75 million across angel funding, debt, seed funding and equity crowdfunding. Backers included Insurtech Gateway and Berkeley Angel Network.

Neptune’s 2026 disclosures continue to describe parametric earthquake insurance as part of its offering. The company also said Jumpstart’s expertise and technology helped lay the foundation for an indemnity earthquake product, which entered beta testing in California in December 2025.
