We started Coverhero after having a number of terrible insurance experiences. Our vision is to transform and build the kind of insurance that is relevant to our generation and simple to understand.
When we started designing products, we asked ourselves a number of questions. If we could start insurance from scratch today, how would we do it? What would we create? What does the customer experience look like and what would the product look like? We challenge the status quo.
Hustlecover is a Pioneer in the market and a brand of Coverhero. We know the future of work is self-employment.
We want to live in a world of inclusion, belonging, wellbeing, Financial stability, Peace, harmony, economic success, and environmental Sustainability
The Australian insurtech launched its first product, Hustle Cover. The machine learning-powered product provides automatically tailored, real-time coverage against workplace accidents or ill health. The insurtech is also developing a mobile app to allow its customers to manage their policies — including customizing them or filing a claim — wherever they are. The product comes in two variants: Gigster for part- time gig workers and Hustle Pro for full-time gig workers
Our vision is to fearlessly empower you on a journey of self-definition and self-expression; to reshape the world of work as you know it, and to create an environment where you can do the work you love without uncertainty and fear. We envision a world where you have the freedom from being bound to a single employer. Our mission is to change the way you work, live and play.
We created Hustlecover to break the rules of society, so we’ve created a world where you can do the work you love with security and certainty. We’re the squad you’ve been looking for all your life when it comes to protecting your hustle and your future #squadgoals.
In an age of uncertainty and fear, we empower you to shift from being tied to a corporate 9-5 and give you the power to take control of your life and your dreams. If you like to play outside the lines and make your own rules, if you've ever wanted to reach for the stars and dream big, we invite you to join our movement, we'll protect you.
We are creating an integrated work life cover... for a world where work and life are integrated.
Community is at the heart of entrepreneurship. We are entrepreneurs ourselves and we understand the value of having a supportive, cohesive community that understands the rollercoaster ride of being self-employed. Our goal is to build a community to help entrepreneurs live their life on purpose.
We strive to fight against systemic injustice in the world to create the future that we want to live in by acknowledging and supporting diverse groups in the entrepreneurial community. We understand this is going to require patience and hard work to create equity and find balance for all different groups in our society.
Choosing a path of authenticity isn't always easy; it takes courage and bravery to follow our passion and live the life that we truly desire. We commit to living this brave path of authenticity and creating the world that we want to live in while enabling all entrepreneurs that choose this path to fulfill their brave journey as well.

In 2017, someone very close to Naby Maryiam, our Founder, became suddenly unwell. During that time, Naby had to lodge multiple insurance claims, all of which got rejected and, she ended up losing out on over $10,000. Mad at the insurance industry, it got her thinking about fixing the problem of why insurance is so complex and difficult.
Naby was self employed at the time, had recently lost her job, and was facing a lot of financial uncertainty. So in 2018, with her friend and colleague Hyacinth Hamon by her side, she started Coverhero. Soon after, she was given an opportunity to join a Startup Accelerator Program, which gave her the resources and support to test ideas, create some cool (and easy to understand!) products and explore the insurance market. Naby was driven by the idea of making insurance simple, and was determined to give it a shot.
When she returned, Naby met Praveen Jayasuriya at the Sydney Startup Hub, who then became Coverhero’s CTO and with his insane technology knowledge and skills, he helped make Coverhero what it is today.
The same year, we were selected to the Plug and Play insurtech accelerator and spent 6 months in Sunnyvale meeting with top tier insurers and VC’s. We presented on demo day, which was well received, and we formed incredible partnerships and built networks in preparation to launch into the US market.
Naby spoke at the Insurtech Insights New York conference on emerging insurance products and the customer experience of the future.
Team Coverhero was part of the Australian delegation to Insurtech Connect Las Vega global insurtech conference.
Naby also spoke at the Insurtech insights Hong Kong, alongside leading insurtech startups from all around the world. This was a great opportunity to meet global leaders in Fintech.
We launched our wellbeing platform ‘Balance Wheel’ at TEDx Newtown to about 300 participants. This was a great event.
During the first Covid lockdown here in Australia, we ran the ‘Walk it off challenge’ campaign to bring awareness to mental health in the entrepreneurial community. We challenged people to walk 10,000 steps a day and had 2000 people participate.
In the midst of lockdown we also launched Hustlechat the podcast and youtube channel speaking to industry leaders and founders who are building amazing companies, challenging the status quo and having deep & meaningful conversations around what matters to us and the future (insert link to podcast)
We were selected into the Plug and play insurtech Singapore Accelerator this was done virtually due to the pandemic. We met with top tier insurers in Asia, presented our tech and built relationships, exploring the opportunity to launch in the Asian market in 2022.
Using 3-D aerial imaging and cloud-based technology, Lucci is also designed to work towards the net-zero emissions Paris Agreement. Every Lucci policy will offset at least 11 tonnes of carbon emissions, making it the first home insurance API to put decarbonisation at the forefront of its policies.

This year, we won the ‘Best Emerging Insurtech’ at the prestigious Insurtech Hartford awards, competing with 100 other startups globally with a cash award of $10,000USD.
We were also nominated as a finalist for the Finnies Awards run by Fintech Australia and Naby was nominated as a finalist for Female Fintech Leader of the Year https://www.thefinnies.org.au/finnies-2021-finalists/
As you can see, we’ve worked hard to create some super-cool tech and built a community of like-minded entrepreneurs and small business owners, but most importantly of all, we’ve achieved our mission of creating an insurance product that is simple, effective and actually protects you when you need it most.
