Many of the most significant companies of the last two decades share a common DNA: they applied technology to essential services that had stubbornly remained offline. From banking to transportation, the infusion of software fundamentally reshaped our daily lives. When we first met Peter Colis and Lingke Wang at the seed stage in 2017, they identified an industry overdue for this transformation: life insurance. Despite 84% of Americans recognizing the need for coverage, the effort involved—blood draws, reams of paperwork, and month-long wait times—left millions unserved. Peter and Lingke’s vision was to make life insurance instant and frictionless, breathing technology into a massive, stagnant category. Challenging the norms of an industry this established is a daunting task. It requires a rare level of grit. Over the last nine years, the @get_Ethos team has stayed true to that original insight, providing financial security to hundreds of thousands of families who previously lacked it. Congratulations to Peter, Lingke, and the entire Ethos team on today’s IPO. It has been a privilege to partner with you from the beginning. Your journey is a powerful reminder of what happens when you combine a clear vision with relentless execution. $LIFE
