Imagine all you can do here.

We’re powered by people of all kinds – innovators, creators, makers, analysts — yet we have one thing in common: we care deeply and have a strong desire to help people protect their loved ones by making life insurance easier, more accessible, and better. At Ethos, we have an outsized impact and true ownership over our successes. We’re part of a team making real, lasting change in a massive industry.

We’re passionate, committed, courageous, deep thinkers. We stick up for what we believe, we change our minds when necessary, and we aren’t afraid to offer contrary opinions and create solutions rooted in data.

We won’t slow down your innovation with red tape or decisions by committee because we expect you to dream big and execute quickly. We push when we see potential. We value what’s right over what looks good. We have a one-team, one-dream mentality because reinventing an industry isn't any small feat.

It's not life insurance. It's actually better.

Ethos is a technology company.

Our technology makes it easier than ever for everyone to protect their families with life insurance. We're taking something traditionally founded on exhausting processes and paperwork and infusing it with the insurance industry's most advanced proprietary technology, developing instant and accessible products. We issue billions in coverage each month and invaluable amounts of peace of mind every day.

Innovating and revolutionizing centuries of stagnation

Yes, we've been busy. But what's next for Ethos?

Life insurance has been around since the Civil War. It actually hasn’t changed much since the 1980s: before the internet, before email. In the short years that we’ve been around, we’ve shaken up the life insurance process almost entirely. Our co-founders Peter and Lingke are committed to rethinking the way we all get life insurance: making it an easier, faster, better, and more ethical way to protect your family.

We’ve employed a vertical stack model, deep AI, and an amazing automated underwriting process leading to the most advanced technology the industry has ever seen (which is saying a lot considering this industry started before cars).

We’re proud of our progress, the families we’ve protected, and the mission we’ve started — but there’s still so much work to be done.

Our story isn’t written just yet.

Come help us write the next chapter.
