Ripe were expanding their growing portfolio of niche insurance products and looked for a software development partner who could help bridge the tech skills gap in Manchester and help the business to scale.
Ripe has been providing niche insurance services to businesses and consumers since 1998, when they launched their first insurance product for Golfers.
Ripe's "technology first" ethos is all about making insurance straightforward and cost effective for over 200,000 policy holders.
Recently Ripe has seen a selection of industry recognition from winning the Fintech awards 2018 and the Insurance Choice Awards 2017, to placing on the Sunday Times ones to watch 2018.
Ripe’s ethos is all about making insurance easy-to-buy, simple-to-understand, jargon-free and excellent value. Applying this to their rapidly expanding portfolio of insurance products, ranging from golf to boats to drones to valuables.
Godel worked with Ripe on two of their insurance products. Assisting with both the front end consumer facing website, along with their call centre application.
"We are a fast paced business with requirements to release as many as 100 software changes a month," Explains Dan Fulton, CTO.
Having worked with both offshore and nearshore partners previously Dan was aware and had experience of the differences between the two.
"Talent acquisition in Manchester is a challenge. Using a nearshore partner like Godel gives me access to good technical resource on a reliable basis."
