CHAIZ
Compare and purchase extended vehicle protection plans from multiple providers in one place.
Overview
CHAIZ is a distribution marketplace for extended vehicle protection plans, serving consumers who want to compare and purchase vehicle service contracts from multiple providers in a single digital experience. The platform targets drivers across the United States and positions itself within the specialty insurance and automotive protection segments.
The platform aggregates offerings from vetted third-party vehicle protection providers, presenting side-by-side pricing and coverage comparisons. Consumers can complete the purchase entirely online without providing personal contact information upfront, bypassing the high-pressure sales tactics common at dealerships. The company also integrates with complementary service networks, including RepairPal's 4,000+ certified repair shops, and distribution partners such as FIXD, ConsumerAffairs, and NerdWallet.
CHAIZ closed an oversubscribed USD 3.7M seed round in August 2024 led by ResilienceVC, with participation from Anker Capital, Automotive Ventures, Everywhere Ventures, FJ Labs, Monte Carlo Capital, Never Lift Ventures, RedBlue Capital, and Springtime Ventures. A pre-seed round of USD 1M was completed in January 2024. The company plans to expand its marketplace beyond vehicle warranties into RV, motorsports, and home appliance protection.
