Test and optimize policy customization UX with realistic simulations for solo insurtechs.
Solo insurtech founders without design teams struggle to create intuitive UX for complex insurance policy customization features.
CoverSim lets founders upload or build policy UIs, then run user simulations with A/B tests and heatmaps to identify drop-offs in complex flows. AI suggests UX fixes based on insurance benchmarks. Export optimized designs or reports to iterate fast without real users.
