Kin Insurance unifies 13 tools into Kustomer to scale home insurance customer support

The problem

As Kin scaled rapidly, its fragmented bespoke tools required engineering involvement for basic questions, gave teams no visibility into the customer journey, and left insights buried in siloed systems—causing agent frustration and slower, inconsistent customer experiences.

First attempt

Kin's prior bespoke tooling required coding and deployment for even basic tasks and provided no unified view of the customer, making it impossible to route, track, or analyze interactions at scale.
