While EVs typically have lower total cost of ownership and fewer maintenance requirements, longtime owners have found that EVs often outlive their warranties, which ends up costing drivers if they have issues with high voltage parts or the battery.
That’s why at Amber, we offer modern protection plans and repair services to give owners the confidence to own electric vehicles as they age. Unlike traditional extended warranty programs, Amber’s EV care program was designed with the top EV technicians and communities to be tailored for the EV ownership experience.
Amber is a seed-stage startup led by an experienced group of operators at the intersection of insurtech (Metromile; NYSE: LMND), mobility (Samsara; NYSE: IOT), and automotive (Hyundai), (Tesla; NASDAQ: TSLA).

The JOBS Act (passed in 2012 and enacted in 2016) allows all Americans to invest in startups, which was previously limited to only the wealthy elite. Now, thousands of everyday investors put millions of dollars into startups every year.
Despite that, there is still no research and analytics solutions similar to the public market (e.g., Morningstar, Bloomberg, SeekingAlpha, The Motley Fool) to empower individuals to make informed investment decisions.
Kingscrowd aims to empower everyone to invest in startups confidently through a suite of products including research, ratings, data analytics, founder interviews, and financial products. Kingscrowd collects hundreds of data points on every startup that raises money online, and our patent-pending algorithm provides a quantitative assessment of the startups investment potential. We believe in the power of data-driven investment decisions.
