February 28, 2020 Breezy launched on Product Hunt and got featured!

Hi We're Breezy, we want to help you quickly find the best and most affordable insurance for your pets!

This is our MVP launch and we’re still at least a few weeks away from the solution that we initially envisioned. However, after the first week of YC Startup School course where Michael Seibel emphasized the importance of having an MVP and getting feedback from customers early on, my Co-Founder Richard & I sat down and discussed what we can do or how many features we can trim down to get something out in 4 weeks instead of 10, which led to our launch today!

We initially launched on Feb 27th at 11 a.m. and shared the news via social media. After a few hours, something strange happened and our post got disabled. It was quite confusing and frustrating as we didn't make any changes to the post, but everyone who came to our page couldn't upvote for us. I later found out disabling our post actually means we got featured on their front page, and Product Hunt rescheduled our launch to Feb 28th, 12:00 AM so we have another full day on the platform.

I'd love for you to check out our website and reach out with any questions or comments. All feedbacks are greatly appreciated!

October 22, 2019 How we came up with the idea Breezy

As someone who owns a dog that has gone through 3 surgeries with the most recent one being last week, I've gone through phases of not having pet insurance to having pet insurance and back to not having pet insurance.

The reason why we decided to build Breezy is that as a pet parent myself, I found the pet insurance search process to be extremely redundant and overwhelming as you have to fill out the same application form over and over again just to get a quote. In addition, understanding each provider's policy and exclusions can be very frustrating as they can be quite different depending on the plan you choose. Lastly, there is no clear evidence as to why the prices vary so much when comparing one company to another.

Our goal is to make the pet insurance search process easy and transparent. And we’re in the process of adding more providers to our website our users will have more options to compare and choose from.

The pet insurance search process is difficult and redundant, and the quotes are not transparent as to why the prices could vary so much when compared one company to another.
