ProtectU builds Amparo, an AI-driven tool that translates technical insurance policy language into simple terms, centralizes policy documents, and answers specific coverage queries in real time. The startup positions itself in a B2C2B model that aims to integrate with multiple carriers rather than compete directly with insurers. Founders Juan Ramos and Guillermo Rodríguez lead the company from Uruguay and frame Amparo as a unified "wallet" for a user's insurance history. ProtectU has raised US$100,000 in angel capital as an early validation of its approach. The team plans international expansion around 2027 and seeks strategic alliances with local insurers to scale distribution. Coverage emphasizes the product's focus on reducing opacity in the insurance experience and facilitating partnerships with incumbents.
