Beshak Origin Story
Insurance should subtract worries, not add to them
Beshak is a community of users, insurance geeks and industry experts coming together to fix this!
The puzzle called Insurance 🤨
We saw how insurance ads promised peace of mind, but also ranked highest in consumer complaints in India.
We saw how there is more worry, less excitement about buying insurance.
Are there fine print I missed? Will I get claims? What if something goes wrong?
Neither people are able to understand insurance themselves, or find a real expert who they can depend on.
To solve this puzzle, we set on Mission Beshak
Beshak is a mission to bring resources, tools and experts that ensures you are never puzzled, and buy insurance with confidence.
Advice you can trust
We wanted to bring advice with zero hidden agenda.
We decided to build a platform that will not team up with insurers on commissions, ensuring we are 100% unbiased
