About
Metromile was a San Francisco-based pay-per-mile auto insurance company — acquired by Lemonade, Inc. (NYSE: LMND) in July 2022 for approximately $500 million (about $200 million net of cash) — that pioneered telematics-based usage-based insurance (UBI) in the United States, providing low-mileage drivers with auto insurance priced at a low base rate plus a per-mile fee tracked by the Metromile Pulse device (an OBD-II port dongle that measured mileage and provided vehicle diagnostics). At the time of acquisition, Metromile held insurance licenses in 49 states and had accumulated over 500 million car trip records representing a significant telematics dataset for AI-driven auto insurance modeling. Founded in 2011, Metromile expanded from Oregon to eight US states before the Lemonade acquisition integrated its operations into Lemonade's AI-powered insurance platform under SVP Dan Preston (Metromile's former CEO).

About
International Business Machines Corporation (IBM) is an Armonk, New York-based global technology and consulting company — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: IBM) as an S&P 500 component — providing hybrid cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence software, and enterprise IT consulting through approximately 270,300 employees in 170 countries with $62.8 billion in annual revenue. Founded on June 16, 1911, as Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company through a merger orchestrated by financier Charles Ranlett Flint, renamed IBM in 1924 under Thomas Watson Sr., IBM has undergone multiple strategic transformations over its 110+ year history: building the System/360 mainframe platform (1964), launching the IBM PC (1981), selling the PC division to Lenovo (2005, $1.75B), and completing the $34 billion Red Hat acquisition (2019) that repositioned IBM as a hybrid cloud platform company. CEO Arvind Krishna (appointed April 2020) has focused IBM's strategy on three areas: hybrid cloud (powered by Red Hat OpenShift, the enterprise Kubernetes platform), AI (the watsonx platform for enterprise AI model development and deployment), and enterprise consulting. Under Krishna, IBM recorded $12.7 billion in free cash flow in 2024 (a company record), surpassed $6 billion in generative AI bookings since June 2023, and saw the stock price double — trading at all-time highs through 2024-2025. IBM announced the DataStax acquisition in 2025 to deepen watsonx's data layer with AstraDB (vector database for AI applications), DataStax Enterprise (Apache Cassandra), and Langflow (low-code AI agent development).
