About Eventual Eventual is a well-funded AI fintech startup on a mission to improve housing affordability for hundreds of millions of Americans. We use AI and proprietary data to build (i) software and (ii) novel embedded financial products to bring better predictability to housing operating expenses. Today, we're focused on emerging problems in the cost of insuring US property under changing climate, inflation, and regulatory dynamics.
