Coverdash Partners with Housecall Pro, Bringing Embedded Business Insurance to Home Service Pros

Home service professionals can compare quotes from 30+ leading commercial carriers, purchase coverage in minutes, and access certificates of insurance without leaving Housecall Pro

NEW YORK, Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Coverdash, a leading digital insurtech company transforming embedded insurance, and Housecall Pro, a leading field service management platform trusted by over 200,000 home service professionals, have partnered to change how home service businesses access and manage insurance. By embedding Coverdash’s end-to-end experience directly into the Housecall Pro® platform, plumbers, HVAC technicians, electricians, cleaners, landscapers, and other pros now have seamless access to coverage alongside the tools they already use to run their operations every day.

Running a home service business means juggling a constant stream of demands: scheduling jobs, dispatching technicians, invoicing, and growing a team. Insurance sits at the center of it all—protecting the business from on-the-job accidents and property damage, and satisfying the contract requirements that often demand proof of coverage before work can even begin. Yet it has always been one more thing handled separately, sourced through a different vendor, managed elsewhere, and renewed through a different process each year. For busy trades professionals, that friction compounds quickly.

Through this partnership, Coverdash integrates directly into the Housecall Pro platform, allowing pros to access tailored coverage in the same place they schedule jobs, manage customers, and process payments. Through a seamless integration, Housecall Pro has embedded Coverdash’s full experience spanning General Liability, Workers’ Compensation, Commercial Auto, Professional Liability, Cyber, Business Owners Policies, and more. Users get instant quotes, compare hundreds of carriers, and purchase coverage in minutes. Once covered, users can download a Certificate of Insurance directly within the Housecall Pro solution, making it effortless to share proof of coverage the moment it’s requested.

The integration also includes Coverdash’s pay-as-you-go workers’ compensation product, which connects premiums directly to real-time workforce data. Users can opt in at the point of payroll, so coverage activates alongside their team from day one. Rather than estimating annual payroll upfront and reconciling at year-end, premiums update automatically with each pay cycle—meaning pros pay only based on what they actually pay their team.

“Home service professionals are running demanding businesses every day,” said Ralph Betesh, CEO of Coverdash. “The last thing they should have to worry about is whether they’re properly covered. By embedding directly into the Housecall Pro platform, we’re meeting pros exactly where they work and making it effortless to get the right coverage in minutes. This is what insurance should look like for the modern small business owner.”

The Housecall Pro platform was built to be the operating system for home service businesses, with features spanning scheduling, dispatching, digital invoicing, payment processing, payroll, accounting AI-powered tools, and marketing automation. Adding embedded insurance through Coverdash makes the platform truly all-in-one, building on Coverdash’s proven track record of doing the same for other industry leaders.

“Our goal is to help home service professionals manage every aspect of their business from a single platform,” said Brooks Pettus, President of Housecall Pro. “Insurance is critical to running and growing a service business, and it’s traditionally been disconnected from the tools pros use every day. By partnering with Coverdash, we’re helping our Pros secure coverage and stay compliant so they can focus on what they do best—delivering great work and taking care of their customers—all without leaving Housecall Pro.”

Teledyne LeCroy’s Voyager M4120 sets a new benchmark for USB protocol analysis with full support for USB4® Version 2.0

MILPITAS, Calif., Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Teledyne LeCroy Inc., the global leader in protocol test solutions, today announced the availability of the Voyager M4120 Protocol Analyzer/Exerciser, the world’s only solution supporting next-generation USB4® Gen 4 120Gb/s Asymmetric Link emulation and analysis. This new flagship system equips engineering teams with the visibility and capabilities needed to test, debug, analyze, and verify USB4 Gen 4 120Gb/s hosts and devices throughout the product development lifecycle. The all-new Voyager M4120 also provides numerous selectable views allowing the user to quickly and easily identify information of interest and resolve any issues that are contained in the data capture. 

The USB4 Version 2.0 specification introduces a revolutionary new feature in USB technology – Asymmetric Link configurations. In this configuration, the two directions of the connection operate at different lane rates. One direction transmits at the full 120Gb/s over three lanes while the opposite direction transmits a lower rate, such as 40Gb/s on just one lane. This enables systems and devices to dynamically provide more bandwidth for high-throughput applications, such as tunneled Ultra‑High Bit Rate (UHBR) DisplayPort 2.1 real-time video processing workloads.

“USB4 Version 2.0 represents a major step forward for the industry, delivering higher performance and more dynamic link behavior than previous generations,” said Jeff Ravencraft, President & COO of the USB Implementers Forum (USB-IF). “Tools like the Voyager M4120 give developers the visibility they need to validate Asymmetric Link characteristics and ensure robust interoperability as these advanced capabilities enter the market.”

About the Voyager M4120 Protocol Analyzer

The Voyager M4120 is engineered from the ground up to capture and decode USB Gen 4 120Gb/s Asymmetric Links, fully supporting the USB4 Version 2.0 specification. The analyzer reveals what actually happens during Asymmetric Link bring up and operation—from how devices decide lane roles and rates to how links adapt dynamically under real workloads. Powerful software features, including a hierarchical display, protocol traffic summaries, detailed error reports and an automation API enable developers to quickly visualize protocol activity and streamline troubleshooting efforts. Built on a flexible architecture, the Voyager M4120 is designed to expand with emerging workflows, including asymmetric traffic generation and USB-IF compliance test capabilities as they become available, helping early adopters accelerate development and improve interoperability for the next wave of high speed USB4 connectivity. Fully backward compatible with legacy Gen 3, Gen 2 and Gen 1 USB links, the Voyager M4120 can seamlessly address the past, present, and future of USB protocol testing.

Availability

The Teledyne LeCroy Voyager M4120 protocol analyzer can be ordered now. For additional information, contact Teledyne LeCroy at 1-800-5LeCroy (1-800-553-2769) or visit Teledyne LeCroy’s web site at https://www.teledynelecroy.com/protocolanalyzer/usb-voyager-m4120.

Jorge Couto Named to Forbes Business Council; Debuts Thought Leadership Article on Turning Insight into Action

Securitas North America Division President joins invitation-only community of business leaders and shares perspectives on leadership, decision-making and organizational performance in his first Forbes Business Council article.

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Securitas North America today announced that Jorge Couto, Division President, Securitas North America, has been accepted into the Forbes Business Council, an invitation-only organization for accomplished business leaders and executives. As part of his membership, Couto recently published his first thought-leadership article, “The Leadership Gap Between Insight and Action,” on the Forbes Councils platform.

“Organizations today have more information than ever before, but information alone does not drive results.” Jorge Couto

In the article, Couto examines a challenge facing organizations across industries: the inability to consistently translate data and insights into timely, effective action. Drawing on more than 26 years of leadership experience in operational transformation and business growth, he argues that successful organizations distinguish themselves not by access to information, but by their ability to empower leaders, clarify decision-making responsibilities, and foster cultures of accountability and trust.

“Organizations today have more information than ever before, but information alone does not drive results,” said Couto. “The real opportunity lies in creating environments where leaders are trusted and equipped to make informed decisions quickly, learn from outcomes and transform insights into meaningful action.”

In “The Leadership Gap Between Insight and Action,” Couto highlights several key themes, including the importance of clearly defined ownership, leadership development, confidence in decision-making and organizational cultures that encourage learning rather than blame. He notes that businesses that can effectively move from data to insight, from insight to action, and from action to learning are better positioned to compete in rapidly changing markets.

Forbes Business Council is recognized as a premier growth and networking organization for successful business owners and leaders. Through the Council, members contribute expert insights on leadership, strategy, innovation, and business performance to a global audience of executives and decision-makers.

Couto’s article, “The Leadership Gap Between Insight and Action,” was published on July 21, 2026, and is available on Securitas and the Forbes Councils platform.
