Kinro says this coverage commonly fits contractors, lawn care businesses, plumbers and electricians, and typically comes up when tools move between jobs, equipment is left at jobsites, or the business uses scheduled, rented, leased or high-value equipment. ⁴Company-reported.

Kinro says tools and equipment coverage, handled through inland marine, typically means scheduled or blanket coverage for tools, mobile equipment and jobsite property, covering transit, overnight storage, theft and equipment value questions that a standard property policy may not fully handle. ⁴Company-reported. Tools & Equipment / Inland Marine page introduction and "Coverage" section; actual terms depend on the carrier and policy placed.

Risklytics frames this as the robotics-specific line, covering equipment damaged or stolen away from the company's own premises, such as a demo unit crushed at a customer's warehouse or a crated robot stolen in transit, and distinguishes it from general liability, which would cover a bystander injured by the same robot rather than damage to the unit itself. ⁸Company-reported.
