About Jerry.ai

Your car and your home are your most expensive assets. And for most people, these aren't just purchases, they're the physical embodiment of the life you've worked hard to build. Yet the experience of owning them is stuck in the 90s. Every step of the journey — buying, insuring, maintaining, repairing, selling — is fragmented, complicated, and expensive.

Imagine having a trusted friend in your pocket who takes care of everything: they find you the right car or home at the right price, lock in the best insurance rate without you lifting a finger, remind you before that service appointment turns into an expensive repair or, worse, an accident, and help you sell at the best price when the time is right. That friend is Jerry.

Jerry is building the first AI agent to manage all your physical assets. We started with car insurance in 2019, became one of the top 3 brokers in the U.S., then added driving insights, diagnostics, and a repair marketplace.

We've reached 5M+ customers, raised $240M+, and have been profitable since 2024. We're now expanding into home, motorcycle, RV, and beyond.

We’re fully remote with offices in Palo Alto, New York, Chicago, and Toronto.

What We Do

At Jerry, we’re building a car ownership super app that puts comparison shopping, financing, driving, maintenance and parking solutions at your fingertips and savings in your wallet. We believe drivers deserve better. Why can’t shopping for insurance, financing and maintaining your vehicle be a click, a swipe or a text away? It should be. We’re making that happen. Our custom artificial intelligence, machine learning and bots allow us to provide the best, personalized service for all car ownership needs. The Jerry team’s focus on customer experience results in exceptional transaction speed. With our first product, Jerry redesigned and disrupted the century-old car insurance process, turning stacks of pages and hours of calls into a handful of clicks. That’s why we’re the only car insurance marketplace that gives you the best, customized quotes from more than 55 name-brand insurance carriers in 45 seconds. Jerry helps drivers shop for the best price, compare against current coverage, purchase without a single phone call (unless you want one!) and maintain the best policy for your needs. Led by serial entrepreneurs, tech elite alumni, and fintech, insurtech and auto experts, Jerry attracts people driven to create a customer experience that makes people happy by saving them money and time. And it’s working. Jerry is the #1 rated and most downloaded app in the category. With headquarters in the heart of Silicon Valley, offices in Toronto and Buffalo, and remote team members in four countries, Jerry has removed physical location from recruiting restraints to capture top talent. Join us.
