About Cerity:
Doing insurance better for small busineses, small businesses make our country awesome. The least we can do is insure them right.

From the mom-and-pop diner to the local law firm to the corner tattoo parlor, small businesses keep America thriving—and interesting. Can you imagine Austin without taquerias? Or New York without pizzerias? We shudder at the thought.

That’s why it’s so frustrating that the insurance industry has always put big business first.
They run on extensive contracts, pricey premiums, and layers of bureaucracy that are just fine for their fellow corporates—but are blind to the needs of small biz.

SO WE FLIPPED THE SCRIPT.
Cerity was created to make insurance better for small businesses, every step of the way.
