PALO ALTO, Calif. — March 8, 2022 — Today, Jerry earns its spot among the top emerging companies liked best by their employees in the Forbes second-annual list of America’s Best Startup Employers. The company ranks no. 314 in the finance category on the 500-company list, crediting its powerful employee experience as a key driver of its rapid growth and strong reputation in the startup community.
“Our employees are the true reason we’ve been able to grow so quickly, establish an overwhelmingly positive rapport with our customers, and gain traction as an innovator in both fintech and insurtech,” said Art Agrawal, Jerry co-founder and CEO. “Each of our team members and the positive experiences they create in the workplace as we build the first super app for car ownership made this win a reality. We owe it to them.”
Forbes partnered with market research company Statista to discover the top startup employers based in the U.S. for their collective excellence in workforce contentment. By analyzing more than eight million data points, 2,500 companies initially considered were narrowed down to 500 based on three key factors: employee satisfaction, reputation and company growth.
Jerry, which first launched its AI- and machine-learning-based car insurance comparison service in 2019, also announced the launch of its auto refinancing service this month. Today the super app serves more than 2 million customers as a licensed insurance broker and an authorized auto refinance provider. In addition to its newly-launched auto refinancing service, the company is building marketplaces in repair, warranties, parking, maintenance, and additional money-saving services through its car ownership super app. Jerry customers rate the app a 4.7 in the App Store and praise the ease of use, speed of completing the transaction, automated customer flow (phone call optional), and savings.
This win is the latest of many for Jerry, recently recognized as one of Y Combinator’s Top Companies 2022, Tracxn’s Emerging Startups 2022, Linkedin’s Top Startups 2021, Otta’s Rocket List 2021, FlexJobs’ Emerging Startups Hiring Remote 2021, and more.
