Advertiser Disclosure

At Insurify, our goal is to help customers compare insurance products and find the best policy for them. We strive to provide open, honest, and unbiased information about the insurance products and services we review. Our hard-working team of data analysts, insurance experts, insurance agents, editors and writers, has put in thousands of hours of research to create the content found on our site.

We do receive compensation when a sale or referral occurs from many of the insurance providers and marketing partners on our site. That may impact which products we display and where they appear on our site. But it does not influence our meticulously researched editorial content, what we write about, or any reviews or recommendations we may make. We do not guarantee favorable reviews or any coverage at all in exchange for compensation.

Why you can trust Insurify: Insurify’s expert insurance writers and editors operate independently of our insurance partners. As an independent agent and insurance comparison website, we make money through commissions from insurers. But that does not influence any editorial content, including reviews. Learn more.

If you’re looking to buy new insurance, comparing quotes is a key step in making sure you get the best rate. Rather than getting quotes from individual providers, drivers can use a quote-comparison site to compare auto insurance quotes side-by-side.

Jerry is one of many quote-comparison sites, but how does it compare to similar companies like Insurify, The Zebra, and Gabi? Let’s explore the differences.

Quick Facts
  • To compare quotes with Jerry, you’ll need to download the Jerry app.

  • Jerry automatically shops around for users every six months prior to each renewal period, providing the three best options it finds.

  • Jerry’s mobile app provides tools for vehicle maintenance, receipt management, and quote comparison.

What is Jerry Insurance?

What is Jerry Insurance?

Jerry, formerly known as Jerry.ai, is a service designed to work like a personal insurance agent. It partners with car insurance companies like Progressive, Nationwide, and Geico, as well as over 50 others to find users customized car, home, and renters insurance quotes.

Through its use of artificial intelligence and machine learning, Jerry claims that it can save customers an average of $800 per year on car insurance.

How does Jerry work?

You’ll start by filling out some information about your current coverage and driving history on its website. You’ll need to enter your name and phone number as well, after which Jerry will send you a verification code by text. The company promises to not sell or share your contact information with any external companies or spam you with any phone calls or emails.

You will then input how you primarily use your car and its daily mileage. Users also have the option to choose whether they use their car for rideshare or delivery, and Jerry takes these factors into consideration when calculating quotes.

Finally, Jerry prompts you to select any discounts that might apply to you. However, when the process is finished, Jerry Insurance redirects you to download its mobile app to actually see your quotes.

After downloading the Jerry app, you will be prompted to enter your phone number again to create an account, after which you will see various quotes from different insurance companies. If you click on a quote, you’ll see an option labeled: ‘Get final price.’ Once you select this option, Jerry asks you for your license number. Only after entering that can you see your real quote.

From this point on, Jerry puts your insurance shopping on autopilot by automatically shopping for new quotes with more than 50 insurance providers before each renewal. You won’t have to speak to an agent or any salespeople to set up your new policy.

The bulk of reviews for the company is focused on the mobile app since that is where actual quotes are found. It has mostly good reviews on the Google Play Store and Apple’s App Store (4.1 stars and 4.7 stars, respectively), along with video reviews from customers on its website.

Jerry vs. Insurify: The Facts

Jerry and Insurify both aim to find people the best rates on car insurance, but each company achieves this goal differently. Jerry Insurance focuses on providing a quick and easy quote comparison experience on its app, while Insurify lets users compare multiple quotes all on its website.

Insurify is unique among quote-comparison sites in that it has an accuracy estimator that shows how confident Insurify is in the quotes it is showing you. You can also edit your elected insurance coverage after using the tool and see the provided quotes change right along with it.

Jerry vs. Gabi

Jerry and Gabi both offer tools to compare car insurance quotes, but differ slightly in how quotes are delivered. Gabi provides quotes via email after using the tool, while Jerry shows quotes in its app. Both require an account, but Jerry only asks for your phone number rather than your email address.

Jerry’s mobile app offers vehicle management tools like maintenance scheduling, receipt management, and seeing open recalls on your car. The app sets Jerry apart from others in the quote-comparison space, as most quote-comparison platforms do not have mobile apps.

Jerry vs. NerdWallet

Nerdwallet is primarily a personal finance website that focuses on topics like investing, credit cards, and student loans. Unlike Jerry, NerdWallet does not have its own quote-comparison tool and instead redirects users to insure.com to get an actual quote.

How to Save on Car Insurance

The best way to save money on your auto insurance policy is to use quote-comparison tools to compare premiums. Both Jerry and Insurify are insurance quote comparison sites that offer a convenient process by which you can easily identify the cheapest insurance quote for you.

With Insurify, you can compare car insurance rates all on its site without having to download an app. Insurify users can save up to $996 annually by switching to a policy they find on the site. The best part? Insurify is completely free to use and the process only takes about five minutes.

Methodology

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 90 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 50+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

Liability-only premium averages correspond to policies with the following coverage limits:

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
  • Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible

Quotes for Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, State Farm, and USAA are estimates based on Quadrant Information Services’ database of auto insurance rates.
