Next Insurance is a digital-first insurance platform that enables small businesses to obtain commercial insurance coverage—including general liability, professional liability, workers' compensation, and commercial auto—in as little as 10 minutes through a 100% online process. The company serves over 750,000 small businesses across 1,300+ professions with instant proof of insurance and U.S.-based support. Unlike traditional brokers requiring weeks of back-and-forth, Next Insurance provides tailored quotes and immediate binding, eliminating the friction of legacy insurance purchasing. In July 2025, the company was acquired by Munich Re Group's ERGO for $2.6 billion.
