Who Is Coterie?
Coterie Insurance is a digital small-business insurance company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio. It operates as a technology-first carrier and program administrator, offering commercial coverage through an API-driven platform that can return accurate, bindable prices in under a minute. Coterie focuses on micro and small businesses—typically those with $10 million or less in annual revenue and fewer than 50 employees—and is licensed to write in all 50 states. Its policies are backed by established, financially rated carrier partners.
Coterie distributes almost entirely through independent agents, brokers, and embedded partners rather than selling directly, which makes it a natural fit for an agency like Better Choice Insurance Group. Because its platform delivers instant quotes for common small-business classes such as contractors, consultants, retailers, and service providers, we can place straightforward risks quickly and affordably. For clients who simply need reliable general liability, professional liability, or a Business Owners Policy without a lengthy underwriting process, Coterie is often one of the most efficient options on our panel.
