About

Independent education for drivers, not insurers.

About Curbside Insured

We exist because most American drivers have never been told that a separate, carrier-built score derived from their credit file influences what they pay for auto insurance. We are not insurance professionals. We are educators. We translate dense regulatory language and carrier filings into plain English so drivers can make informed decisions — without being routed into a sales funnel.
