Founded by 3 Canadian tech entrepreneurs, Certn was born out of the need for a system that allowed the self-employed to gain easy access to credit and rental properties. By combining AI with social and behavioural data Certn launched in 2016 to enable financial institutions and property managers to better evaluate their applicants without relying solely on credit scores.

Today Certn has offices in both Toronto and Victoria and services clients all over North America.
