Benefits Eligibility Automation for HR Teams

Your AI agent reviews employee records and plan documents to deliver instant, personalized eligibility answers—no more digging through PDFs or endless email chains.

You spend hours each week as a benefits specialist or HR manager, toggling between ADP, Excel, and SharePoint just to confirm who qualifies for what. Each request means searching plan PDFs, double-checking in Workday, and crafting custom emails to staff. The manual back-and-forth delays responses and increases the risk of missing a critical detail.

An AI agent that instantly reviews employee data and plan rules to determine and explain individual benefits eligibility for HR and benefits specialists.

What this replaces

The hidden cost

What this is really costing you

In financial services, HR and benefits administrators waste valuable time confirming employee eligibility for health, dental, and retirement plans. The process often involves pulling data from ADP, referencing plan documents stored in SharePoint, and manually drafting explanations for each inquiry. This repetitive work slows down response times and exposes your organization to compliance risks if something is missed.
