Proven UX-led app development for Employee Benefits

When benefits technology works, employees engage. When it doesn't, employees disengage — and the programs organizations invest in fail to deliver. We design and build digital tools that make benefits feel accessible, personal, and worth using.

Who our solutions help

Employee benefits is a people business—but the technology behind it often feels anything but. We build for everyone in the ecosystem.

Employees who need to understand, access, and use their benefits without a steep learning curve.

HR teams managing enrollment, communications, and compliance across a diverse workforce.

Benefits brokers and advisors delivering and supporting technology on behalf of their clients.

Benefits platforms and vendors building the next generation of enrollment and engagement tools.

Enterprise organizations integrating benefits tech into complex HR and payroll ecosystems.

Our process starts with real people—interviewing stakeholders across the benefits journey to understand where friction lives and where opportunity exists. From there, we design and build solutions that simplify the complex, reduce administrative burden, and help employees actually use the benefits available to them. Where appropriate, we use AI to aid in the process and integrate it into the final solution, so the people you serve get the benefit of the very latest technology.

That technology may encompass:

Experience in the space

We've worked with organizations across employee benefits, benefits distribution, healthcare, and insurance — industries that share high stakes, complex compliance requirements, and the challenge of making technical products feel human. That cross-industry experience informs how we approach the unique usability, integration, and regulatory challenges benefits technology presents.

Secure by Design

Security isn’t a layer we bolt on later—it’s baked in from the first line of code.

  • Every pull request undergoes double peer review, including one by a senior engineer

  • Automated code scanning checks for vulnerabilities before deployment

  • Our team completed 125+ hours of security training last year

  • Our team completed 100+ hours of HIPAA and privacy regulation training last year

People-Friendly by Design

Our code moves fast—but never at the expense of the human experience.

  • Automated testing gives us speed and reliability

  • Real human testers catch the nuance and polish that automation misses

  • We design and build interfaces that are as delightful as they are functional
