About Us

We are Committed to Reinventing Benefit Distribution and Healthcare Navigation

Our North Star

The American healthcare system is failing its people. When more than 70% of Americans feel failed by their healthcare system, when six in ten insured adults struggle with their coverage, when millions delay care due to confusion and costs – this isn't just a problem. This is a crisis calling for transformation.

We envision a future where healthcare navigation isn't a maze, but a guided journey. Where understanding and accessing care isn't a privilege, but a right. Where technology serves humanity by making healthcare more accessible, understandable, and manageable for all.

Our Mission is to Simplify Healthcare for:

  • The 60-70% of Americans struggling with healthcare navigation
  • Brokers drowning in fragmented systems
  • Payers seeking to better serve their members
  • Employers and benefits advisors wanting to provide better benefits guidance
  • Providers striving to keep patients within their care network
  • Persons facing healthcare decisions alone

Through Relentless Innovation, We Will:

  1. Transform Medicare navigation with MedicareCopilot™, bringing clarity to seniors and efficiency to brokers
  2. Revolutionize benefits understanding with BenefitsCopilot™, empowering employees and employers alike
  3. Advance health literacy with HealthLiteracyCopilot™, ensuring consumers can understand and act on their healthcare choices

Our Core Values and Guiding Principles

  1. Lead with empathy, innovate with purpose
  2. Make the complex simple, the difficult accessible

  5. Measure success by lives improved

This is more than a mission – it is our revolution in healthcare navigation.

This is more than innovation – it is our commitment to every American struggling with healthcare decisions.

This is more than a company – it is our commitment to transforming the healthcare journey.
