Benefits-Aware Financial Guidance

Intuitive, personalized financial guidance from AI that understands your benefits ecosystem.

Our Benefits-Aware Financial Guidance solution connects to an employee’s full financial picture, including the benefits you offer, and helps them understand and act on what’s available to them — across every stage of their financial life.

It’s time to close the benefits utilization gap

Employees don’t experience their finances in tidy categories. Each decision affects the next, across both sides of the balance sheet — but nothing connects those dots, so employees make choices in isolation and benefits go underutilized.

The answer isn’t more benefits. It’s connective tissue across the stack you’ve already built. Candidly delivers AI-native financial guidance grounded in each employee’s real financial data and the benefits you offer, in real time and at any scale — so what you fund gets used, and fewer one-off questions land on HR.

Turn unused benefits into value

1 in 3 employees enrolled in a high-deductible health plan never open the HSA they’re eligible for, and 34% leave free 401(k) match dollars unclaimed every year.1

Streamline benefits Q&A

45% of employees say they don’t fully understand their benefits, and 54% wish they had personalized benefits recommendations.2

Cut the hidden cost of financial stress

Financially stressed employees cost U.S. employers an estimated $250 billion in lost productivity every year.3

Inside the experience

Approachable, dynamic interface

Financial guidance is delivered through Cait™, our Conversational AI Tool. Employees can ask Cait questions through text or voice and get instant answers tailored to their own financial goals — so they can make more informed decisions on everything from retirement to debt to daily cash flow.

Intelligent personalization

Every step is tailored, using insights from payroll, benefits enrollment, and employees’ own records. Cait also remembers past activity to personalize users’ experience even more over time.

Interactive visualizations

Pinnable, in-chat artifacts help users forecast progress, compare options, and understand processes.

Smart dashboards

Users can work with Cait to build custom dashboards that visualize goals and track changes over time.

AI you can put in front of your people

Employees are already asking general-purpose AI about their money. We built our solutions so they don’t have to settle for answers that aren’t grounded in their actual finances — or protected the way their data should be.

Responsible safeguards

Guidance stays within defined boundaries and is designed to trace back to auditable sources.

Verifiable by design

Critical calculations take into consideration your program design, and run on deterministic logic — not probabilistic generation.

Bank-grade security

Data is protected to standards the largest financial institutions have already cleared: SOC 2 Type I & II compliant, NIST 800-53 Rev. 5 aligned, and deployable on-prem.
