Innovation roadmap driven by new leadership with deep industry expertise, poised to revolutionize how people choose, use and manage benefits
ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — PlanSource, a leading cloud-based provider of benefits administration technology and services, today announced its strategic 2025 vision and product roadmap, with a specific focus on meaningful integration of AI to streamline administrative processes and enhance the efficiencies for benefits administrators. While most benefits administration companies concentrate solely on leveraging AI to improve the employee experience, PlanSource is pioneering AI-driven solutions that equally prioritize the needs of benefits administrators. This dual focus ensures a more seamless, efficient and impactful benefits administration experience for all stakeholders.
Healthcare costs for employers are expected to rise for the third consecutive year, with an estimated increase of roughly seven percent. HR leaders are under increasing pressure to reduce these costs through innovative benefit strategies and employee engagement initiatives. However, due to budget constraints and small internal teams, benefit teams often get bogged down with the day-to-day challenges of administering employer-sponsored benefits.
To support its clients, PlanSource delivered several impactful new features in 2024, including an AI assistant chatbot, customized messaging platform powered by ChatGPT, expanded carrier API integrations and enhanced payroll solutions. Building on this momentum, PlanSource is investing in several key areas in 2025 as part of its mission to make it easier for people to choose, use and manage benefits through engaging AI-powered experiences. Some examples include:
- More AI-powered solutions for HR teams, including report generation and data visualization tools, to increase efficiency, manage cost and deliver deep insights for HR leaders.
- A new employee enrollment experience that includes bundled decision support that provides enrollment suggestions across all plans to simplify the enrollment process and create confident and informed employees.
- Enhancements to the employee engagement platform to ensure employees can more easily find, understand, and use all of the benefits and tools available to them, whenever and wherever they need.
- Reseller implementation tools that make it easy to implement and launch customers faster and with more automation and accuracy.
- Expansion across the benefits ecosystem through additional strategic API and SSO integrations with the leading carriers and healthcare solutions to drive real-time exchange of data and efficiency as well as a more seamless user experience.
“2025 will be a monumental year for PlanSource as we focus on bringing thoughtful AI-powered technology enhancements to the market that will improve our customers day-to-day,” says Eddie Pinto, SVP of Product at PlanSource. “We know the ever-evolving landscape of benefits administration is time-consuming and expensive, and our goal is to help our customers and their employees get the most out of their benefit programs.”
In addition to exciting product enhancements, PlanSource has recently added several experienced leaders from the workforce management and benefits industry:
- Mike Morini, a 30-year software veteran with extensive experience growing and scaling global, high-growth, cloud-based platforms with a leadership style focused on customers, culture and community, joined as Chief Executive Officer.
