Meet Benny. The one who actually answers the benefits questions.
Upload your plan documents once. Benny reads them and answers employee questions all day, citing the exact page, so you stop being the human FAQ.
No card required. Most portals go live the same afternoon.
Ask BennyAnswers from your documents onlyHi! I'm Benny. I answer from your official benefits documents — with page citations so you can verify.
Benny answers the questions before they land in your inbox.
Ask if a dermatologist is in network, whether physical therapy needs a referral, what the deductible resets to in January. Benny reads the actual documents you uploaded and answers with the exact page it pulled from — so nobody has to take your word for it, and you're not digging through a PDF between meetings.
If a question falls outside the documents, Benny says so and hands the employee to your benefits team — it never guesses.
Every answer footnotes the file and page. Pick one:
No login, so people actually use it.
Employees click a link, on a phone or a laptop. That's it. No account to create, no password to remember. If your legal team wants a layer of protection anyway, there's an optional site-wide password you can turn on.
Upload the documents, skip the data entry.
Drop in your SBCs, formularies, and plan summaries. The AI pulls the plan details out automatically. You review and confirm before anything goes live — no rebuilding your benefits guide by hand every renewal season.
Renewal season without the two-plan-year mess.
Load next year's plans and preview them before they go live, with a banner marking them as upcoming. Benny already knows the difference, so nobody reads pricing off the wrong year by accident. Flip to the new year manually whenever you're ready — the old one stays searchable in the archive for a full year after.
2025 stays searchable in the archive until December 31, 2026.
The things HR ends up handling by email, handled on the site.
Announcements that don't get lost in email.
Post a carrier change or a wellness event straight to the site, where people are already looking for benefits info. That beats one more email that gets skimmed and deleted.
A countdown that makes the deadline everyone's problem.
A visible countdown to your enrollment deadline sits right on the homepage. “I forgot open enrollment ended” gets a lot harder to say.
Guidance for the moments that actually matter.
Getting married, having a kid, losing coverage somewhere else: questions people search for once a year and can never find an answer to. Write the guidance once, and it's there whenever someone needs it.
You have 30 days from the wedding date to add a spouse. Bring the marriage certificate; coverage is effective the date of the event, not the date you file.
Newborns are covered for the first 31 days automatically. File the enrollment inside that window to keep coverage continuous, and check the HSA contribution limit change.
A spouse's job loss is a qualifying event. You have 30 days to join the plan mid-year — after that, you wait for open enrollment.
The everyday stuff, right where people expect it.
A pharmacy list. Carrier contacts kept separate from your broker and HR contacts, so people know who to actually call. And when Benny hits a question it shouldn't answer alone, it routes the person to your real benefits team.
Sharing the site is part of the product, not an afterthought.
A copy-paste link, a QR code for the breakroom flyer, and pre-written announcement text, so getting the word out doesn't turn into its own project.

Your 2027 benefits site is live at benefits.meridianmfg.com. Every plan, every document, and an assistant that answers questions from our actual plan documents. No login needed — bookmark it.
It looks like yours.
Custom domain, custom header, your logo and your colors. Employees are trusting this site with real decisions about their health coverage. One that looks like it belongs to your company earns that trust faster than one that looks rented.
Logo, colors and header on every plan. Your own domain is included with Advanced.
Meridian Mfg.Ask BennyBuilt for more than one kind of employee.
Executives, hourly staff, union and non-union, multiple states: set up separate employee groups, each with its own plans and its own URL, without building a second site.
Published groups per site: Essentials: 1 employee group · Professional: 2 employee groups · Advanced: unlimited employee groups.
Proof the information is current.
Every document carries a “Verified for [plan year]” stamp employees can see for themselves, and you get a nudge before anything's about to go stale. Nobody has to wonder if the deductible number they're looking at is this year's or last year's.
Staleness nudge. Ninety days before your plan year ends, Benefits Studio emails you the list of documents that need a fresh look.
Running it doesn't eat your afternoon.
Four tabs, not one long scroll: what needs attention today, initial setup, your content, and the settings you touch twice a year. You see what's actually waiting on you, not everything you've already done.
See it running on a real plan.
