Built on your plans.
Not generic information.

Athena is trained exclusively on your actual benefits materials. Every answer references real plan information — not internet generics or hallucinated coverage details.

Source-grounded responses

Every answer traces directly to your uploaded benefits documents — references visible to employees.

Employer-trained AI

Trained on your plan documents, OE materials, and FAQs — not generic information from the internet.

No PHI required

Employees ask questions in plain language. No protected health information is collected or stored.

Employer-governed communication

Every response stays within your approved standards. Your benefits team retains full visibility and control.

Workforce intelligence

Understand what your workforce
needs most.
