Pasito raises $21M Series A for an AI-native employee benefits platform
The company is betting benefits administration can be rebuilt around automation and personalized guidance.
HR and benefits are a classic “paperwork industry,” which makes it ripe for workflow automation—especially if the product can reduce vendor sprawl and support tickets.
What to know
- “AI-native” here usually means automated routing, document intake, and a smarter employee self-serve layer.
- The biggest risk is still integration complexity across carriers, payroll, and compliance requirements.
- If onboarding is fast and renewal workflows are smooth, benefits products can become sticky quickly.
