Four problems we've solved
for creative companies like yours.
Losing talent over coverage gaps
A competitor offers parental leave. You don't. You find out when someone resigns. We've fixed this for 80+ studios.
73%
of creative workers say benefits influenced their last job decision
Costs climbing with no explanation
Renewal comes. Premiums jump 18%. Your broker shrugs. We read the actuary report line by line and push back.

Starting from scratch
You promised great benefits. Now you have to deliver. We've launched first-time plans for 60+ agencies — in under four weeks.
3 wks
average time from first call to employee enrollment
Union + non-union complexity
Two populations, different rules, one spreadsheet. We untangle dual-track structures and make compliance feel manageable.
100%
of our union-parity audits passed on first review
From confused to covered
in about four weeks.
No long contracts. No confusing proposals. Just a clear plan your team will actually use.
We read what you have
Send us your current plan documents — or tell us you don't have any yet. We do a full audit: gaps, overpayments, compliance flags, and the one thing your broker never mentioned.
We sit down and talk
One conversation. No jargon. We ask about your team — who's about to have a baby, who's worried about their parents, who's been asking about retirement. Then we build from there.
You get a plan your team wants
We present options in plain English — not 40-page PDFs. You pick. We handle enrollment, carrier negotiations, and the paperwork. Your job is just to tell your team the good news.
Let's look at
your plan.
Tell us where you are. We'll tell you exactly what we see — no pitch, no pressure. Just a clear read on your current situation and what a better one could look like.
No broker fees. We work for you, not the carriers.
First review is complimentary — no commitment.
We've done this for 340+ creative companies.
