The EB Applied AI team is a rapidly growing team focused on providing deep insight, automation, and augmentation across the policy lifecycle for Employee Benefits customers and internal business stakeholders.

Our E2E projects will include integrated, interactive solutions with a toolkit including generative AI, agents, natural language processing, computer vision, and predictive machine learning techniques. We deliver value by partnering closely with enterprise enablement and other line of business data science teams to help build a consistent approach to architecture and practices across AI products while tailoring solutions to our customers' unique needs in accuracy, transparency, and scalability.
