    AI-native Enterprise Benefits Intelligence

    Transform your Employee Benefits with Enterprise Benefits Intelligence

    Benefits are your second-biggest people cost. But a lack of visibility, transparency, and control means you’re operating in the dark. Origin™, the world’s first Enterprise Benefits Intelligence platform, is here to help you take control and cut waste - so everything you spend genuinely supports your people.

    We’re on a mission to put the power of AI in your hands

    We’re starting a movement, led by people who want to make a difference. Created by benefits professionals for benefit professionals; Origin delivers the transparency, visibility, and agility global benefits leaders have long needed. Powered by Cuido™, the world’s first Artificial Benefits Intelligence™, we put the power of AI in your hands, helping you to make smarter, faster and more meaningful decisions.

    Origin helps you see the full picture - turning unstructured, multi-language data into a unified, queryable and actionable source of truth. So you can control costs, stay compliant, and plan with confidence, transforming benefits into the agile, insight-driven function it deserves to be.

    At the heart of Origin, is Cuido™

    Origin's global benefits brain is Cuido. Spanish for 'I take care’, Cuido is the world's first Artificial Benefits Intelligence, purpose-built to tackle the challenges global benefits management presents. Ever-evolving, Cuido ingests, translates, and organizes decentralized data from across your ecosystem in any language; from policies, contracts, commissions, vendor information, and more, into a single, authoritative source - with the ability to query anything from anywhere with our Ask Cuido functionality.

    More than a platform, Origin is a catalyst for change. From cost savings to compliance, Origin transforms reactive benefits work into proactive planning, helping teams focus on what matters: delivering real impact for people. 
    Origin has already demonstrated its value to people. We have quite a large operation in Singapore, and by using Origin we've already identified around £150-200,000 worth of savings.

    Global Benefits Lead
    We get a lot of questions, last minute - urgent questions about how we operate in different countries. We don't have that global view, so really looking forward to having that!
    Carolina Vertel
    Benefits Leader US and LATAM
    I think there's so many opportunities with Origin to revolutionize the way benefits teams work and support shared services organizations. One of the big challenges we get is managing time off and leave programs globally. We have over 520 policies around the world which are of course, in many cases, driven by legislation. And when legislation changes, it then means you have to go and update the policy, which then results in configuration changes, etc. Having all of these policies in one place and being able to quickly translate into English so we can all read them and understand what the change and impact is... this is going to be a really new innovative platform to help us get those answers much faster.
    Angela Sim
    Senior Director of Global Benefits

    Origin's already helping us to pull information together so that we can understand where we have gaps, where we have overlap in programs, where we may be spending too much, and it's helping us to understand the opportunities that we should prioritize. The entire team is very excited that we are going to be empowered to shift from being reactive and spending our time pulling information together to being proactive and more strategic to help evolve what we offer to our employees.

    Frank Castrofilippo
    Executive Director of Total Rewards
    It's been so wonderful to find a family of like-minded benefit professionals. The brainstorming the challenging each other is what I'll take away from this. It's helping me already to think broadly.
    I'm really excited to work with the Origin team and be at the forefront of challenging the employee benefits world, disrupting the age old industry and working with a new start-up organization that can make decisions and changes quickly.
    All of the discussions have really been very thought provoking. Everybody is fully engaged, excited and really thrilled to be part of something.
    A real standout moment for me, seeing actually how much the Origin team care about making a difference.
