A closer look at Origin’s approach to AI 

Powerful, responsible, and powering HR Transformation

Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a buzzword in HR. For global benefits teams, it has become an essential tool for creating visibility, improving governance, and managing programs more effectively.

At Origin, we are often asked a simple question: “What kind of AI is this?”

The answer matters because not all AI is created equal. Some systems are experimental; others are opaque or high risk. Origin was built differently. Our platform is designed to give HR leaders confidence and control, with AI capabilities that are powerful and responsible. Here is what sets Origin apart.

An AI system designed for clarity and insight

The Origin platform integrates multiple AI technologies to process and structure complex benefits data.

Together, these tools allow Origin to ingest, process, and surface insights from benefits documentation at scale. This makes Origin an AI-powered knowledge integration and analytics system that goes far beyond traditional HR platforms.

Composite and agentic AI: what this means for employers

Origin can be classified as a composite agentic AI system.

• Composite AI means our platform brings together multiple AI technologies into one unified system.
• Agentic AI refers to the way Origin actively processes information, structures it, and interacts with users through conversational agents like Ask Cuido.

For HR leaders, this translates to a smarter, more proactive way of managing global benefits data. It enables teams to make informed decisions faster while reducing the administrative burden.

A limited risk system under the EU AI Act

We know that governance and compliance are top of mind for global organizations. That is why Origin was built to meet the highest standards of privacy and security.

Under the EU AI Act, Origin falls within the “limited risk” category because:

• It does not process sensitive or personally identifiable information (PII).
• It operates with a zero-retention policy, meaning no client data is stored or used to train models.
• Human experts oversee all AI outputs to ensure accuracy and alignment.

This classification means organizations can confidently adopt Origin’s AI without taking on unnecessary compliance risks.

Built on responsible AI principles

From day one, Origin has been committed to ethical and transparent AI use. Our governance practices include:

• Data privacy by design, aligned with GDPR, SOC 2, and the EU AI Act.
• Strict tenant isolation and encryption to protect client information.
• Human oversight and auditing of AI outputs to ensure accountability.
• Mitigations against common AI risks, such as prompt injection or insecure outputs.

For employers, this means Origin’s AI is not just effective, it’s trustworthy.

The future of benefits management starts here

AI is transforming how global benefits are managed. At Origin, we believe the best AI systems are those that combine innovation with integrity.

By integrating advanced AI technologies in a secure and responsible way, Origin empowers HR and benefits leaders to simplify complexity, reduce risk, and deliver a better experience for employees worldwide.
