AI agent for benefits administrators
New Hire Enrollment Window Agent
Make sure every new hire makes an election, or waives, inside the window.
What it does
New hires have a short window to choose benefits, and those who miss it can wait a full year. This agent finds new hires from the HR feed and sets the deadline from the hire date. It sends a welcome message with the steps, then reminders at set points. It checks elections as they are made. If a new hire has no election by the deadline, it sends reminders, tells the manager and lists the person for the administrator. The administrator approves the messages and any exception. Edge case: the hire date changes, so the agent resets the deadline and tells the employee.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides
The window is the plan's number of days from hire. Reminders go at fixed points and the manager is told at the last stage.
- Send reminders at 7, 3 and 1 days before
- Tell the manager at 3 days
- List missing elections after the deadline
- Reset the deadline if the hire date changes
