The global employee benefit broker market is undergoing transformative expansion, projected to surge from USD 48.24 billion in 2025 to surpass USD 78 billion by 2034, as highlighted by Precedence Research. This growth is fueled not only by rapid technological advancements, including AI, but also by an escalating demand for smarter, more adaptable employee benefit solutions that address diverse workforce needs.
Brokerages and ultimately, consultants are under unprecedented pressure to deliver greater value with agility and speed. Leveraging next-gen InsurTech has become a vital strategy, not only to meet accelerating market demands but also to scale operations rapidly and sustainably.
New Technology Is Reshaping Employee Benefits
Employee benefit brokers often spend their time on administrative backend and compliance tasks. After attending several InsurTech events this year, it has become clear that technology’s rapid advancement is poised to transform how brokers and consultants operate. We often probe Brokerages on fundamental questions that arise before adopting new solutions:
- What are the biggest bottlenecks or time drains in your current benefits administration and client support processes?
- Which manual or repetitive tasks consume the most broker or consultant time that could be automated?
- How well are you currently leveraging data analytics to understand client needs and uncover new revenue opportunities?
- What compliance risks or challenges do you face regularly that technology could help manage or reduce?
- How is your employee benefit support experience perceived by clients and plan participants? Where are the gaps?
- Which parts of your technology stack (CRM, admin platforms, communication tools) need integration or upgrading first?
- Will the company fall behind if you don’t adopt AI-driven platforms?
- How will you measure success and ROI from implementing new InsurTech solutions?
- Which InsurTech features align best with the types of benefits plans and client segments you serve?
These reflective questions have guided Eppione’s Co-Founders, David Kindlon, Neil Fallon, and Ernest Legrand, as they pioneered disruptive technology in employee benefits. This introspection led to the creation of Eppione’s BrokerAI and helps brokerages transform their mindset.
