Israeli healthtech company Healthee has reached a major milestone, with over one million American households now using its AI-powered platform to manage and better understand their health insurance benefits. The significant growth in user adoption follows a strategic partnership with Vensure Employer Solutions, the largest professional employer organization (PEO) in the United States, which provides HR and insurance services to tens of thousands of small and mid-sized businesses across the country.

Founded in 2021 by Guy Benjamin (CEO), Ben Nagar (COO), and Elad Ofir (Chief Data and Medical Officer), Healthee was established to simplify one of the most notoriously complex systems in the U.S. health insurance. While more than 160 million Americans receive health insurance through their employers, a large portion of them remain confused about their actual coverage and how to make the most of it. Healthee’s platform addresses this challenge by using advanced artificial intelligence to provide employees with real-time, personalized insights into their healthcare plans, guide them in navigating coverage options, and even offer access to telemedicine services.

CEO Guy Benjamin emphasized the importance of this milestone, saying that the company's growth reflects an urgent demand for clarity and accessibility in healthcare. "Reaching one million households is proof that our solution addresses a real need," Benjamin said. "We enable American workers to receive more accessible and humane healthcare services."

Healthee has gained strong backing from Group 11, a venture capital firm that has supported the company since its early stages. Group 11’s founder and managing partner Dovi Frances praised the company's momentum, noting that the rapid expansion of its user base is a testament to Israeli innovation’s ability to solve critical real-world challenges. "One million households is not just a number, it's evidence that Israeli innovation can solve real problems even in the world's largest market," he said. With over 15,000 organizations already integrating Healthee’s platform, Frances believes the company is only beginning to tap into its full potential. "There's no reason why Healthee shouldn't become the world's largest healthcare platform."

As Healthee continues to grow, its blend of technology and user-centered design is helping transform how American employees engage with their healthcare. The company’s AI-driven platform is positioning itself as a powerful force in reshaping the employer-based health insurance landscape in the United States one that empowers users, streamlines access to services, and reduces friction in an often overwhelming system.
