Close the
benefits gap.

Scale headcount without raising burn.

Most scaling teams have medical. Almost none close the cash gap when an engineer hits a $3–8k out-of-pocket event. That is when offer-acceptance slips and regrettable attrition starts.

Chubb Combined pays cash to the employee — not the hospital.

Zero employer cost.Voluntary payroll deduction. Portable if they leave. No required contribution to the P&L.

How much is it worth to your team?


Three companies. Three different pains.

Same product family. Different pressure. Start with the one that matches your stage.

01

Seed team

~10–25 people · pre-A / Seed

You lose offers to companies that look safer, even when your equity is better. A candidate is choosing between your round and a company with a real benefits story. Your HDHP is fine on paper. It does not answer “what if I land in the ER next quarter.” You cannot add a medical rebuild to burn.

Need: Accident + hospital indemnity. Simple enrollment. One sentence People can put in the offer letter.

02

Growth team

~40–70 people · Series A–B

Mid-level ICs leave after one expensive health year — and replacement cost shows up on the P&L. Attrition is no longer a vibe. It is 50–150% of salary every time a senior engineer walks. High-deductible plans are doing what they were designed to do for the company. They are not doing enough for the person who just paid $6,000 out of pocket.

Need: Accident, hospital indemnity, and critical illness as a voluntary stack. A CFO-ready story: $0 required OpEx versus the cost of two regrettable exits.

03

Established product company

~100+ people · growth / public-path

You are hiring senior ICs against Big Tech total rewards and your benefits look thin in the last round. Comp is close. Equity is complicated. The offer loses on “what happens if something happens.” People and Finance will not open a new cost center for a nice-to-have. They will open a conversation that adds protection without adding burn.

Need: Full Chubb Combined stack — accident, hospital, critical illness, disability, portable life — plus worksite education and a short exec summary. Not a 40-page broker deck.
