The platform

One workspace. Every step of ACA enrollment.

Legacy quoting tools stop at "here's a plan list." AIQ owns the entire lifecycle — from the first call to the fourth-year renewal.

AI-guided quoting

Intake, subsidy calc, and plan match in under a minute. The AI narrows 200+ plans to the three that actually fit the household.

Side-by-side compare

Networks, drug tiers, deductibles, and out-of-pocket max — normalized across carriers so consumers can decide in one screen.

Compliant e-enrollment

CMS-registered EDE with automatic RIDP, attestations, and doc uploads. Zero handoffs to Healthcare.gov.

Book-of-business CRM

Household timeline, renewal alerts, SEP triggers, and commission tracking — replacing the spreadsheet you promised to retire.

Analytics that matter

Producer scorecards, funnel drop-off, carrier mix, and retention curves. Not vanity charts.

Native dialer + SMS

Click-to-call, recorded consent, and 2-way SMS with disclosures baked in. No Twilio duct tape.

Who we serve

Three buyers. One infrastructure layer.

TPAs, carriers, and plan sponsors each feel ICHRA complexity differently. AIQ Health Connect solves the same data problem for all three — here's how each buyer sees it.

TPAs & benefits administrators

The Operations Owner

COO · VP Operations · Director of Benefits Administration

Administers ICHRA and group business for hundreds of employers on thin margins. Growth is capped by headcount, not demand — every new employer adds manual eligibility, enrollment, and reconciliation work.

Goals

  • Scale member count without scaling the service team
  • One integration that reaches every carrier and marketplace
  • Clean, auditable enrollment and reconciliation data

Pain today

  • Carrier-by-carrier files, portals, and spreadsheets
  • Manual enrollment QA and 834 error chasing
  • Commission-share pricing that punishes volume

What AIQ delivers

  • Single AIQ Connect API for quoting, enrollment, and status
  • Transparent PMPM + transaction pricing — 0% commission share
  • Live in under 14 days with white-glove migration

Buying trigger

Winning a large ICHRA employer that the current stack can't absorb.

"Migration will break our open-enrollment calendar."

Parallel-run migration with data validation before cutover, plus zero switching cost — we run alongside your current stack until the numbers match.

Success metric: Cost per member per month · admin hours per group

Insurance carriers

The Distribution Leader

VP Individual/ICHRA Distribution · Head of Digital · Chief Compliance-adjacent stakeholders

Owns individual-market growth targets and needs distribution reach across dozens of ICHRA platforms, brokers, and TPAs — without building a bespoke integration for each one.

Goals

  • Reach every ICHRA platform and broker through one pipe
  • Faster, cleaner enrollments with fewer downstream defects
  • Real-time visibility into quote-to-bind conversion

Pain today

  • Dozens of partner integrations, each with its own file spec
  • Bad-data enrollments creating billing and member-service costs
  • No shared telemetry across distribution partners

What AIQ delivers

  • One certified integration that fans out to the full partner network
  • Validated, normalized enrollment payloads with p95 latency under 500ms
  • SOC 2 and HIPAA controls with CMS-registered EDE lineage

Buying trigger

An ICHRA growth mandate with a launch date and no engineering capacity.

"Security and compliance review will take two quarters."

Pre-packaged security review kit — SOC 2 report, HIPAA BAA, data-flow diagrams, and pen-test summary — supplied on day one of diligence.

Success metric: Enrollments per partner · integration time-to-market

Employer groups & associations

The Plan Sponsor

CFO · Head of HR/Total Rewards · Association Executive Director

Wants predictable healthcare spend and a benefit employees or members actually understand. Evaluates ICHRA as a way to cap cost while widening plan choice — but fears a confusing enrollment experience.

Goals

  • Predictable, defensible healthcare budget
  • Real plan choice for a distributed or hourly workforce
  • Low-lift enrollment that HR doesn't have to babysit

Pain today

  • Double-digit renewal increases on group plans
  • Employees overwhelmed by plan options and subsidy rules
  • Compliance anxiety around ICHRA affordability and notices

What AIQ delivers

  • Guided, AI-assisted shopping that narrows 200+ plans to three
  • Class-based ICHRA design with affordability checks built in
  • Live support and reporting HR can hand straight to finance

Buying trigger

A renewal quote that breaks the benefits budget.

"Our employees will be lost buying their own plan."

Every member gets guided compare, subsidy math, and licensed human help — measured by completion rate, not clicks.

Success metric: Enrollment completion rate · benefit spend per employee

How it works

Three screens replace a nine-tab workflow.

Legacy tools stitch together a quoter, a CRM, a dialer, and Healthcare.gov. AIQ collapses all of it into one connected surface — so your agents stop context-switching and start closing.

  1. 01
    Consumer or agent starts intake

    One smart form captures household, income, providers, and Rx. Skip logic hides what doesn't apply.

  2. 02
    AIQ narrows 200+ plans to 3

    Subsidy math, network match, and Rx coverage run in the background. The three best-fit plans surface with reasons.

  3. 03
    Enroll & retain, automatically

    E-sign, EDE submission, and renewal workflows run on rails. Your book doesn't churn on Nov 1.

Head to head

AIQ vs the legacy stack.

Legacy platforms bundle their fees into your commission split, then layer on setup, support, and per-enrollment charges. AIQ replaces all of it with transparent PMPM + transaction pricing — and you keep 100% of every carrier commission.

Agencies that switched aren't going back.

"We moved 12,000 households off HealthSherpa in nine days. AIQ's team handled the migration, our producers didn't miss a single renewal, and close rate jumped 34% in the first OEP."
Marisol Rivera
COO, Meridian Health Advisors
"The AI plan-match is the real deal. Our newest agents are closing at rates our veterans took two years to reach. It's like having a top-1% producer whispering in every rep's ear."
David Chen
Founder, Solstice Health
"The PMPM pricing plus their support team changed our P&L overnight. We were paying hidden fees and commission splits with our old platform. AIQ's total cost is materially lower, and their team actually answers the phone."
Tanya Okafor
President, Palmetto Group

Security & compliance

Built for the toughest privacy officer in the room.

Health data isn't just another dataset. AIQ's platform is architected around HIPAA, CMS EDE, and enterprise SSO from day one — not bolted on.

SOC 2 Type II

Independently audited controls across security, availability, and confidentiality.

HIPAA aligned

PHI is encrypted, access-logged, and BAA-covered for every customer.

AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3

Every byte encrypted end-to-end. Keys managed in AWS KMS, rotated automatically.

SSO + SCIM

Okta, Google, Azure AD. Provision and de-provision agents in real time.

US-only data residency

All PHI processed and stored in AWS us-east-1 and us-west-2. Never leaves the country.

CMS-registered EDE

Direct connection to the Marketplace API — no consumer redirects to Healthcare.gov.

Pricing

PMPM + transaction pricing. No commission share.

You keep 100% of carrier commissions, overrides, and bonuses. AIQ charges a simple per-member-per-month fee plus a small transaction fee — significantly lower total cost than HealthSherpa and HealthPlan.com.
