OneDigital Expands Avante Partnership to the East Region
OneDigital Brings Avante Partnership to the East Region, Accelerating Expansion Beyond the West
HARTFORD, CT – DECEMBER 1ST, 2025 – OneDigital, a leading insurance brokerage, financial services, and HR consulting firm, has expanded their partnership with Avante, an AI solution that helps employers optimize and manage benefits for their employees. The growing relationship, which began with OneDigital’s West Region, has now expanded to include the East Region. Employers, existing and new to OneDigital across eighteen states, can now access exclusive pricing, delivering savings of up to 80% when implementing Carly.
As a digital gateway for human resource teams, Carly provides round-the-clock support and helps resolve over 70% of benefits-related questions with reliable, accurate answers. By handling routine inquiries, Carly enables HR teams to dedicate more time to strategic initiatives while employees enjoy a smooth and efficient benefits experience.
By integrating this technology into the client experience, OneDigital is enabling faster, smarter support for employees, increasing operational efficiency for HR teams, and driving more strategic, data-informed outcomes across the entire employee benefits value chain.
“Expanding our partnership with Avante into the significant footprint of the East Region underscores our commitment to delivering innovative, data-driven solutions that create measurable value for our clients.” said Emily Bailey, Regional President, East. “OneDigital’s expansion brings operational efficiency to a new level, allowing our clients to redirect resources towards growth and transformation while still providing timely, accurate support to their employees.”
Since early 2025, OneDigital has utilized Carly internally to streamline HR operations with impressive results. Within six months, Carly instantly resolved 4,275 inquiries that would have otherwise required HR intervention and drafted 1,690 email responses for the benefits team. This automation saved approximately three months of work, equivalent to 565 hours, enabling the OneDigital team to concentrate on more complex cases and strategic initiatives.
“AI is more than just a tool. It’s a force multiplier reshaping the way we work. With Avante, our teams now have the superpowers to focus on the meaningful, high-impact work that brought us to HR in the first place. The future is bright, and AI is lighting the way.” - Elizabeth Chrane, Chief People Officer.
"Our partnership with OneDigital is about more than technology; it's about delivering real results," said Rohan D'Souza, CEO and Co-Founder of Avante. "We've seen their West Coast clients transform how they support employees during benefits decisions — employees engaging more deeply with their options, HR teams gaining bandwidth to be more strategic, and ultimately people making smarter choices that drive better health and financial outcomes. As OneDigital expands this capability to the East region, we're excited to help more of their clients deliver that same experience."
By leveraging AI-powered solutions within our client experience, OneDigital reaffirms its commitment to innovation and partnership. This technology empowers us to deliver greater efficiency, foster deeper connections, and achieve lasting impact for the people and organizations we serve.
