## Overview

Nova Benefits is a group benefits and employee health insurance platform for employers across India. The company serves as a B2B intermediary helping businesses of all sizes provide group health insurance, wellness programs, and business insurance products to their employees through a tech-first approach that replaces manual HR workflows.

The platform offers an employer dashboard for managing team health insurance, automated member onboarding and offboarding, real-time claims tracking, and a suite of employee wellness add-ons including telehealth, mental wellness, dental, vision, and OPD coverage. A companion product, Reco by Nova, provides commercial insurance lines -- cyber, D&O, E&O, CGL, and Crime -- to companies through a separate broker platform. Both platforms are delivered as SaaS with mobile apps for iOS and Android.

Nova Benefits has covered over 200,000 employees across 500+ companies and processed more than 10,000 claims, holding a 4.7-star rating across 450+ Google Reviews. The company raised USD 11M across four rounds, including a USD 10M Series A led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Susquehanna International Group in September 2021.
