The limitations around the flow of data in our industry are felt by everyone. I’ve spent 5+ years vetting new technologies in this space, and this is one of the most exciting periods to be focused on connectivity. The technology is there. The business case is there. And now, Noyo has built a proven API solution with a reputable set of customers; it’s just the beginning.","nodeType":"text"}],"nodeType":"paragraph"},{"data":{},"content":[{"data":{},"marks":[],"value":"I’m most excited about the new businesses that can be built on top of Noyo that didn’t exist yesterday. Imagine what’s possible when there is no friction between the supply and the demand.

Expectations for benefits offerings are high, but manual operations, hard-to-diagnose errors, and expensive disruptions to the customer experience are holding carriers, platforms, and brokers back.

With Noyo’s APIs under the hood, benefits administration tools can become even faster and more powerful.

And then on the carrier side of the market, we want every carrier to be able to offer the Noyo Sync experience, no matter the systems in place today.

Seamless data exchange across every step of benefits administration is critical, but what’s more exciting is what comes next.","nodeType":"text"}],"nodeType":"paragraph"}],"nodeType":"document"}
