Nayya Launches "Leave": The First AI-Powered Platform Connecting Absence Planning with the Full Spectrum of Employee Needs

• Leave can deliver a fully connected leave of absence experience from planning through return to work, personalized to each employee's situation
• Built on Nayya's core AI-powered platform, Leave bridges benefits selection, claims filing, and communication

NEW YORK, April 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nayya, the leading benefits experience platform, today announced the launch of Nayya Leave, a modern solution designed to simplify the emotionally charged experience surrounding a leave of absence. Whether for parental leave, caregiving, or serious health conditions, Leave empowers employees with a clear, guided journey and gives employers the tools to manage the complexity at scale. The solution can be fully integrated into Nayya's broader benefits ecosystem.

For many employees, navigating a leave of absence means more than just stepping away from work—it means doing so during some of life's most pivotal and trying periods. Whether recovering from an illness, caring for a loved one, or preparing to welcome a child, the process often requires stitching together disjointed information from HR systems, insurance carriers, and government policies, hoping nothing falls through the cracks. The result is confusion around eligibility, delays in paperwork, and missed benefits. Nayya Leave replaces this complexity with a personalized, digital experience that adapts in real-time to each employee's unique situation, benefits, and location—providing structure and guidance in real time.

Unmatched in the market, Leave can be fully integrated with Nayya's comprehensive suite of AI-powered benefits resources, including Choose, Use, and Claims, connecting plan selection, claims filing, and communication into one seamless experience. Employees receive a personalized leave plan with a clear calendar of job-protected and paid time off, contextualized to-do lists, and proactive nudges delivered by email and SMS, even while they are away from their work systems. From mapping FMLA and state laws to digitizing claim forms and syncing with HRIS data, Leave acts as a continuous and intelligent companion throughout the entire leave journey with the following features:

• Personalized support: Employees receive tailored insights based on their unique circumstances and the latest policy changes, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of leave policies across various regulations and employer guidelines.
• Timeline visualization: A clear, intuitive roadmap outlines job coverage, and wage replacement details.
• Seamless benefits selection with Choose: Employees can benefit from Leave's integration with Choose, which provides personalized benefits recommendations. After a qualifying life event, employees can be prompted to update their coverage in Choose.
• Integrated claims management with Claims: By mapping medical claims data to supplemental health policies, Claims can identify and process claims on the employee's behalf throughout their leave of absence.
• Dynamic to-do lists: Actionable, step-by-step checklists guide employees through key milestones, providing an extensive framework that ensures the accurate management of all critical dates.

"Leave is personal for me. I'm preparing to step away for the birth of my daughter, and I'll be using our product to help guide us during that time," said Sina Chehrazi, co-founder and CEO of Nayya. "This moment, as your family grows and your full attention and presence are needed, shouldn't be clouded by paperwork, uncertainty, or anxiety. With Leave, we've created something I trust enough to use for my own family."

The launch follows Nayya's 2025 Benefits Value Gap report, which revealed that employers invest thousands of dollars on each employee's benefits package, including offerings that help support employees during high-stakes life events like taking a leave of absence. Leave was built to close this gap, combining personalization and automation to make leave not just manageable, but meaningful for both employees and employers.
