What MyBenefits does

MyBenefits is a Romanian flexible employee benefits management platform headquartered in Bucharest, founded in 2016 by Andrei Dumitrel (CEO) and Cristian Teodorescu, with 100% Romanian capital. The company operates a cloud-based platform that enables employers to allocate benefit budgets to employees, who self-select from a catalog of more than 20,000 to 28,000 products and services spanning healthcare, wellness, pensions, retail, fitness, and flexible workspace. The platform integrates multiple benefit providers into a unified employer-branded interface (delivered via company subdomain) and includes BenAI, an AI-powered assistant launched in July 2023 that uses Microsoft Azure OpenAI's GPT-4 to answer employee questions on tax legislation, benefit optimization, and platform usage, reducing average user time on platform to roughly 21 minutes per month. Technology is developed by iTrade Integrated Systems, a sister Romanian firm with nearly a decade of operating history.

The business runs a B2B enterprise SaaS model, charging client companies platform licensing/usage fees via a quote-based, demo-driven sales motion. Customers are mid-to-large enterprises, with named clients including RebelDot, eSolutions, ELO Digital, Marelli, and ESD DIGITIZATION. Distribution is augmented by a flagship September 2022 partnership with Sodexo Benefits & Rewards Services, the market leader in Romanian benefits, giving MyBenefits structural access to Sodexo's 30,000+ company client base and 2 million employees; Sodexo handles benefit provision while MyBenefits supplies the technology layer. The company serves two segments: HR departments running employee motivation and retention programs (primary), and sales/channel partner incentivization programs (secondary). The firm remains private, with 11–50 employees, no disclosed external funding, and operations confined to Romania.

• Benefex: UK-based flexible benefits and total reward platform serving mid-market and enterprise employers. Comparable in product philosophy (employee choice, employer branding, integrated providers) and represents the type of regional scale MyBenefits may pursue outside Romania.
