Benefits are better together.
Benefits should not be a PDF you read alone once a year. Tobie gives your people a shared, on-brand space to see what matters, ask questions, and learn together, with HR in full oversight of every word.
Most benefits go quiet the day after enrollment.
Employees get a flood of materials in one window, then silence. The questions do not stop, but the place to ask them disappears.
People navigate alone
A benefits PDF is a solo task. There is no one to ask, no sense of what colleagues chose, so most people guess and move on.
Engagement is one spike a year
Communication peaks for a few weeks at open enrollment, then drops to nothing, right when life events and real questions actually happen.
Questions go unasked
When asking feels like a hassle, people stay confused rather than reach out. Benefits you paid for quietly go unused.
Where benefits become a shared experience.
Not another inbox. A calm, on-brand space your people can actually return to, built into the benefits experience they already use.

What people ask.
What is the Tobie employee community?
It is the social layer of the benefits experience: a shared, on-brand space where your people see benefits updates, ask questions, and learn alongside their colleagues, instead of navigating a dense PDF alone. It keeps benefits present year-round, not just during the enrollment window.
Is the community governed and moderated by HR?
Yes. The community sits inside Tobie’s governed platform. It runs on your brand, your team has oversight of what is posted, and answers stay grounded in your approved benefits content. The goal is a space that is helpful and safe, never a free-for-all.
How is this different from the benefits microsite?
The microsite is where your benefits live as content. The community is where they live as a conversation: announcements, timely reminders, and a place to ask and learn together. They work as one experience, so an employee can read, watch, ask, and stay in the loop in the same place.
Are the answers in the community accurate?
Benefits answers stay source-grounded. When an employee asks a benefits question, Tobie answers only from the documents your team has approved, with citations, so the community never becomes a place where misinformation spreads.
Does the community work year-round, not just at open enrollment?
That is the point. Most benefits communication spikes for a few weeks and then goes quiet. A living community keeps employees engaged with new-hire moments, qualifying life events, wellness pushes, and deadline reminders across the whole year.
Is employee data kept private?
Privacy and trust come first. Tobie runs on SOC 2-certified infrastructure with encryption in transit and at rest, tenant isolation, and role-based access. Talk to us about exactly how the community handles your specific privacy requirements.
