Overview

Cloud Advisors is a benefits technology platform for the Canadian employee benefits market, serving employers, benefits advisors, brokers, insurance carriers, and TPAs. The platform enables real-time comparison, benchmarking, and purchasing of group benefit plans, with a focus on the Group Benefits vertical.

The core product is a SaaS marketplace that combines proprietary AI-driven analytics with a curated catalog of benefit products from over 100 Canadian providers. Key capabilities include the Bar Score plan ranking system, interactive benchmarking against 200+ data points, and SmartQuote technology for real-time quote generation. An AI assistant (C.A.L.E.B.) surfaces plan gaps and recommendations for advisors and HR teams.

The platform reports 15,000+ employer accounts and coverage reaching over 1 million Canadian households. In 2022, Victory Square Technologies acquired a 15% equity stake, and the company relaunched with updated branding and expanded product features including Bar Score 2.0 and SmartQuote.
