Frequently asked questions

Gus is your AI benefits assistant. Because it lives inside Gusto, it already knows the basics about your business. Ask Gus anything about benefits and you’ll receive instant, personalized responses. It compares plans and costs side by side, and recommends options that fit your team and budget—so choosing the right coverage feels clear instead of overwhelming. When you're ready, a licensed benefits advisor reviews your choices before you enroll.

The cost depends on the health plan you choose and how much of the cost you decide to cover as the employer. Because small group insurance rates are government-regulated, you'll pay the same through Gusto as you would with any other broker, with no additional platform fee for benefits administration. Our licensed advisors and Gus can give you a real estimate based on your company size and budget.
