Customer stories
AWM used Ignition to negotiate their 2026 insurance renewal, lowering costs by 22% compared to their initial increase.
Light Labs turned a 21% increase into an 8% decrease, $113,115 in savings, and better coverage across the board.
Ignition consolidated everything into Gusto, set it up before open enrollment, and now runs the day-to-day benefits admin so Mango's team doesn't have to.
