Building on a seven-year partnership, Voya will leverage UnqorkAI to accelerate innovation and enhance customer experiences

NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Unqork, an AI-first enterprise development company, today announced that Voya Financial, Inc. (NYSE: VOYA)—a leading retirement, employee benefits, and investment management company supporting more than 18 million customer relationships—selected UnqorkAI to support targeted AI-enabled retirement experiences and workflow initiatives. The expanded relationship reflects Voya's broader approach to working with technology partners to apply AI where it can help improve customer experiences, streamline operations and deliver meaningful business value.

Building on its existing partnership, Voya will leverage UnqorkAI to help customers move more seamlessly from guidance to action, augment enterprise workflows and deliver more connected client experiences.

UnqorkAI is Unqork's new AI-native platform designed to empower enterprises in highly regulated industries to build and run AI-generated applications with greater speed, predictability, and governance at a fraction of current enterprise total cost of ownership (TCO).

An Unqork customer since 2019, Voya successfully leveraged Unqork's platform to build and manage mission-critical Sponsor Onboarding and Producer Onboarding applications, replacing legacy complexity with streamlined operational workflows.

"At Voya, we start with the business problem and apply AI where it can create meaningful value for our customers and clients," said Rajat Kalia, chief technology officer, workplace solutions, Voya Financial. "As an early adopter of UnqorkAI, we see an opportunity to enhance onboarding workflows and experiences while maintaining strict security, cost controls, enterprise governance and responsible AI practices. Expanding our relationship with Unqork allows us to put safe, impactful AI capabilities into practice that allow customers to make informed and timely decisions." Unqork's mission has always been to help customers reliably and securely manage complexity while controlling the costs of building and operating resilient enterprise systems. UnqorkAI continues that mission into the AI era, enabling organizations to build and deploy enterprise-grade applications faster, while reducing ongoing application maintenance overhead.

"Voya is a pioneer in delivering best-in-class retirement experiences, while proving that speed and governance can co-exist when you eliminate technical debt at the root," said Gary Hoberman, CEO and Founder of Unqork. "Voya is demonstrating how financial institutions can innovate with AI while reducing their maintenance burdens, code surface area, and enterprise risk. We are thrilled to partner with Voya on this next chapter of AI-driven innovation."
