Overview
Human Interest is a San Francisco-based provider of 401(k) and 403(b) retirement plans built for small and mid-sized businesses, founded in 2015 as Captain401 by Roger Lee and Paul Sawaya before rebranding to Human Interest in 2018. The company automates plan setup, payroll integration, compliance testing, and recordkeeping so employers without in-house benefits staff can offer a workplace retirement plan.
As of 2026 Human Interest serves nearly 50,000 businesses and more than two million eligible employees, and the company says it now launches roughly one in four new 401(k) plans added in the United States each year, according to PLANSPONSOR plan-addition data cited in its own press materials.
Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and involve risk of complete loss of principal. You should be prepared to hold private securities for an extended period; there is no assurance of a secondary market, an IPO, or other liquidity event. You are fully responsible for conducting your own due diligence. Pricing is indicative — nothing here is an offer of securities.
