Company Description

Cocoon is a leave management software that uses first-of-its-kind technology to take the work out of leave. We partner with employers like Carta, Notion, and Benchling to support their people through life’s most pivotal moments—from having a baby to caring for a loved one to focusing on personal health. The process of taking and managing leave is often confusing, arduous, and stressful for everyone involved. Cocoon automates the complexities of compliance, claims, and payroll so People teams can focus instead on caring for their people.
