Saving enough money for retirement feels out of reach for many U.S. workers—and not enough employers are helping them close the gap. According to AARP, in 2022 there were 57 million people between the ages of 18 and 65 in the U.S. working for private-sector employers that don’t offer a traditional pension or a retirement savings plan. 
 
Founded in 2015, Human Interest is trying to address this need. As the fastest-growing 401(k) provider in the U.S—it has tripled its number of customers in less than two years—the company is focused on making it easier for savers and their employers to provide retirement plans. Its platforms eliminate transaction fees, provide cash-back incentives for savers who earn below the national median wage, and make it easy for small businesses to set up and manage retirement plans. Human Interest says it has now given more than half a million people access to a savings plan. The company also offers solo 401(k) plans for self-employed professionals.

BlackRock led the company’s most recent funding round in January 2023; to date, Human Interest has raised $500 million from investors over eight rounds. As of November 2023, the company is valued at more than $1 billion.
