TriNet to acquire Cocoon to expand AI-enabled leave management for SMBs

TriNet, a provider of human resources solutions for small and medium-sized businesses, has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Cocoon, a leave management technology platform. Financial terms were not disclosed, and the deal is not expected to materially impact TriNet's 2026 financial guidance. The acquisition will strengthen TriNet's leave of absence offering with Cocoon's compliance-driven product featuring automated workflows, AI-enabled capabilities and integrated claims filing with state and disability carriers. Cocoon, founded in 2020 by former Stripe and Square leaders, is backed by Index Ventures and First Round Capital. Upon completion, Cocoon will become a wholly owned subsidiary of TriNet. The transaction is expected to close this month, subject to customary closing conditions including regulatory approvals.
