Yes, the group insurance through a payroll processor is a great solution. That's what we do now.
The caveat is that it only works if you're collecting a paycheck, but not if you're bootstrapping from savings.

Yep, you nailed it. Had it not been for ACA, making the career leap to co-founder would have been incredibly difficult. Two years later, it's a honor to be able to provide insurance to our employees.

My actual suggestion was to hop on with the product team/co-founder. This article is a narrative about something we found pretty interesting during product development.
Similarly, the offer here is to take a deeper look at what we're building and a (quite genuine) offer to incorporate any suggestions you might have into our roadmap.
