Patrice Ayling
Founder, MySSAgent
"Most permanent financial decisions get a permanent amount of thinking. Social Security claiming should be one of them."
Background
Patrice Ayling is the founder of MySSAgent and the operator behind RECOGNIZE! Revenue Consulting LLC.
Before founding MySSAgent, Patrice spent a decade building revenue functions inside complex businesses — most notably as a revenue architect at GEON, where her work generated $4.1 million in attributable revenue with a 488% ROI. That experience taught her how to turn nuanced product capability into commercial outcomes: how to find the buyer, how to frame the offer, how to build the GTM motion that actually converts.
Building MySSAgent has also made Patrice a working AI practitioner. She ships the platform solo by orchestrating Claude Code, Cowork, Genspark, and a working MCP stack across HubSpot, Notion, Apollo, and Supabase — turning composable AI tools into a functioning operating system for a solo founder.
But the work that became MySSAgent started at home.
Patrice's mother, Jackie Payne, is a Registered Social Security Analyst®, a Registered Nurse, a Medicare broker, and an ACA enrollment specialist. For years, Patrice watched Jackie sit with clients — many of whom had already made claiming decisions — and walk them through what their optimal strategy would have been. The pattern was the same every time: people had lost five- and six-figure sums in lifetime benefits because no one had ever applied the actual SSA rules to their actual situation.
Jackie's RSSA-credentialed consultation works. But the operational reality is that there aren't enough credentialed Social Security specialists to serve every household approaching claiming age. 11,400 Americans turn 65 every day. 96% will claim at the wrong time.
So Patrice built MySSAgent.
MySSAgent is an AI-powered decision-making platform that applies all 2,728 SSA rules to an individual's specific situation in about five minutes. It's built to be the analytical engine that sits alongside Jackie's expertise — and alongside the work of every independent advisor and RIA who serves households navigating retirement.
The vision: precision claiming analysis in every retirement conversation. At home. In advisor offices. On both sides of the table.
