Why per hire, not per seat

Frontline has high headcount and high turnover. The work the platform actually does — running a hire through preboarding and onboarding — happens once per new hire, not once per shift worker on the floor. So the bill should track that.

Per-seat tools

A 100-person frontline team at $3–5 per seat/month costs $300–500/month— before anyone even starts an onboarding journey.

Per-hire (us)

$99/mo Starter ≈ $3.96/hire at the cap. $799/mo Scale ≈ $1.60/hire. Standing headcount on the floor is irrelevant to the bill.

Both models are valid in software pricing. Per-hire just fits frontline economics better than per-seat.

Plans cancel at the end of the billing month, no questions asked. Annual prepay can be downgraded at renewal.

Put a number on it

What weak onboarding is quietly costing you

Ghosted offers, first-90-day quits, and slow ramp do not show up on one invoice — so they stay invisible. Move the slider to see the yearly bill.

Frontline hires per month

Job ads, recruiter & manager hours, screening, offer admin — the spend to source one hire. Not training.

Gross weekly wage you pay one frontline worker (e.g. $15/hr × 40h). Drives the slow-ramp cost.

Empty boxes use conservative frontline defaults ($2,000 to fill a role, $600/week pay). Type your own for a number that is actually yours.

How this is calculated

Everything below runs on annual hires — your monthly figure × 12 = 360/year. The plan tier is set by the monthly number (30/mo → Growth), exactly like billing. No double-counting: the two money inputs cover different things, explained next.

The two numbers you type

Cost to fill one role ($2,000). What it costs to find one person: job-board spend, the hours a recruiter and a manager put into sourcing and screening, and offer paperwork. It does notinclude training — that lives in the ramp line below, so nothing is counted twice. We default to a deliberately low frontline figure; SHRM’s all-roles average is roughly double, but that blends in salaried roles.

Weekly pay ($600). The gross wage you hand one frontline worker each week (about $15/hour over a 40-hour week). It is the price tag on a week of their time — used only to value the weeks lost to slow ramp.

The three losses

No-shows before day 1 = annual hires × 10% × cost to fill a role. In peak-season frontline hiring, no-show rates can run much higher; we use a conservative 10% (about 1 in 10). Each one means you pay to source the role a second time.

First-90-day churn = annual hires × 20% × cost to fill a role. Frontline early turnover is high and onboarding is its biggest lever (Brandon Hall Group, SHRM); we only count the slice a structured journey realistically prevents.

Slow ramp = the hires who actually start (annual hires − 10% no-shows) × 2 extra weeks × weekly pay × 50%. Without a structured journey a hire takes ~2 extra weeks to run their station alone; over those weeks you pay full wage for roughly half the output, so half the wage is money for work you did not get.

Recoverable range. Only 2550% of the total — the part a structured journey can realistically claw back, and only if you act on it. A tool nobody opens recovers nothing. This is the honest number to plan against, not the headline.

On the multiple. At 30 hires a month and these inputs, the recoverable range works out to 43×–86× the $2,388 Growth plan. We deliberately cap the headline at “10×+” and lead with the recoverable amount instead — a believable claim matters more than a big one.

All figures are in US dollars. This is an estimate to frame the conversation, not a quote — your own numbers will differ, which is exactly why both boxes are editable.

Pricing — common questions

If your question is not here, talk to the team.

    • Why are plans priced by hires/month, not seats?

      Because what you actually buy is hire-journey throughput, not LMS seats. A site with 5 active managers running 200 new hires through the journey is a different cost shape than a site with 50 managers running 10 hires. We price for the work that gets done.

    • Do you offer discounts for non-profits or social ventures?

      Yes. Talk to the team and tell us about your operation — we work it out case by case.

    • Is SSO really on the Starter plan?

      Yes — full SSO (Google, Microsoft 365, and SAML 2.0 / OIDC for any IdP including Okta, Azure AD, JumpCloud, Auth0) ships on Starter, Growth and Scale alike. We do not paywall identity. The whole reason a security-conscious operator picks a tier is the hires-per-month cap that fits them, nothing else.

    • What if I exceed my plan in a busy month?

      We do not auto-bill overages or block your hires. We surface the overage on the dashboard and reach out — usually it is one busy season, not a tier change.

    • How does the free trial work?

      Pick any plan, try it for 14 days, no card required. You get full feature access for that tier — not a stripped-down preview. At the end of the trial, you pick a plan or your data is deleted within 30 days.

    • Why are Starter, Growth and Scale identical except for the cap?

      Because the only thing that costs us real money per case is processing a hire — compute, storage, support per onboarding journey. Hiding SSO or analytics behind a higher tier would just punish a small operator for being early. The hires-per-month cap is the upsell mechanism: when you outgrow 25/mo you have to move to $249. Nothing artificial added on top.

    • Is there a setup fee?

      No. The first journey is something you can build during the trial — using materials you already have.

    • Why is there no permanent free tier?

      Because the work the platform does — preboarding journeys, the kanban + checklists, tests and homework review, hosting per-language journeys side by side — has a real cost per hire processed. A standing free tier would either be too thin to be useful or would cannibalize the Starter plan and pull in low-fit signups. The 14-day trial is genuinely free and gives you the full product.

    • Can I switch plans later?

      Yes. Upgrade or downgrade at any time. Annual prepay can be downgraded to a lower tier at renewal.
