Bottom line

Figures is a European compensation platform for mid-market and enterprise HR. Pricing is based on employee count and the modules you pick (salary bands, benchmarking, pay equity, planning). The vendor does not print a dollar or euro rate.

Stands out for: Benchmark data covers total rewards (base, variable, benefits) on 550,000 datapoints across 110-plus countries, with salary-band generation tied to that market set.

Watch out for: Pay Equity Expert, population filters, and several other capabilities are optional paid add-ons on the comparison table. A demo is required for a quote. SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 are stated.

Overview

Figures helps companies structure, report, and decide pay. Modules include salary bands, compensation policy, market benchmarking, planning, and pay-equity analysis. The Pay Equity Expert add-on is positioned to analyze, explain, and correct gaps in the platform rather than in a slide deck.

The pricing page states cost depends on headcount and selected modules, and sends you to a demo for a personalized quote. Integrations with 30-plus HRIS systems are listed. Several features on the comparison grid are optional paid add-ons. There is no public trial dollar or day count on that page.

Who it's for

Best for
