Where they pull apart

Aniday

Stands out: Headhunter marketplace plus EOR in one vendor for cross-border hiring without an entity.

Watch out: The USD 80 figure is a marketing call-to-action, not a typical EOR invoice.

Not the right fit for

  • US-only payroll buyers
  • Teams that need MCP or a public API

Remote

Stands out: Published USD prices plus a hosted MCP server at mcp.remote.com and a public employment API.

Watch out: EOR is $599 per employee/month, not $29. Contractor Management Plus is $99 and Contractor of Record $325. FX uses Remote’s own rate.
