Boundless from Sales-quoted

The short answer

  • Envoy Global : Envoy Global covers 180+ countries with flat per-matter fees and AI error screening, aimed at larger enterprise mobility programs. From Sales-quoted
  • Velocity Global : Velocity Global offers managed global employment and mobility, useful when you need to employ staff abroad, which Boundless does not do. From Sales-quoted
  • Deel : Deel is an EOR, payroll and contractor platform, a better fit when hiring abroad is the core need rather than visa sponsorship. From $49/contractor/mo

Why people look past Boundless

There is no public business rate card, and Boundless does not publish an API or name specific HRIS connectors. It does not handle litigation, removal defense or asylum, and its own site sells heavily to consumers, so check the business service scope in a demo.

What we noted

  • Business pricing is quote-only
  • No public API or named HRIS integration list
  • No litigation, removal defense or asylum work

Not the right fit for

  • Employers needing an EOR, payroll or entity setup
  • Cases involving removal proceedings, appeals or asylum

Worth keeping in mind: Boundless runs in-house teams in the US, UK, Germany, Spain, the Netherlands and Austria and coordinates partners elsewhere, invoicing in one currency. The platform syncs with your HRIS and flags immigration triggers when employee data changes.

What each one does differently

Envoy Global

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Envoy Global covers 180+ countries with flat per-matter fees and AI error screening, aimed at larger enterprise mobility programs.

Stands out: Envoy includes its platform at no extra cost and prices legal work as flat per-matter fees with consultation built in, so routine questions during a case do not trigger extra bills. The platform's AI Quality Sensors, data validation and automated USCIS e-filing are live features, not roadmap items.

Watch out: There is no public rate card, so comparing cost requires a scoped quote. Custom integrations beyond the standard HRIS and ATS connectors, dedicated instances and data residency are quoted separately, and Envoy does not document a public API.

Best for

  • Employers sponsoring H-1B, L-1, TN and green card cases at volume
  • Global mobility teams managing work permits in many countries
  • HR teams on Workday or Greenhouse wanting candidate visa checks early

Velocity Global

Sales-quoted

Why it comes up: Velocity Global offers managed global employment and mobility, useful when you need to employ staff abroad, which Boundless does not do.

Stands out: Pebl is the current brand: managed EOR plus mobility, with a named ATS and payroll connector list, not a self-serve EOR calculator.

Watch out: Do not buy this as Velocity Global software you can subscribe to online. It is a services-led employment contract under the Pebl name.

Best for

  • Companies that want managed EOR plus mobility in one relationship
  • Teams already talking to Pebl after the Velocity Global rebrand
  • HR that needs ATS-to-payroll connectors on a global employment stack

Deel

$49/contractor/mo MCP API

Why it comes up: Deel is an EOR, payroll and contractor platform, a better fit when hiring abroad is the core need rather than visa sponsorship.

Stands out: Hiring, contractors and employer of record in one global stack, with MCP and API.

Watch out: The $14 figure is the recruiting module, not the cost of employing someone abroad: employer of record is $599 per employee per month. Contractor of Record is listed at $325 and US PEO at $125.

Best for

  • Companies hiring in many countries without entities
  • Teams paying global contractors
  • HR organisations that also want a light hire module
