Compare/Head to head

Calm Business vs Wellhub

Same facts, side by side: starting price, free tier, MCP, API and what each one is actually built for.

Starting price

Calm Business

Sales-quoted

Employer meditation and sleep benefit. Not the consumer Calm app. Pricing is sales-quoted.

Where Calm Business fits

Benefits teams adding a mental-wellness app
Employers that want meditation and sleep, not therapy
Companies already comparing Headspace for Work
HR teams that will take a quote for a per-employee benefit

Wellhub

$1/employee/mo

Employer wellness subscription across gyms, studios, and wellbeing apps (formerly Gympass). Employer plans start as low as $1 per employee per month; employees pick a monthly plan.

Where Wellhub fits

Employers that want gym and app access as the wellbeing benefit
Companies replacing a single-gym corporate membership
HR teams that will share cost with employees
Global offices that need a partner network rather than one vendor clinic

Where they pull apart

Calm Business

Stands out: The Calm content library as an employer SKU: sleep and meditation, not therapy.

Watch out: Do not buy the consumer subscription and call it a benefit. This is a quoted employer plan, and it is not clinical care.

Not the right fit for

Employers that need licensed therapy
Teams that want a public per-employee price
Buyers confusing this with the consumer App Store product

Wellhub

Stands out: It is a fitness-and-apps network, not a clinical EAP: employees book gyms and premium wellness apps from one membership, which is why utilization looks like a gym benefit rather than a therapy benefit.

Watch out: Budget two line items. The employer pays a per-employee contribution, listed as low as $1, $10, or $50 per employee per month and varying with headcount. Employees then pay a monthly plan from Digital at $0/mo up to Diamond at $344.99/mo. A 'free wellness perk' still asks staff to subscribe unless you subsidize a paid tier.

Not the right fit for

Teams that need clinical therapy and psychiatry
Employers that will not ask employees to pay a monthly plan

Wellhub

$1/employee/mo

Wellhub publishes employer plans priced per employee per month: Entry as low as $1, Full as low as $10, and Premium as low as $50. The vendor says these figures are based on enterprise client pricing and vary with total employee count and service offering, so the final contribution comes from a sales quote. Employees then pick their own monthly plan, from Digital at $0 up to Diamond at $344.99. Broader than clinical mental health. Confirm current terms on the vendor site.
