Head to head

ChartHop vs One Model

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

ChartHop

$5/employee/mo

People analytics and org-chart platform. ChartHop Core is $5/employee/mo billed annually; HRIS, planning, and compensation are extra modules.

Where ChartHop fits

People ops teams replacing org-chart spreadsheets
Finance and HR partners who need headcount and compensation in one model
Companies that want people analytics without swapping the HRIS
Orgs already on ADP, Greenhouse, Ashby, or Workday that need a live org graph

One Model

Sales-quoted

Enterprise people-analytics platform that unifies HR data and adds AI Q&A plus an MCP server. Pricing is quote-based.

Where One Model fits

Enterprise people-analytics teams on Workday or SAP
CHROs who need board-ready workforce stories
Teams that want AI chat on governed HR data
Companies replacing spreadsheet HR metrics

Where they pull apart

ChartHop

Stands out: Core is a real public number with the org chart, employee map, and Ask ChartHop included, then you stack Headcount Planning, Compensation, Performance, or Engagement at $3–$4/employee/mo instead of buying a full HCM.

Watch out: Modules are not a cheaper alternative to Core. You pay Core plus each module, billed annually, so a team that wants HRIS, planning, and compensation is looking at $5+$4+$4+$4 per employee per month, not $5. ChartHop AI Pro is pay-as-you-go on top.

Not the right fit for

Teams that only need a static PDF org chart
Buyers who want a free forever plan

One Model

Stands out: MCP lets Claude, Copilot, and ChatGPT query governed workforce data instead of a generic model.

Watch out: Editions are named but unpublished. One AI predictive modeling is Enterprise-only. MCP is an add-on on lower editions.

Not the right fit for

Small HR teams that want self-serve pricing
Buyers who only need a simple pulse survey
