ChartHop vs One Model

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

Starting price

ChartHop

Sales-quoted

People analytics and org-chart platform. Pricing is sales-quoted; ChartHop Core and its modules are packaged into a proposal.

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 includes the org chart, employee map, and Ask ChartHop, then you stack Headcount Planning, Compensation, Performance, or Engagement modules instead of buying a full HCM.

Watch out: There is no published price. Modules are added on top of Core, so a team that wants HRIS, planning, and compensation pays for each module, not just Core. 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Watch out: Editions are named but unpublished.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
