Deel vs Envoy Global

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

Starting price

Deel

$49/contractor/mo

Global employer of record, payroll and contractor payments. EOR employees are $599 each per month and contractors $49; the $14 entry is the hiring module per worker.

Where Deel fits

  • Companies hiring in many countries without entities
  • Teams paying global contractors
  • HR organisations that also want a light hire module
  • Buyers who want MCP on employment data

Envoy Global

Sales-quoted

Envoy Global is a corporate immigration service with its own case platform, suited to mid-size and large employers that sponsor visas and green cards, often across several countries. Pricing is quote-only: flat per-matter legal fees scoped to your volume and countries, with government filing fees itemized separately and no charge for platform access or implementation.

Where Envoy Global fits

  • 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
  • Companies that want spend and approval-rate reporting on their program

Where they pull apart

Deel

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.

Not the right fit for

  • US-only small-business payroll
  • Teams that need Deel to be the ATS of record

Envoy Global

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.

Not the right fit for

  • Individuals or families filing their own immigration cases
  • Teams that need a public price list before talking to sales
