Figures vs Konquest

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

Starting price

Figures

Sales-quoted

Figures is a European compensation platform for mid-market and enterprise HR. Pricing is based on employee count and the modules you pick (salary bands, benchmarking, pay equity, planning). The vendor does not print a dollar or euro rate.

Where Figures fits

  • European and UK mid-market HR teams building salary bands for EU pay transparency
  • Compensation leads who want live market data plus a planning calculator in one login
  • Companies connecting 30-plus HRIS options rather than uploading CSVs forever
  • Employers that need pay-equity analysis inside the same platform as bands

Konquest

Sales-quoted

Konquest automates recruiter commission for staffing firms. Base and Pro both include the first 5 users. Prices are demo-quoted, with 12-month contracts and volume or multi-year discounts.

Where Konquest fits

  • Staffing agencies still running commission in spreadsheets
  • Finance teams tired of clawbacks and split errors
  • Multi-currency desks that pay perm and temp on different plans
  • Agencies that can plug a CRM or pay-and-bill system into commission

Where they pull apart

Figures

Stands out: Benchmark data covers total rewards (base, variable, benefits) on 550,000 datapoints across 110-plus countries, with salary-band generation tied to that market set.

Watch out: Pay Equity Expert, population filters, and several other capabilities are optional paid add-ons on the comparison table. A demo is required for a quote. SOC 2 Type 2 and ISO 27001 are stated.

Not the right fit for

  • US SMB buyers who want a printed CompAnalyst-style store price
  • Teams that only need a free market-data lookup without salary-band software

Konquest

Stands out: The scheme editor is built for perm, contract, and temp desks: thresholds, tiers, splits, clawbacks, pay-when-paid, manager overrides, and multi-currency on live or fixed rates.

Watch out: Base caps at 5 schemes, 2 teams, 3 currencies, and 1 integration. Setup is a paid project plus two hours of training and a payroll workshop. There is no public monthly number.

Not the right fit for

  • In-house TA teams with no consultant commission
  • Agencies that need a published per-user SaaS price today

Pros and cons

Figures

  • Modular platform so you can buy bands without every analytics add-on
  • 550k total-reward datapoints across 110-plus countries on the benchmark module
  • SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, and GDPR called out on the pricing FAQ
  • No published seat or PEPM number
  • Pay equity and several filters are add-ons, so the demo quote can climb
  • European-first positioning. US-only shops may prefer a US data vendor

Konquest

  • Scheme editor designed for recruiter perm/temp/contract plans
  • Clawbacks, splits, and multi-currency are first-class
  • Base includes 5 users rather than charging the first seats extra
  • No public price
  • 12-month contract with a setup fee
  • Base limits schemes, teams, currencies, and integrations
