The short answer

  • Deel : Global EOR and contractor platform if you want a second multi-country quote. From $49/contractor/mo
  • Remote : EOR plus payroll with published pricing for comparison. From $29/employee/mo
  • Papaya Global : Global payroll and EOR if you already run a Papaya evaluation. From Quote-based
  • Multiplier : Lower-cost EOR option for smaller international teams. From $459/employee/mo

Why people look past G-P

The $39 headline is G-P Contractor, not EOR. EOR starts at $599 per employee per month, and bundles or volume discounts need a quote.

What we noted

  • EOR at $599/employee is a high entry cost
  • Gia AI agent is a separate $500 seat
  • Bundle pricing needs a sales quote

Not the right fit for

  • US-only payroll shops
  • Very small teams with one overseas hire on a tight budget

Worth keeping in mind: Published EOR, contractor and AI agent prices, plus a hosted MCP server and public API.

What each one does differently

Deel

$49/contractor/mo MCP API

Why it comes up: Global EOR and contractor platform if you want a second multi-country quote.

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.

Best for

  • Companies hiring in many countries without entities
  • Teams paying global contractors
  • HR organisations that also want a light hire module

Remote

$29/employee/mo MCP API

Why it comes up: EOR plus payroll with published pricing for comparison.

Stands out: Published USD prices plus a hosted MCP server at mcp.remote.com and a public employment API.

Watch out: EOR is $699 per employee/month, not $29. Payroll has implementation and delivery fees on top. FX uses Remote’s own rate.

Best for

  • Companies hiring abroad without a local entity
  • Teams paying contractors in many countries
  • US PEO buyers who want one global vendor

Papaya Global

Quote-based API

Why it comes up: Global payroll and EOR if you already run a Papaya evaluation.

Stands out: One operating layer for EOR and unified global payroll when the brief is headcount in many countries, not a US PEO.

Watch out: This is a quote-led employment contract, not a self-serve HRIS. Budget the country statutory stack on top of the platform fee.

Best for

  • Companies hiring in many countries without local entities
  • Finance and people ops that want payroll and EOR in one vendor
  • Teams already running a global workforce, not a first overseas contractor

Multiplier

$459/employee/mo

Why it comes up: Lower-cost EOR option for smaller international teams.

Stands out: A published per-employee EOR number, which is still uncommon in this category, plus contractor and payroll SKUs beside it.

Watch out: The $459 figure is the Core annual employee fee, not all-in employment cost. Some countries price off-list, and Growth is higher.

Best for

  • US companies hiring in APAC without entities
  • Finance teams that want a flat EOR fee they can model
  • Teams mixing employees and contractors abroad
