Head to head

Orgvue vs Pigment

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

Orgvue

Sales-quoted

Org-design and workforce-scenario modeling for enterprises. Licenses split into Org Insights and Org Design, with add-ons, and none of those prices are public.

Where Orgvue fits

  • HR, finance, and strategy teams running restructures with costed to-be scenarios
  • Enterprises that need a cleaned org dataset before they draw charts
  • Workforce planners adding Strategic Workforce Planning on top of design
  • Companies already feeding HRIS data into an org-design specialist

Pigment

Sales-quoted 14 day free trial

Pigment is a business planning platform with named headcount planning and workforce planning, including org charts and scenarios. There is no public price. A 14 day platform trial does not include self serve purchasing.

Where Pigment fits

  • HR and finance teams planning headcount and cost in one model
  • Companies that already run FP&A in Pigment and want workforce scenarios
  • Planners who want merit and promotion planning next to headcount
  • Teams that will connect an AI client through the Pigment MCP server

Where they pull apart

Orgvue

Stands out: Core licenses are Org Insights (current-state charts, analytics, joiner-mover-leaver) and Org Design (to-be structures, costed scenarios, talent selection). People Planning and Strategic Workforce Planning are module add-ons.

Watch out: Configuration is done with Orgvue experts. This is not a self-serve $29 org-chart editor. Expect a project, not a credit-card signup.

Not the right fit for

  • Small teams that only need a pretty org chart from a CSV
  • Buyers who need a printed per-seat price and a 22-day trial

Pigment

Stands out: Headcount planning is a named use case with org charts, hiring workflows, and connections to finance data. Pigment publishes both an API and an MCP server for Pigment AI.

Watch out: Workday, Greenhouse, HiBob, and Lever are marked on the roadmap, not as live connectors. Live names on the integrations page are NetSuite, Sage Intacct, and SAP. The product is also used for finance and supply chain planning.

Not the right fit for

  • A buyer who wants a dedicated org chart tool and nothing else
  • Teams that need a live Workday or Greenhouse connector today

Pros and cons

Orgvue

  • Clear split between Insights (as-is) and Design (to-be) licenses
  • Strategic workforce planning and people planning as named add-ons
  • Built to take messy HRIS data through cleaning before modeling
  • No public rate card. Expert configuration is part of the motion
  • No Capterra reviews on the matched product page
  • Overkill if you only need a three-seat org chart

Pigment

  • Headcount planning and workforce planning are named products on the site
  • 14 day trial of the platform, then read only access
  • Documented API and an MCP server when Pigment AI is on
  • Not a standalone org chart product
  • Major HRIS and ATS connectors are still marked on the roadmap
  • No public price
