Head to head

Stiira vs Tilt

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

Stiira

Sales-quoted

Stiira is leave software for employers that run FMLA, ADA and state PFML in house, including concurrent federal and state leave. The subscription is quoted, and employer implementation starts at $1,995.

Where Stiira fits

  • US HR teams that want to administer leave themselves
  • Employers tracking continuous, intermittent, and reduced schedules
  • Programs that move from FMLA into an ADA leave when job protection ends
  • Third party administrators that want software rather than building a case system

Tilt

$2.50/employee/mo

Tilt sells US leave software at $2.50 per employee per month for Essentials and $3.50 for Professional. Platform Only leaves decisions with the employer. Premium Support adds Tilt specialists.

Where Tilt fits

  • US employers that want HR to run FMLA, ADA, and state paid leave in house
  • Teams that want payroll facing leave math on the Professional plan
  • Companies already on Rippling, BambooHR, Workday, Paycor, or Paylocity
  • Programs that may add a specialist later instead of outsourcing every case

Where they pull apart

Stiira

Stands out: The same company sells a separate edition to third party administrators, with implementation starting at $2,995. The employer page says implementation typically takes 5 to 6 weeks and that employee self service is included.

Watch out: The subscription fee is quoted, so budget it from a demo on top of the implementation fee. No HRIS product names are listed.

Not the right fit for

  • Employers outside the United States
  • A buyer who needs a published per employee price before implementation

Tilt

Stands out: AbsenceIQ is the vendor leave intelligence system, and Tilley is an AI phone assistant sold as a paid add on. Essentials lists all leave types and state PFML programs.

Watch out: Add ons change the headline price: integrations, premium support and the Tilley phone assistant are extra on Essentials, and adding premium support brings a $5,995 minimum contract. Coverage is US federal, state and company leave only.

Not the right fit for

  • Employers outside the United States
  • A buyer who wants a fully outsourced administrator and no internal leave work
