Viva Glint vs Workleap

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

Starting price

Viva Glint

$2/user/mo

Microsoft Viva employee listening. Viva Glint is $2/user/mo paid yearly; Workplace Analytics + Feedback is $6; Viva Suite is $12.

Where Viva Glint fits

  • Microsoft 365 customers already buying Viva
  • Enterprise listening programs that want lifecycle, engagement, and 360 surveys
  • People teams that will act on results in Teams
  • Orgs combining survey sentiment with Viva Insights workplace analytics

Workleap

$4,999/yr Free tier

Engagement, performance, org chart, and a manager AI agent. Standard starts at $4,999 USD per year, billed annually, not $5/user/mo.

Where Workleap fits

  • Mid-market HR replacing Officevibe plus a separate review tool
  • Companies that want pulse surveys, recognition, and org charts together
  • Manager-effectiveness programs that will use the AI agent
  • Teams on Slack, Teams, or a major HRIS that want provisioning to just work

Where they pull apart

Viva Glint

Stands out: It is the Microsoft-stack listening product: org-wide surveys, lifecycle and 360 templates, and Copilot comment summaries inside the same tenant as Teams and Viva Insights, which is why Microsoft 365 shops pick it over a standalone Culture Amp seat.

Watch out: Copilot in Viva Glint is governed in the Microsoft 365 admin center, not just the Glint admin. A $2 Glint SKU without Copilot enabled and without a clean HRIS feed (Workday / SuccessFactors via MODIS or SFTP) is a survey tool, not the demo you were shown. It auto-renews annually.

Not the right fit for

  • Companies not on Microsoft 365
  • SMBs that want a $4 pulse seat with no Microsoft tenant work

Workleap

Stands out: Officevibe pulses, Pingboard org charts, reviews, recognition, and an AI agent that drafts reviews and briefings now sell as one platform fee, which is simpler than stacking four SKUs at $5/user each.

Watch out: Pricing is a platform minimum, not a per-user $5 seat. Standard is $4,999/yr. MCP and API access start on Pro at $11,999/yr. Enterprise is custom above 250 employees. There is no free plan.

Not the right fit for

  • Buyers who need a per-seat price rather than a $4,999/yr platform fee
  • Organizations that need MCP/API on the cheapest tier
  • Very large enterprises that will be pushed to a custom +250 plan

Pros and cons

Viva Glint

  • Public Glint SKU at $2/user/mo paid yearly
  • Lives in Microsoft 365 with Teams and Viva Insights
  • Copilot summaries of comments and manager reports
  • Copilot access is a separate M365 admin setting
  • A poor fit if you are not already a Microsoft shop
  • Annual auto-renew on the Glint SKU

Workleap

  • One platform fee covering pulses, reviews, org chart, and recognition
  • AI review drafts and briefings on Standard
  • Named HRIS connectors including Workday, BambooHR, HiBob, and UKG
  • $4,999/yr platform floor, not a per-user price
  • MCP and API are Pro-only
  • No free plan
