## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-23 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> First, the distinction that actually determines your answer: a **PEO** co-employs people where you already have a legal entity (in practice: US multi-state), while an **EOR** employs people in countries where you have no entity. "Remote team" usually means one or the other, so here's both.
> 
> ## If your remote team is international (you want an EOR)
> 
> 1. **Deel** - the default. EOR in 150+ countries, contractor management in ~190, onboarding in 24-72 hours. Published EOR pricing around $599/employee/month, US PEO at ~$125, contractors from $49. Broadest coverage and the most owned entities, so fewer third-party partner handoffs in odd jurisdictions.
> 2. **Remote** - the best pick if you want owned entities and clean IP/invention assignment. Narrower direct footprint (strong in ~60+ countries), published EOR around $699, contractors from $29. Good choice when you'd rather have depth in a handful of countries than thin coverage everywhere.
> 3. **Rippling** - pick this if the EOR is secondary to running your whole company. Payroll, benefits, time, app/device management and spend in one system, global payroll in 185 countries. EOR pricing is quote-only, which is a real drawback for comparis
