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.\n2. **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.\n3. **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", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
