Best combination of country coverage, immigration/equity support, and a platform that doesn't feel bolted together. It's also the one your finance team has heard of, which matters at audit time.\n2. **Remote.com** - the one I'd pick over Deel if you care about owned entities and IP/invention-assignment rigor. Same ~$599/employee/mo headline, cheapest contractor tier (~$29/mo), and a notably cleaner track record on data handling. Slightly narrower country list than Deel.\n3. **Oyster** - remote-first by design, 100+ countries, ~$699/employee/mo so it's the priciest of the three for EOR, but ~$29/contractor. Worth it if you're a small distributed company that wants a provider whose whole thesis is distributed work rather than an HR suite upsell.\n4. **Multiplier** - the value pick. Meaningfully cheaper than the big three, strong in APAC and the Middle East. Thinner support bench, so ", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
