The Verdict for Startups
If you want a published EOR rate under $200 per employee and you will still price deposits, employer taxes, and benefits by country, Remote People is the stronger call for Tech Startups: the $199 Flex fee, $29 contractor fee, and in-house recruitment on the same account keep the first international hire on one invoice. If instead your board treats IP ownership and compliance purity as non-negotiable, Remote is the better shortlist candidate: it owns 100% of its local entities and folds IP assignment plus zero-markup FX into the base fee.
