Reported limitation
Every EOR tier carries unpriced compliance add-ons and an implementation fee, so the published rate is a floor, not a quote.
Reported limitation
The pricing page contradicts itself on Contractor of Record ($400 on the card, $399 in the FAQ) — minor, but it means you should get the number in writing.
Reported limitation
At the time we fetched it, the pricing page still carried Latin placeholder text ("Ut enim ad minim veniam...") under the add-on lines, so the add-on explanation is effectively missing.
