Tax incentive advisory

We help model the credit before you lock the budget, not after the audit. Georgia, NM, NY, CA, Canada.

Pricing that scales with you, not against you

One flat fee. Per person, per check.

Most payroll companies charge a percentage. So as your indie scales, they take more of your above-the-line. We don't. You pay the same per-SSN fee whether you're cutting a $400 PA check or a $40,000 DP check.

  • Flat per-SSN fee, predictable from pre-pro through wrap.
  • No percentage-of-payroll markup as your gross goes up.
  • No setup fee on the first picture.
  • Healthcare & ACA filings included, not an add-on.
  • Cancel between productions, no annual commitment.

On the platform in three weeks.

No six-month onboarding. No mandatory implementation fees. The founders run the migration themselves.
