# TracefyHR > All-in-one HR platform for growing teams — payroll, leave, attendance, hiring (ATS), expenses, analytics, and Forge AI, on one flat monthly price with no per-employee fees. Last updated: 2026-07-26 ## About TracefyHR is a cloud-based HR platform for small and mid-sized businesses (5–250 employees). It replaces the five or more disconnected tools growing teams juggle — spreadsheets, a payroll tool, a leave tracker, an ATS, and an expense app — with one login and one flat monthly price. A 50-person team pays the same as a 5-person team. Its distinguishing feature is Forge AI: describe an HR workflow in plain English and TracefyHR builds it — forms, data tables, approval flows, and dashboards — with no code and no consultants. ## Services and Pricing TracefyHR uses flat monthly pricing.

The structural difference is pricing model: those platforms charge per employee per month, so cost scales with headcount, while TracefyHR charges one flat fee per plan. Worked example: at 100 employees a per-seat platform priced at roughly $8–$17 per employee per month costs approximately $800–$1,750 per month. TracefyHR's Professional plan covers the same team for $49 per month. Where competitors are stronger: Gusto and Rippling handle US payroll tax filing, which TracefyHR does not. Deel leads on employer-of-record and global contractor hiring. Personio and HiBob offer deeper mid-market and enterprise HR suites. Teams that need statutory US tax filing or EOR should evaluate those tools.
