Figures

European modern compensation benchmarking with GDPR-first architecture.

By Figures HR SAS · Founded 2020 · Paris, France · private

Figures is the European modern compensation benchmarking and planning platform, founded 2020 in Paris. The product covers real-time European benchmarking + compensation cycles + total rewards + pay equity reporting, anchored on a European data network sourced from 1,500+ EU customer companies and the EU Pay Transparency Directive readiness. Strengths: deepest European benchmarking dataset (the strongest non-Pave alternative for EU compensation data), GDPR-first architecture (data residency in Frankfurt by default; no US data flow for EU customers), strong fit for European-headquartered firms and US firms with significant European headcount, modern UX competitive with Pave, and EU Pay Transparency Directive native compliance positioning. Trade-offs: smaller US installed base than Pave (US benchmarking depth below Pave), planning workflow less mature than Pave for US-only orgs, and pricing meaningful at scale similar to Pave.

  • “Figures is the only comp platform where my Frankfurt data residency requirement is the default, not a custom enterprise add-on.”

  • “For our 800 EU employees Figures is unbeatable. Our 200 US employees are still on Pave because the US dataset is deeper there.”
