Remote

Strongest Deel alternative with transparent flat-rate pricing and IP/data protection.

By Remote Technology, Inc. · Founded 2019 · San Francisco, CA · private

Remote is the strongest Deel alternative, founded 2019, last valued at $3B+ (2022). The product covers 80+ countries with owned local entities in most major markets. Strengths: transparent flat-rate pricing ($699/employee/month all-in, no add-on fees), strongest IP/data protection commitments in category, and clean modern UX. Best fit for buyers prioritizing pricing transparency and IP protection over Deel's broadest country coverage. Trade-offs: country coverage smaller than Deel (80 vs 150), product velocity strong but slower than Deel, and Support response times vary.

Worst for
