- Pricing is quoted in pounds and the product is marketed to UK SMEs
greytHR
- Published starting price of INR 2,495/month covers only up to 50 employees, so larger companies must move to a higher, unpublished tier
- The platform serves 34,000+ companies and its entry tier is scoped by headcount rather than by feature set, meaning growth past 50 employees forces a plan change
