The short version

  • Only Lark has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Lark lark's own pricing page description states it offers a free starter pack, a Pro plan, and an Enterprise plan, and directs buyers to Contact us rather than publishing Pro/Enterprise figures on the rendered page.; TriNet no fixed pricing is published; the site states pricing depends on company size and state and requires talking to a consultant for a quote, per trinet.com, August 2026
