Employer of Record (EOR)
Employs your team through its own local entity and runs contracts, payroll and benefits while you direct the work.
PEO
Supports a company that already employs locally by sharing HR, benefits and payroll administration. In the US this is usually co-employment.
Payroll service
Processes payroll and filings for an employment setup you already have.

Service names vary by country, so check the actual arrangement before signing. Read our EOR vs PEO comparison or what global payroll covers.

How does Peorient work?

  1. Tell us what you need

    Country, team size and start date, plus anything that matters to you: benefits, IP protection, budget.

    About 2 minutes
  2. We research the market

    We compare EOR, PEO and payroll providers on pricing, local strength, benefits, contract terms and support, against your brief.

    1-2 business days
  3. You get a clear shortlist

    A focused comparison of the providers that fit, their quoted fees, key trade-offs and our recommendation.

What's in your shortlist?

A side-by-side comparison of the providers that fit your brief, the quoted fees, key cost assumptions and the reasons behind our recommendation.

Each comparison starts with your requirements. A provider that suits five remote engineers may not suit a larger team with different benefits, support or local operating needs.

Sample shortlist

India, 12 engineers, starting in 60 days

Illustrative
  1. Provider A Our pick
    $349service fee / employee / month
    • Own India entity
    • Strong benefits
    • 5-day onboarding
  2. Provider B Lowest fee
    $299service fee / employee / month
    • Partner network
    • Basic benefits
    • 10-day onboarding
  3. Provider C Built to scale
    $449service fee / employee / month
    • Own India entity
    • Strong benefits
    • 7-day onboarding

Why Provider A: in this example, the benefits package and proposed start date fit the brief better. Its service fee is $50 more per employee than B, or $600 more a month for 12 hires. Contract and IP terms still need review.

Fictional providers, fees and timings to demonstrate the format. These are service fees only. Salary, employer contributions, benefits, taxes and deposits are excluded. Actual quotes depend on your brief.

Is Peorient really free for companies?

Yes. Peorient charges companies no advisory fee. Recommended providers pay us a referral fee when you become a client through us. You still pay the provider for its services. Peorient is affiliated with Remunance, an India EOR we review.

How much does an EOR cost?

Published EOR service fees range from about $99 per employee a month for some India specialists to $599 or more for global platforms. Your total budget also includes salary, employer contributions, benefits, deposits, currency conversion and one-off charges, so compare full quotes rather than headline fees. Try the fee explorer to see how a fee gap adds up.

How fast will I get my shortlist?

We reply within one business day of your brief, and most shortlists are ready within 2-3 business days. If you have a fixed start date, include it in your brief so we can assess the timing.

Should I use an EOR, a PEO or my own entity?

An Employer of Record (EOR) lets you hire through a provider's local employment setup when you have no entity. PEO or payroll support may suit an existing entity. Your own entity may be worth assessing for a longer-term operation. The right route depends on your country, activities and team. Our EOR vs PEO guide covers the trade-offs.

Which providers will you compare for me?

We research global platforms and regional specialists across EOR, PEO and payroll. The providers compared for your brief depend on your countries, requirements and available information. Read our provider reviews, and your shortlist only includes the ones that fit your brief.

Which countries do you cover?

Tell us where you need to hire, including if you are considering several countries. We will confirm the research scope and suitable provider options for your brief. For India, start with our comparison of the best EOR providers in India.

Can you help with just one employee?

Yes. Your first international hire is a good reason to compare providers. Choose 1 as your team size in the brief and tell us your country and start date.

Can you help me switch from another EOR?

Yes. Include your current provider and the reason for switching. We can compare alternatives and identify questions about employee transfers, notice periods, benefits and continuity before you commit.

Do you help after I choose a provider?

Yes, at no cost. We help with onboarding questions, policy templates and troubleshooting after you've signed.
