Pricing

Full-service payroll for $89 a month plus $10 per paid worker.

That is the founding price: one base fee per employer and one price per worker paid in the month. Routine payroll, corrections, standard reports, reviewable records, and support belong in the subscription—not a maze of add-ons.

Everyday payroll, with the scope made clear.

The planned subscription includes routine payroll, corrections, standard reports, and support. Any separately priced work will have an agreed scope and fee before it starts.

Full-service payroll

$89 / month + $10 per paid worker

One subscription for setup, payroll runs, tax work, corrections, reports, support, and the records behind every number. The base is billed once per employer; each worker is counted once in a month, however many paydays they are paid.

How the price works

The model is deliberately simple: a base monthly price plus a worker price. A paid worker is any employee or contractor the employer pays at least once in a calendar month, counted once. A month with no payroll is billed the base only.

This is a founding price. Employers who enroll before Runbook publishes list pricing keep it for twelve months from their first live payday. Payment timing, cancellation terms, and the full service boundaries will be published before enrollment opens. The final terms will explain which migration, historical reconstruction, and specialist work is included or separately quoted.

The proof demo is free and available now. Specialized advisor, notice, and correction projects are scoped separately when they fall outside the agreed subscription scope, such as reconstructing prior-provider records. These remain part of the payroll relationship. Not currently offered for purchase.

Founding price reviewed October 7, 2026. Live payroll enrollment has not opened; this page states the price Runbook intends to honor at enrollment, not a current offer.
