Why teams pick us over the competition

Flat pricing, whole team included

Our tiers — Starter $29, Team $79, Business $199, Enterprise $499 — are flat monthly prices that include your whole organization at each level. No per-user math.

SMB-built, not enterprise-diluted

We're purpose-built for the 5–150 employee range. Restaurants, churches, cleaning companies, franchises, staffing, government. You won't pay for enterprise features you'll never use.

Documentation + training in one

SOPs, onboarding portals, role assignments, progress tracking, and completion certificates — in one tool. Not a patchwork.

Self-serve from day one

No mandatory sales demo. Click trial, document your first SOP, invite your team. Same afternoon.

Public REST API + Claude (MCP) on every plan

Most competitors lock the API and Claude (MCP) integration behind top tiers or enterprise modules — Scribe MCP is Enterprise-only, Tango has no public API at all, Whale requires Enterprise, and SweetProcess has no MCP. Waybook does offer MCP, but only on their Core plan ($99/mo+). We include the public REST API and Claude (MCP) on every plan, including Free. See developer docs →
