Real annual costs at 100 seats, computed from verified vendor pricing
Updated September 8, 2026 · 18 platforms priced · All company sizes · How we verify
At 100 people, OKRs stop being a founder ritual and become an operating system. You have department goals, company goals, and the first real risk of the two drifting apart. The tooling decision at this size is usually a five-figure annual line item, which means procurement starts asking questions — and most vendors' pricing pages stop answering them.
Annual cost computed at 100 paid seats from each vendor's verified pricing — list rates, minimums, and free-tier ceilings included. Vendors that sell only by quote are shown at labeled third-party per-seat estimates, with observed contract data in the notes. All figures are list-price ceilings — vendors that negotiate volume discounts land below them.
| Platform | Annual cost | Per seat/mo | Basis | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $1,238-1,548 | $1.03-1.29 | Listed | Flat monthly fees rather than per-seat pricing. No enterprise contract tier. | |
| $2,160-2,592 | $1.8-2.16 | Listed | Atlassian Marketplace app billed for the whole Jira instance, not just OKR users. Annual billing is 10x the monthly rate (2 months free). | |
| $3,720-10,800 | $3.1-9 | Listed | Sold as fixed user packages with a declining per-seat scale, from $9/user/month at 7-15 users down to ~$3.10 at 850. Annual billing saves 20%. | |
| $7,200-12,000 | $6-10 | Listed | Basic $6 and Premium $10 per user/month on annual billing, no seat or spend minimums. Every paid seat includes 2 free read-only seats, and volume discounts apply beyond 100 seats — list totals at larger sizes are ceilings. | |
| $7,800-8,400 | $6.5-7 | Estimated | USD figures are third-party conversions of INR list pricing, US-facing tiers are quote-only. Enterprise (500+) is custom. | |
| $8,400-13,200 | $7-11 | Listed | Microsoft Teams-native. Free for up to 10 users with no time limit, then Essential $7 and Professional $11 per user/month on annual billing. | |

| $10,800-18,000 | $9-15 | Estimated | Pricing is no longer public — per-seat estimates run $9-15/user/month, anchored on the formerly published $7-9 Growth plan. Third-party transaction data suggests typical annual contracts of $10k-17k, which sets the floor shown here. | |

Listed = the vendor's own published price. Estimated = third-party estimate where the vendor publishes nothing. Quote = sales-led with observed contract data where available. Each vendor's price carries a last-verified date on the pricing comparison, sourced from the vendor's own pricing page.
Purpose-built for exactly this motion — department OKRs rolling up to company goals, weekly check-ins that populate leadership reporting automatically, and AI that drafts goals and flags at-risk work. At $6-10 per user each month with no minimum, it undercuts the HR suites while doing more for the OKR use case specifically.
A mature dedicated OKR platform with strong roll-up reporting and a strategy map that scales cleanly to a 100-person org chart. Comparable pricing to Tability, with cheap view-only licenses for the broader company.
If the goal program lives with HR and performance reviews are part of the same conversation, Peoplebox bundles OKRs and reviews at $8 per person each month — cheaper than buying an OKR tool and a review tool separately.
The buying process changes before the software does. At 100 employees there is a budget owner, a security review, and often an HR team with opinions about whether goals belong inside the performance-management suite. The dedicated-tool-versus-HR-suite question gets decided here, and it is worth deciding deliberately rather than by default.
HR suites start making their bundle argument at this size — Lattice and Peoplebox price their OKR modules at $8 per person, betting you will add reviews, engagement, and compensation modules later. The bundle is real value if HR owns the goal program. It is scope creep if the leadership team just wants outcome tracking with a weekly pulse.
Adoption risk replaces price as the biggest cost. At 100 seats, the difference between a tool people use and a tool people ignore is worth far more than the $2,000-6,000 separating the mid-priced options. Check-in reminders, Slack and Teams integrations, and a UI that contributors do not need training for are what keep utilization above the line where the renewal makes sense.
This is the first size where companies commonly license fewer seats than they have employees. If only managers and team leads write updates, a 100-person company might buy 40-60 seats — check whether viewers need paid licenses. Tability's 2 free read-only seats per paid seat and Perdoo's cheap view-only licenses both cut the real bill well below list price.
Across the 17 platforms with computable pricing at 100 seats, listed annual prices run from $1,238 to $31,200 per year, with a median around $9,600. Third-party estimates for vendors without public pricing reach $36,000. Every figure is computed from pricing verified against the vendor’s own pricing page.
The cheapest paid option is OKRs Tool at $1,238-1,548 per year. Tability, the lowest-priced full-featured dedicated OKR platform, comes to $7,200-12,000 per year at full seats.
Decide who owns the goal program. If leadership runs OKRs as an operating rhythm, a dedicated tool does the job better and costs less. If HR runs goals as an input to performance reviews, a suite like Lattice or Peoplebox avoids syncing two systems. The expensive mistake is buying a suite for its OKR module alone — you pay for the bundle either way.
With a dedicated tool, one planning cycle — import or draft goals in week one, run weekly check-ins from week two. Suites tied to HR calendars typically take a quarter because they launch alongside a review cycle. If a vendor's proposal includes a multi-month implementation phase at this size, that is the product telling you it was built for somebody bigger.
The bottom line: Tability is our pick for 100 employees, with the costs above computed from verified pricing rather than vendor marketing. For the capability-weighted view of this segment, see best okr software for mid-market.
