Keka Pricing
How bundled HR platform pricing works, what drives the cost up, and the question worth asking before renewal: how much of the bundle are you actually opening?

Bundled
Per employee, by module tier
Core HR
Records, leave, documents
Mid tier
Attendance, timesheets, expenses
Upper tier
Performance and hiring
Direct answer
Keka prices per employee per month across tiers that bundle payroll, core HR, performance, and hiring modules in different combinations.
The cost step that surprises budgets is the tier jump: needing one module and acquiring four alongside it. In a typical 60-person company roughly 40% of purchased HR modules go rarely opened after the first year. Insight by Hyring Pro is $7 per user per month with no module gating.
| Pricing basis | Per employee per month, by module tier |
|---|---|
| Common surprise | Tier jump to unlock one module |
| Modules rarely opened | ~40% after year one |
| Insight by Hyring Pro | $7 per user per month, ungated |
| Insight by Hyring Enterprise | $14 per user per month |
| List prices | $14 and $21 respectively |
Keka prices per employee per month across tiers that bundle payroll, core HR, performance, and hiring modules in different combinations. Rates move by region, headcount band, and billing period, so confirm current figures with the vendor before putting a number in a budget. What this page is actually about is the structure, which is stable, and what it means for how you buy.
We build Insight by Hyring, which overlaps with one narrow part of what an HR platform does. That overlap is worth understanding precisely, because the two products are priced for different jobs and comparing headline rates tells you almost nothing useful.
How Bundled HR Pricing Works
Tiers gate modules rather than usage, so the cost step happens when you need one thing that sits a tier up.
The model is straightforward. Lower tiers cover core HR, records, and leave. Middle tiers add attendance depth, timesheets, and expenses. Upper tiers add performance management, hiring, and analytics. Everything is per employee per month, so cost scales with headcount as well as with tier.
The surprise in most budgets is not the per-employee rate, it is the tier jump. A company needing one module, usually performance reviews or advanced attendance rules, moves up a tier and acquires four other modules alongside it. That is not a criticism of the model, bundling is how this category has always worked and it is often genuinely cheaper than buying separately. It just means the sticker price and the eventual price are frequently different numbers.
What You Pay For Against What You Use
In a typical 60-person company, roughly 40% of purchased HR modules are rarely opened after the first year.
What you pay for against what you use
| Modules purchased | Modules actually needed | |
|---|---|---|
| Rarely opened | 40% | — |
| Used monthly | 25% | 25% |
| Used weekly | 35% | 35% |
Typical module usage in a 60-person company on a bundled HR platform
Bundling is how HR platforms price, and it is efficient when you use the bundle. The 40% nobody opens is the part worth examining before renewal, because it is usually the same 40% every year.
Usage settles within about twelve months and then almost nobody revisits it. The renewal conversation is usually about the rate rather than about which modules earned their place, which is the more useful question and the one that occasionally produces a real saving.
Cost Per User, Like For Like
The rates are close. What the money buys is not.
| Bundled HR platform, mid tier | $6 |
|---|---|
| Bundled HR platform, upper tier with performance | $10 |
| Insight by Hyring Pro, founding | $7 |
| Insight by Hyring Enterprise, founding | $14 |
These are not the same product and the comparison is only useful once you know which job you are buying for. An HR platform at $6 that you use for payroll and leave is good value. The same $6 buying visibility into how work happens is buying nothing, because that is not what the module does.

What $7 Actually Includes
Everything in Pro, with no module gating and no tier jump to reach the useful parts.
Desktop companion
A floating avatar that reads the day and speaks to the employee before any manager sees it. Offers a sprint, checks in on suspicious perfection, celebrates a good run.
Shared focus music rooms
Teams listen in sync across curated channels, with room presence showing who is deep in work. No competitor in this category has built this.
Wellbeing reminders
Water, stretch, the 20-20-20 eye rule, end-of-day wind-down, and custom prompts, with notifications muted during focus sessions.
Kudos and team pulse
Recognition and presence in the same product as the work data, rather than a separate culture tool nobody opens.
An AI you can ask
Plain questions, plain answers. Who is closest to burnout, where did the sprint go, who is finishing after nine.
Employee-first visibility
Every person sees their own data before anyone else, and no keystroke content is ever captured. Permanent design, not a setting.
The relevant difference is that none of this is tiered. Time tracking, activity levels, the companion avatar and custom reminders, focus music with team rooms, kudos and the monthly leaderboard, company-wide presence, screenshots with privacy controls, AI screenshot and URL understanding, the business intelligence bot, and unlimited history and exports all sit in Pro at $7. Enterprise at $14 adds SSO and SAML, white label, advanced roles, audit logs, and custom retention, which most companies do not need until compliance or brand requirements arrive.
Insight by Hyring is the only product here connected to a hiring platform, so work data flows into people decisions and into the next hire. No standalone tracker can close that loop.
Where Each One Earns Its Money
An HR platform earns its cost on payroll and compliance. Insight by Hyring earns its cost on capacity and retention.
If your problem is running payroll accurately, holding statutory records, and getting appraisal cycles done, a bundled HR platform is the right purchase and $6 a head is good value for it. Nothing here competes with that.
If your problem is that you cannot tell which team is overloaded, why a project overran, or that your strongest engineer has been finishing after nine for a month, an HR platform will not answer it at any tier, and $7 a head for a product that does is a different calculation entirely. The two are complementary rather than competing, and companies at scale generally end up running both.
Pro is $7 per user per month and Enterprise is $14, under the founding offer for the first 7,000 companies. List prices are $14 and $21. Your rate is frozen for as long as the subscription stays active, not for the first year. Before that, 30 days free with every Pro feature, unlimited users, and no credit card.
