Kontrable: The Teamed Alternative for Contractor-Only Businesses
Teamed charges £55/month per contractor. Manage 25 contractors for $99/month total with Kontrable—no per-contractor fees.
Why Teamed charges per contractor
Teamed offers contractor management at £55/month per contractor (approximately $70 USD). They provide automated contract generation, compliant payments in 150+ currencies, and continuous HR and legal support.
Teamed positions itself as combining "AI efficiency with human expertise" for global hiring. But if you're working with independent contractors who already manage their own taxes and have their own payment accounts? You're paying for infrastructure and support you don't need.
With 10 contractors, Teamed costs £550/month (~$700 USD). With 25 contractors, that's £1,375/month (~$1,750 USD). Kontrable gives you contractor management for a flat $99/month for up to 25 contractors. No per-contractor charges. No month-to-month lock-ins.
The reality of Teamed's pricing
10 contractors on Teamed: £550/month (10 contractors at £55 each, ~$700 USD) before any work is done
Your money flows through them: You pay Teamed, Teamed pays your contractor—adding 3-5 days delay and transfer fees
Built for employees: Payroll, benefits, compliance—features contractors don't need
What Kontrable does differently
We're not a payment processor. We're not trying to be your global payroll provider. We're a contractor management platform that works with the tools you already use.
Your private contractor network
Onboard freelancers, verify identities, store contracts and documents—all in one organized database instead of scattered spreadsheets.
Project & milestone tracking
Create projects with one-time, recurring, or milestone-based payments. Track deadlines and deliverables. Get Slack notifications when things need attention.
AI-powered contract generation
Generate contractor agreements tailored to your needs and the freelancer's location. Not legal advice—just a starting point you can review with your lawyer.
Direct payment tracking
Pay contractors through your existing Wise, PayPal, or Payoneer account. Upload payment proof. Contractors confirm receipt. Everyone has an audit trail.
Never miss a payment or deadline
Automated Slack alerts for overdue payments, approaching milestones, and pending confirmations. Stay on top of your contractor operations effortlessly.
Simple, fair pricing
Starting at $99/month for up to 25 contractors. No per-transfer fees. No hidden costs. Pay your team directly through Wise, PayPal, or Payoneer and keep full control of your money.
Who this is for
Small agencies, remote startups, and freelancer-first businesses working with 3-15 contractors who:
Already use Wise, PayPal, or Payoneer for international payments
Don't need Employer of Record services (your contractors handle their own taxes)
Want to stop paying $500+ per month in platform fees
Need a professional system to track projects, contracts, and payments
Value direct control over their money and contractor relationships
Why we built this
We were spending thousands per year on Teamed to manage contractors who already had their own payment accounts. Every month felt like paying for a luxury we didn't need.
Wise, PayPal, and Payoneer handle payments beautifully. DocuSign handles contracts. Spreadsheets track... well, they try. But there was no single system to organize, manage, and operate a freelancer-focused business without a middleman taking a cut.
So we built Kontrable. A tool that gives you the structure of an EOR platform—contractor database, project tracking, compliance tools, payment history—without the £55/contractor/month price tag or the money flowing through someone else first.
Your contractors. Your payments. Your control.
