How to read seat-cost figures on Leverwork

5 min read

Calculator outputs are labor-cost comparisons, not quoted outcomes. Your 20-minute assessment estimates the figures for your roles.

Who this is for

Owners weighing Standard who want to understand the difference between calculator inputs, assessment figures, and SOW commitments.

What is true

  • Buyer is the owner, not ops/IT.
  • Leverwork serves owner shops of 20–80 headcount.
  • Calculator outputs are labor-cost comparisons, not audited client outcomes.
  • Fee/work-pause canon only: if Leverwork misses the agreed scope, work pauses and fees stop. That is not “recover setup fee within 90 days” or “work free.” See what the fee/work pause means.
  • Standard: Target go-live: about 30 days from kickoff. Your timeline is set in your SOW. Compare tiers in Standard vs Complex.
  • Dollar amounts are not published. Talk to us for current pricing. Terms and llms.txt are the alignment surfaces.

What is not true

  • Do not reintroduce free-audit / free consultation language; the door is the 20-minute /book/ assessment.
  • Use the fixed-price setup plus monthly retainer scoped on the 20-minute call; do not infer a quote from calculator output.
