Payroll packaging
This prevents customers from confusing employee pay visibility with the governed payroll run engine or the premium Compliance Control Tower add-on.
Growth+
Employees see pay clarity from approved payroll outputs and snapshots. This is visibility, not payroll processing.
Pro
Governed payroll runs use active India Payroll Rule Pack records, employee statutory setup, salary inputs, attendance/leave inputs, approval, and immutable lock.
Pro add-on
Adds official-source monitoring, CA interpretation, payroll impact previews, evidence packs, and Why Payroll Changed audit trails.
Optional AI add-on
Keep the core HRMS bill predictable. Add AI only for teams that need explain, summarize, prioritize, prepare, and route assistance inside Orbit workflows.
Billing formula
Base plan + optional AI add-on + optional compliance add-on
AI usage is not bundled into Starter, Growth, or Pro employee prices.
AI Assist
₹39 / employee / month
Available on Growth and Pro as a governed add-on
Quick Assist
High-volume explain and route help for employee, manager, and admin surfaces.
Routes and explains only.
Careful Review
Preparation and review-grade summaries for manager, admin, and HR workflows.
Human workflow confirmation remains required.
Guarded Review
Reserved lane for payroll, compliance, and other high-trust advisory work.
Reserved for human-reviewed outputs; compliance AI additionally requires Control Tower.
Important boundary
AI can explain, summarize, prioritize, prepare drafts, and route users to existing workflows. It cannot silently approve, activate compliance rules, run payroll, issue documents, or bypass role permissions.
Current activation state
AI is activated only after Rudraix configures the governed gateway, approved provider keys, active add-on entitlement, and budget limits server-side.
Not unlimited by default
Larger AI envelopes are expanded intentionally by contract. Orbit does not hide variable AI cost inside the base HRMS plans.
Pro add-on
India Compliance Control Tower helps CA/admin teams review official-source changes, preview payroll impact, and preserve compliance evidence before activation.
It is not required for baseline payroll execution. Payroll execution uses active approved India Payroll Rule Pack records; Control Tower governs future rule changes and audit evidence.
Requires Pro + India Compliance Control Tower add-on.

FAQ
No. Starter, Growth, and Pro are core employee-management plans. Governed AI Assist is priced separately so teams do not confuse HRMS pricing with AI usage.
Total price is the base employee plan plus any optional add-ons you activate, such as Governed AI Assist or India Compliance Control Tower.
Governed AI Assist includes one overall monthly request and INR budget envelope, plus reserved intent lanes for Quick Assist, Careful Review, and Guarded Review. This keeps low-cost usage from exhausting the budget reserved for higher-trust work.
Payroll clarity is included from Growth onward. It uses approved payroll lines and payroll snapshots. Governed payroll execution is a Pro capability and requires completed payroll setup.
No. Payroll execution uses active approved India Payroll Rule Pack records and company payroll setup. Compliance Control Tower is the premium governance add-on for source monitoring, CA review, impact preview, and evidence.
Payroll execution can still be blocked until employee statutory profiles, verified bank/KYC, salary inputs, attendance and leave inputs, and active India Payroll Rule Pack records are ready. TDS stays unavailable until tax declaration/proof setup is approved and locked.
No. Reports and exports are Pro features, alongside observability, audit logs, admin readiness, and the advanced activity timeline.
No. Manager cockpit and advanced approval flows are available on Growth and Pro. Starter keeps core employee operations visible without the advanced approval engine surfaces.
Yes. Plan storage and feature gating are centralized so teams can move from Starter to Growth or Pro and request add-ons without changing the product structure.
Yes. The demo workspace runs on Pro plan sample data and shows only features wired to seeded demo records.

Payment gateway integration is intentionally not enabled here. Pricing display, plan storage, and centralized feature gating are ready for a future billing integration.
