Homebase drops Hiring Assistant per-post pricing for $99/mo flat rate, ex...
What happened
Between the Aug 31, 2026 and Sep 7, 2026 captures of Homebase's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Hiring Assistant add-on switched from per-post usage pricing ("Starting at $30/post") to a flat $99/month subscription billed annually; BETA label also removed. Pulse files it as a packaging change (add-on change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 19, 2026) lists Essentials at $24, Plus at $56, All-in-One at $96, Background Checks at $30 per background check and Payroll at $49.
It lands 21 days after Homebase's previous change, "Homebase: Payroll add-on price decrease ($49→$39/mo)" (Aug 17, 2026). Before that Pulse recorded "Homebase hikes payroll add-on fee to $49/month, keeps per-employee rate" (Jul 27, 2026) and "Homebase: 3-month free payroll promo ended" (Jul 20, 2026). Homebase has been tracked since 2026-06-25.
In the same window Workleap, Wagepoint, Tracker, Time Doctor and SimInsights also changed their Workforce Management pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
