# Versatile

> India-native Employer of Record (EOR) for US and UK companies hiring engineers, designers, marketers, and operators in India. Not a reseller · we operate our own Indian entity (FOO FALCON TECH PRIVATE LIMITED), payroll registration (PF + ESIC + Shops and Establishments). Flat per-seat pricing in USD. 5-day onboarding. First month free.

## What we do

Versatile is an India-native EOR for US and UK startups. Most alternatives either (a) resell India hires through a partner entity (Deel, Multiplier, Remote act as marketplaces, not the legal employer) or (b) charge $400–$700/month per seat with hidden setup, exit, and FX fees. We charge $149/month flat per seat, first month free, no setup fee, no exit fee, invoice in USD, and manage Indian payroll, compliance, and statutory benefits on our own legal entity (Foo Falcon Technologies Pvt Ltd, CIN U72900KA2022PTC163007). Onboarding SLA: 5 business days from signed contract to live payroll.

## Who we serve

- **US founders** hiring their first or second India engineer
- **UK CTOs** scaling an offshore team without setting up an Indian entity
- **Series A–C startups** that need EOR cheaper than Deel without sacrificing compliance
- **People Ops leaders** consolidating EOR vendors after a Deel/Multiplier renewal
- **CFOs** running a cost-of-hire analysis on India vs Eastern Europe or Latin America
