Compliancy Group pricing
Four tiers, published openly — which is more than most of this category does. Two things the headline numbers do not say: every tier adds a per-employee fee on top, and every figure shown is the annually-billed one. Below is what they publish, what it actually totals, and where we differ.
Figures read from Compliancy Group’s own pricing page on . We are a competitor — check them against the source before you rely on them.
The four tiers, as published
| Tier | Base | Per employee | Admins | Locations |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | $99/mo | +$8/mo | 1 admin | 2 locations |
| Growth | $249/mo | +$10/mo | 5 admins | 10 locations |
| Advanced | $449/mo | +$10/mo | 10 admins | 15 locations |
| Elite | $449/mo | +$10/mo | 15 admins | Unlimited locations |
All four are marked “starting at” and “billed annually”. The base and per-employee rates did not change when we switched their team-size selector between bands. The page advertises yearly billing as up to 30% off, so a monthly-billed price is higher than these figures — it does not display one, so budget above rather than at these numbers.
- Foundation
- Policies, employee attestation, training content, basic hotline reporting, resource library.
- Growth
- Everything in Foundation, plus the risk assessment module, vendor and BAA management, exclusion and sanction screening, employee portal and hotline routing.
- Advanced
- Everything in Growth, plus full LMS with custom course upload, third-party policy uploads, a custom assessment builder and hotline branding.
- Elite
- Everything in Advanced, plus HRIS integration support, a dedicated account manager, a support SLA and volume employee discounts. Listed as “Get in Touch”.
What it totals once headcount is in
Monthly cost at the published rates, billed annually, before any add-on. The per-employee fee is what moves these, not the tier.
| Tier | 10 employees | 25 employees | 50 employees |
|---|---|---|---|
| Foundation | $179/mo | $299/mo | $499/mo |
| Growth | $349/mo | $499/mo | $749/mo |
| Advanced | $549/mo | $699/mo | $949/mo |
The gating is the thing to look at, not the base price
On their own comparison table, three modules sit on Growth and above: the risk assessment module, vendor and BAA management, and employee exclusion and sanction screening.
Those are not optional extras. The risk analysis is required at 45 CFR 164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A) and is the single most-cited failure in OCR’s enforcement history. Vendor agreements are required at 164.502(e). Exclusion screening is a payment condition for anyone billing federal health care programmes. Foundation at $99 is a training and policy product; the compliance programme starts at Growth. Read the entry price as $249 plus $10 per employee.

How we compare, in both directions
We charge $79 a month per organization ($66 billed annually) with up to 15 staff seats included, and $149 for unlimited seats. There is no per-employee fee, and the risk assessment, vendor and BAA register, and OIG exclusion screening are all in the base — the three modules that sit above Foundation on their side.
At ten employees that is $349 a month against $79, for the programme itself. We think that gap is the honest headline, and it is why this page exists.
What they have that we do not
Bundled training courseware — HIPAA, OSHA, HR, cybersecurity, ethics — with continuing education credits, plus an incident hotline and, higher up, a full LMS with custom course upload. We record training completion; we do not author the courses. If you need the courseware or the hotline, that is a real reason to choose them and we will not pretend otherwise.
What we have that they gate
Risk assessment, vendor and BAA management and exclusion screening in the base rather than at Growth. Incident logging with breach-notification deadlines computed, rather than a $399 add-on. A HIPAA to SOC 2 and NIST CSF crosswalk, rather than a $299 add-on. Per-client pricing if you are an MSP. And no per-employee fee at all.
Common questions
- How much does Compliancy Group cost?
- As published on their pricing page, four tiers starting at $99, $249, $449 and $449 per month, each billed annually and each adding a per-employee fee on top — $8 per employee per month on Foundation and $10 on the other three. The headline figure is therefore not the number you pay: a ten-person practice on Growth is $249 plus $100, or $349 a month. The page advertises yearly billing as up to 30% off, so paying monthly costs more than the figures shown; it does not display the monthly rate.
- Why does the price jump so much between Foundation and Growth?
- Because of where the modules sit. Foundation is policies, attestation, training content and basic hotline reporting. The risk assessment module, vendor and BAA management, and exclusion and sanction screening are all Growth-and-up features on their comparison table. Those three are not extras — the risk analysis is required at 45 CFR 164.308(a)(1)(ii)(A), vendor agreements at 164.502(e), and exclusion screening is a payment condition for anyone billing federal health care programmes. So for most organizations the real entry point is Growth rather than Foundation.
- Does Compliancy Group charge per employee?
- Yes, on every tier, and it is the part that moves the total most. $8 per employee per month on Foundation, $10 on Growth, Advanced and Elite. Elite lists volume discounts for employees; the others do not. This is worth modelling before you compare headline numbers against any per-organization price, because the two pricing shapes diverge sharply as headcount grows.
- What is not included in the subscription?
- Three things are sold separately at the time of our review: Incident Management at $399 a month, the Advanced Program Library — their multi-framework control crosswalk — at $299 a month, and an Audit Response Program with no published price. Incident logging in particular is worth checking against your own needs, since documenting incidents including the ones you assess as not reportable is what the burden of proof at 45 CFR 164.414(b) expects.
- Is Compliancy Group worth it?
- It depends on what you are buying. They ship a large amount of training courseware — HIPAA, OSHA, HR, cybersecurity, sexual harassment and ethics, with continuing education credits — plus an incident hotline and, above Foundation, an LMS. If you need the courseware and the hotline, that is real value and we do not offer it. If what you need is the compliance programme itself — assessment, remediation tracking, policies, agreements, screening and an evidence pack — you are paying for a training library alongside it.
