Osome
- 2026-07-27: Osome launched a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, giving founders a way to query business data directly through AI assistants instead of logging into the Osome dashboard.
- The MCP server connects to Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini, letting users retrieve transactions, shareholder records, financial reports, and other company data through natural-language requests to their AI tool of choice.
- Osome positioned the release around Singapore's growing base of AI-native founders and solopreneurs, framing it as infrastructure for company management workflows that already run through an AI assistant rather than a browser tab.
- No pricing change was found alongside this release. Osome's core accounting, incorporation, and compliance service tiers were unchanged in this window.

Talenox
- Effective 2026-01-05: Talenox retired its permanent free plan and moved to per-employee paid pricing across all tiers. The change was announced on Talenox's own blog under the headline "Important: Talenox Pricing Changes Starting Today."
- New Single App tier (Payroll or Leave alone): SGD 25/month covering the first 5 active employees, plus SGD 5/month per additional full-time employee and SGD 2.50/month per part-timer.
- New SUITE tier (Payroll + Leave bundled): SGD 40/month for the first 5 staff, plus SGD 8/month per additional full-time employee and SGD 4/month per part-timer.
- Global (non-SGD) pricing for the SUITE plan starts at USD 20/month for the first 5 employees, plus USD 4/month per additional full-time employee. Annual billing carries roughly a 15% discount over monthly.
- New signups still get a 30-day free trial of the full SUITE plan with no credit card required, but there is no longer a permanent no-cost tier.

Sprout Solutions
- Sprout Solutions has an AI-powered payroll feature, Payroll Sidekick, in development to support multi-company payroll processing for Philippine businesses running more than one legal entity. Coverage describing it as launching "soon" appeared in company-linked articles published in May 2026; no exact ship date or pricing has been published as of this cycle.
- Payroll Sidekick sits alongside Sprout's existing AI tools, including Sprout Info, Concierge, and HR Link, which are already live inside the platform to speed up routine HR and payroll tasks.
- Sprout continues to market its payroll engine as built specifically for Philippine statutory compliance (government filings, contributions, and payslip generation) rather than an offshore product adapted for local rules.
- No subscription pricing change was found for Sprout's existing Payroll or HR modules in this window.

Coverage note
One exact, dated pricing change this cycle: Talenox's 2026-01-05 move off its free tier to per-employee billing. Osome's MCP server (2026-07-27) is a feature release with no pricing impact. Sprout Solutions' Payroll Sidekick is a disclosed but undated upcoming feature; treat it as roadmap, not shipped product, until Sprout publishes a release date.
