15Five's $11/user/month Perform plan and $16/user/month Total Platform plan give agencies a per-seat recurring revenue stream that scales with client headcount, not project scope. Since the tool is built for internal people operations rather than white-label resale, agencies win by packaging implementation and ongoing managed services around it, turning a $2,500 setup into a long-term retainer relationship.
