How we price
Pricing should put us on the same side of the table. We charge a fixed monthly fee. Not by the hour. Not by the transaction. Not by the question. Your fee covers the agreed scope within your chosen hubs, the ongoing work, the advice, the alerts and the reporting set out in your proposal. Routine questions and issues within that scope don't start an hourly meter.
When a provider bills by the hour, more hours means more revenue, the provider is paid more when things take longer or go wrong. A fixed fee works the other way. Preventing problems and building systems that run well is in our interest as much as yours.
Four hubs. One fixed fee. Tailored to you.

A fixed monthly fee covers the agreed scope in the hubs you engage. What changes the price is set out below.
What changes the price
Four things determine your fixed monthly fee.
Business size
Fees are based on the number of employees and the complexity of the business.
The hubs you engage
You pay only for the hubs you need, and each is priced on the service level you choose within it.
One hub or several
A combined engagement costs less than the same hubs engaged separately, one advisor, shared context, less duplicated work.
All-inclusive fee
Setup, onboarding, advice and alerts are covered by the fixed monthly fee. No hourly charges on top.
How your fee is set
Your fee depends on business size, complexity and which hubs you engage, set as one fixed monthly amount, agreed upfront.
A single hub costs considerably less. Many clients start with one, Finance and People are the most common, and add hubs when they're ready. Either way, your quote states the exact fixed fee before you commit to anything.
Better together.
When you engage two or more hubs, the integrated data and shared advisor relationship creates compounding value. We reflect this in our pricing: the combination costs less than the same hubs engaged separately.
This isn't a promotional discount. It's the actual value we deliver when Finance, People, Operations, and Growth work together through a single Trusted Advisor. One view of your business. One person watching the whole picture.
What's included in every engagement
Dedicated Trusted Advisor
Your single point of contact and strategic advisor
Scheduled reviews with your advisor
30 to 60 minutes with your Trusted Advisor on performance, priorities and what’s coming
Proactive alerts and compliance monitoring
We flag issues before they become problems

Dashboard access with real-time visibility

True flexibility. We earn your business every month.

What this looks like in practice
A Melbourne construction company came to Valont with 35 employees, payroll across three Awards, and a bookkeeper months behind on reconciliation. They engaged the Finance and People hubs. The books were brought current and kept current, compliance penalties were avoided, and back-office costs came down because several separate providers became one engagement.
