The shape of the bill
Schematic · price vs. team size
Drawn from lib/billing/tiers — single source of truth
The free zone covers 0–4 people. The Manager line rises $19 for each person above that. Executive includes cross-team rollups and starts higher. No tier kicks in at a headcount you didn’t choose — the line is continuous.

Lattice and 15Five ask your team to fill out surveys and roll the answers up to HR. Sonar reads metadata you're already producing (timestamps, PR events, calendar shape) and writes a brief just for you. Different product, different audience, different posture. You can run both — Sonar is the morning-of, who-needs-a-conversation-today layer; Lattice is the quarterly review layer.
Each person on your team gets the same view you do at /me, with four buttons that work without a support ticket: pause, export, delete, push back. They see what was collected, which signals fired about them, and they can opt out per-source. We built /your-data as the page you can send your team before installing.
It will be, sometimes. Sonar shows patterns, not verdicts. Every signal links to the underlying activity (the actual PR, the calendar event, the message timestamps) so you can verify before you act. If it's wrong, dismiss it — your dismissals tune the model for your team. The conversation is still yours.
It depends on your tier. On Manager: each direct report you manage — the people whose signals Sonar covers. On Executive: each manager you oversee, not their full teams. A VP with 4 EMs each leading 8 engineers pays 4 seats, not 36. The manager account itself is always covered by the base fee.
Add the new person to Sonar and billing adjusts automatically, prorated to the day they were added. Same in reverse when someone leaves.
Yes. The free tier covers up to 4 team members with no credit card. Upgrade to Manager or Executive when you're ready — your data carries over.
Annual contracts and SSO are on the roadmap. Email yash@sonarwork.com to be on the early list.
Ready when you are
Setup takes two minutes. Sonar listens for fourteen days to learn each person’s normal. Then every weekday morning, the brief lands.
