How is The EOR Index different from G2, Capterra and Trustpilot ratings?
Review sites show lifetime star averages that can include reviews from years ago. The EOR Index scores the text of reviews published in the last 31 days only, and adds off-market practitioner conversations that review sites never see, so it reflects what EOR buyers are experiencing now. Star ratings are not inputs.

What is The EOR Index?
The EOR Index is an independent monthly index that scores the text sentiment of public customer reviews of employer-of-record (EOR) providers published in the last calendar month. Each provider gets a score from 0 to 5 to one decimal place, published with its sample size. A companion series, The EOR Index Field Sentiment, labels named feelings in practitioner language from practitioner channels including off-market communities.
How is the score calculated?
Each review published in the calendar month is scored for sentiment from −1 to 1 using its text. A provider’s score is round((mean sentiment + 1) × 2.5, 1), which maps −1..1 onto 0..5. The category index is the unweighted mean of scored providers. Star ratings are not inputs. Ties are ordered by the number of reviews.
Can a provider pay to be ranked higher?
No. Placement on The EOR Index cannot be bought. Scores come only from the monthly data.
How often is it updated?

The November 2026 edition is dated 2026-11-03, with a reporting window of 1 October 2026 to 31 October 2026. Archived editions stay at /p/YYYY-MM and corrections are dated. Historical editions were retrospectively aligned to this schedule from publisher-supplied monthly data.
