Six reasons agencies choose Arpixa
The differences that show up in everyday client work — not just on a feature checklist.
A free plan without a 5-invoice ceiling
Arpixa's permanent free plan runs a real client engagement end to end. Agiled's free plan caps at 5 invoices, 2 projects and 2 clients — useful for testing, but not for running an active client relationship.
Free plan that worksGet paid globally and in India
Arpixa ships dual Stripe and Razorpay rails for global and India-first billing. Agiled connects Stripe, PayPal and Mollie, but has no native Razorpay support.
Stripe + RazorpayBranded client portal, no add-on fee
Arpixa's branded client portal is built into every plan, including free. Agiled gates its branded client portal and custom domain behind the $19/month add-on on Starter and Pro, or the $99/month Business plan.
Portal from the startAI Drafts without counting credits
Arpixa’s AI Drafts help prepare proposals, briefs, replies and summaries with full review control, included in your plan. Agiled meters AI use with credits — 500 on Starter, rising to 15,000 on Scale — so heavy AI use can mean an upgrade.
AI included, no credit meterAdd teammates without re-pricing
Arpixa Pro includes unlimited collaborators at $29/month. Agiled’s tiers are seat-bounded — Starter is 1 seat, Pro 3, Business 7, Scale 15 — with extra seats at $20/month each beyond that.
No per-seat penalty for growthValidate the workflow before you pay
A permanent free plan plus a $12/month Starter lets you prove the client workflow with real work before committing — no invoice or project ceiling to hit mid-engagement.
Start free, stay simplePlan-by-plan pricing
Arpixa starts free and scales from $12/month with no per-seat penalty until Advanced. Agiled\u2019s tiers are seat-bounded, with the branded client portal gated behind an add-on or the Business tier.

Where each platform pulls ahead
Beyond the checkmarks — how the two products actually feel, including the area Agiled wins.
A free plan you can actually run a client on
Both platforms have a free plan, but they behave very differently in practice. Arpixa's free tier supports 1 active client per month with core features, a one-time AI trial and 500 MB storage — enough to run a real engagement. Agiled's free plan is capped at 5 invoices, 2 projects and 2 clients total, which most active client relationships exceed within the first month or two.
- Arpixa free: 1 active client/month, 2 collaborators, no invoice ceiling.
- Agiled free: hard caps at 5 invoices, 2 projects, 2 clients, 1 seat.
- Agiled’s next tier, Starter, is $29/month before you get more room.
HR, AI Workers and a wider module list
Credit where it's due: Agiled bundles more modules than Arpixa does today. It includes HR tools (attendance, leave, salary records), autonomous AI Workers on its Scale tier, commerce and subscriptions, and QuickBooks/Xero accounting sync — a broader operating-system scope for teams that need HR alongside client delivery.
- Employee directory, attendance tracking and leave management built in.
- AI Workers that execute multi-step tasks autonomously on the Scale tier.
- QuickBooks or Xero sync, plus commerce and subscription billing on higher tiers.
A portal built in, not bolted on
Arpixa's branded client portal — timeline, deliverables, files, invoices, payments and messages — is available on every plan, including free. Agiled gates its branded client portal behind a $19/month add-on on Starter and Pro, or requires the $99/month Business plan to get it included.
- Arpixa’s portal ships free; Agiled’s costs extra below the Business tier.
- Per-section visibility keeps internal notes private while sharing the work.
- A custom domain follows the same pattern: free on Arpixa Advanced, add-on or Business+ on Agiled.
Get paid the way your clients pay
Arpixa ships both Stripe and Razorpay payment paths, making it a strong fit for teams billing globally and across India. Agiled connects Stripe, PayPal and Mollie for online payments, but does not offer a native Razorpay rail.
- Stripe powers card payments on invoices for both platforms.
- Razorpay support in Arpixa simplifies India-first and INR billing.
- Agiled’s Mollie integration covers strong European payment method coverage instead.

Still weighing it up? Here's what teams ask
Straight answers to the questions that come up most when choosing between Arpixa and Agiled.
Agiled is a broad all-in-one business management platform that adds HR, commerce and autonomous AI Workers to its CRM, invoicing and project tools, priced per seat starting at $29/month. Arpixa is an AI-native agency operating system with a genuinely usable permanent free plan, a branded client portal on every plan, a Lead Inbox, and dual Stripe + Razorpay payments, starting at $12/month Starter. Agiled leads on module breadth (HR, commerce); Arpixa leads on the client-facing workflow, the free plan and portal availability.
On entry pricing and on the free plan, yes. Arpixa has a permanent free plan usable for real client work, then $12/month Starter. Agiled’s free plan is capped at 5 invoices, 2 projects and 2 clients, and its first paid tier, Starter, is $29/month for a single seat. Both charge more to unlock automations, a client portal, or additional seats, so compare based on the specific limits you’ll hit.
Yes. Agiled bundles HR tools (employee directory, attendance, leave management, salary records), autonomous AI Workers on its Scale tier, commerce and subscription billing, and QuickBooks/Xero accounting sync. If you need HR and accounting integration alongside client delivery in one tool, Agiled’s scope goes beyond what Arpixa offers today.
Agiled has a free plan, but it is capped at 5 invoices, 2 projects, 2 clients and 1 seat — limits most active client relationships exceed quickly. Arpixa’s free plan supports 1 active client per month with core features and no invoice ceiling, making it usable for genuine ongoing client work.
Arpixa includes both Stripe and Razorpay payment paths, so teams can collect card payments globally and INR payments through Razorpay. Agiled connects Stripe, PayPal and Mollie for online payments, but does not offer a native Razorpay rail.
Arpixa is built around connected client, project, invoice and file records, so core CRM and project data maps cleanly from Agiled. Agiled-specific modules like HR and commerce do not have a direct Arpixa equivalent, so plan what to keep versus retire. For complex setups, contact hello@arpixa.io for guidance.
Both offer one, but availability differs. Arpixa’s portal is included on every plan, including free. Agiled requires a $19/month add-on on its Starter or Pro plans, or the $99/month Business plan, to get a branded client portal with a custom domain included.
For most solo operators and small studios, Arpixa is the lighter lift: a usable permanent free plan, then $12/month Starter with no per-seat penalty as you take on collaborators. Agiled’s Starter is $29/month for a single seat, and you’ll likely need Pro ($69/month, 3 seats) or Business ($119/month, 7 seats, with the portal included) as you grow.
Arpixa is AI-native rather than AI-bolted-on. It can draft proposals, briefs, replies and summaries from your workspace context, and you keep full review control before anything is sent, included in your plan. Agiled meters AI usage with credits (500 on Starter up to 15,000 on Scale) and offers autonomous AI Workers on its top tier for multi-step task execution.
Arpixa is month-to-month, with annual billing available for a lower effective rate. There is no long lock-in — you can upgrade, downgrade or cancel as your client load changes. Agiled offers a 14-day free trial of its Business features and a 14-day refund window on paid plans, with no long-term contract required. Confirm current terms on each vendor’s pricing page before subscribing.
