PeopleMuster vs Kantata
Kantata calls itself a Professional Services Automation Platform and prices through a Request Pricing form. PeopleMuster publishes one price: $3 per person a month for every module, from the first person.

Why teams choose PeopleMuster
- You can read the price today. Multiply your headcount by $3 and that's the monthly bill, every module included.
- Leave and delivery share one record. Approve a week off and that week drops out of the person's capacity row at once.
- Utilisation comes from real hours. People log time daily by project, managers approve it, and the report splits by person, project and department with a week-over-week trend.
- Projects carry health, setup and task scores, billable and fixed-price or hourly flags, and milestones, so a quiet project shows up in the weekly review.
- Meeting transcripts from Fireflies file against the right client project, with AI-derived risk signals for leadership. An admin can edit, version and re-run the prompt behind them.
- We set it up with you: your modules, your roles, your people.
