Socket extra fees: Socket charges extra for advanced functionality. ‘Pro Features’ and ‘Socket Engage’ is included in this example.

GoProposal assumptions: We estimate required plans based on around 0.1 proposals per client per month (e.g. 100 clients ≈ 10 proposals, so Basic). Pricing also assumes an extra £40 per user above the users included in each plan (Solo: 1 user, Basic: 1, Standard: 2, Premium: 10).

*BrightManager assumptions: BrightManager pricing includes an estimated BrightPropose add-on based on the same proposal volume assumption of around 0.1 proposals per client per month. We map this to BrightPropose’s Basic (5 proposals, £50), Essentials (20, £100) or Advanced (35, £150) package and add that cost on top of the standard BrightManager per-user fee.

Other assumptions: All pricing is based on publicly available information as of 4 October 2026. Engager prices are +VAT a month. For more than 30,000 clients, contact contact@engager.app.

How Engager pricing works

One price for your whole practice

Engager is priced by the clients you look after, never by how many people use it.

Priced by clients, not users

Add your whole team at no extra cost. Your price only changes as your client base grows.

Every feature included

No feature tiers to compare. The smallest practice gets the same platform as the largest.

Optional Xero sync

Two-way client sync with Xero for an extra £4 a month, if you want it.

No card details required. Every feature included.
