About Melororium and Plutio
Melororium is a flat-fee team workspace built for agencies, design studios, and service teams of 4–25 people. Unlike per-seat tools that charge more with every new hire, Melororium charges one flat monthly price for your whole team: no seat tax, no per-user billing, no cost increases as headcount grows. The workspace consolidates 12 core modules that most teams access through 3–5 separate subscriptions: kanban task management, native time tracking, client CRM, invoicing with PDF generation, work reports with time anomaly detection, live team timers, calendar, employee management, and integrations with Slack, Google Calendar, and AI tools. Melororium is not an enterprise platform and not a solo tool. It is purpose-built for teams of 4–25 that suffer most from per-seat pricing: large enough to need real collaboration features, small enough that every seat fee is genuinely felt. Plans: Starter $29/mo (4 users), Agency $59/mo (15 users), Studio $119/mo (25 users): all flat-fee, no seat tax.
