Anastasis charges a flat 15% platform fee on the labor amount approved on each timesheet. The fee covers the platform itself: time tracking, the desktop agent, evidence storage, dispute tooling, and contractor payouts.
Who pays the fee
By default, the contractor pays the platform fee. It comes out of the approved labor amount, so the client’s invoice is the same as the approved amount, and the contractor’s payout is the approved amount minus 15%.
A client can choose to cover the fee at approval time. When that toggle is on:
- The contractor receives the full approved amount.
- The client is charged the approved amount plus 15%.
This is per-timesheet, not per-engagement — clients can decide one timesheet at a time.
Worked example
Say a contractor submits a timesheet for $1,000 of approved labor.
| Who pays the fee | Contractor net | Client total |
|---|---|---|
| Contractor (default) | $850 | $1,000 |
| Client | $1,000 | $1,150 |
When the fee applies
The fee applies only to labor that ends in APPROVED state. If a timesheet is declined, reopened, or disputed, the disputed timesheet is not ready for payout and the fee is calculated only after the final approved amount is resolved.
