The breakeven math

Flex per-seat-month aggregates to a 3-year cost of $11,520 per seat. Equivalent lease economics are the sum of base rent + opex + amortised fit-out">fit-out. The Lease vs Flex Comparator runs both at the same horizon.

When flex wins

Short horizons (under 24 months), uncertain headcount trajectory, satellite or project-based teams, requirement under 30 seats. Flex also wins on optionality — month-to-month exits versus a 10-year termination negotiation.

When lease wins

Long horizons (5+ years), stable headcount, brand requirement, hardware-heavy team, or any requirement above ~50 seats in a market with active landlord competition.
