What do I get from Build My LATAM Plan?

A decision document rather than a chat reply: the outcome restated, a market shortlist with statutory employer burden, one recommended engagement model with a credible alternative, landed cost per seat, the risks worth planning for, and a 30/60/90-day sequence you can forward internally.

Do I have to give an email to use the planner?

Yes, the planner is free. You add your name, company and work email so we can send you the finished plan and route it to the right specialist. That lets us route your plan to the LATAM specialist who owns those markets, and one identification unlocks every tool on the site.

Which engagement models can it recommend?

Agent of Record, contract staffing, employer of record, staff augmentation, direct hire and recruiting, RPO, fixed-scope SOW delivery, payroll only, in-country representation, and build-operate-transfer. It recommends one primary model and names one alternative, so you can see the trade-off rather than a single pitch.

Will it tell me when I should not use SILA?

Yes. The planner shows the per-seat and own-entity arithmetic side by side at your headcount, and names the point where a permanent base makes sense. SILA builds, transfers and operates that entity when you get there, so the plan holds either way.

How reliable are the costs?

Cost lines come from our published country salary bands and statutory employer burden ranges, not from the model's memory. They are planning estimates for budgeting, confirmed in writing by a specialist before anything is signed.

LATAM Workforce Planner · AI-assisted. Specialist-validated.

Your plan stays on screen as it builds

Three questions. Then a real answer.

Tell us the goal, the function and the market

You will see your recommended operating path, engagement model, market direction and launch sequence before we ask for anything else.

1. What is the goal?

2. Which role or function?

3. Which market?

Popular starting markets, not our coverage. SILA supports 20+ LATAM markets and you can select any of them, several of them, or let us recommend.

Pick a goal and name the role or function to see your result.

Or describe it in your own words

What is the operation today, and which functions are you adding next?

We already have your starting point: scale a LATAM operation you already run. Pick the closest example or type your own and the plan builds from there.

What to enter: the roles you need, roughly how many, and when you want them working. Country, seniority and engagement model are optional, we recommend those. What you get: market shortlist, recommended engagement model, landed cost per seat and a 30/60/90 plan, on screen in about three minutes.

Routes SILA runs for scaling an existing latam operation

Staff augmentation on top of your current team, same payroll date and manager
Employer of record for new countries or functions, without a second vendor stack
SILA-managed team for a new function you do not want to manage day to day

Your answers decide which one your plan locks in.

Building your recommendation… market, cost model and 30/60/90 plan. This usually takes 10 to 20 seconds, and the controls unlock the moment it lands.

What is a LATAM workforce plan?

A LATAM workforce plan states the outcome you need, the countries that can deliver it, the engagement model that fits (EOR, staffing, AOR, SOW, RPO or your own entity), the landed cost per seat including statutory employer burden, the compliance risks in each market, and the sequence to get the first people working. SILA produces one free in a few minutes using published country salary and burden data across 20+ Latin American markets.
