The platform processes 1.2 million shifts per week and holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and GDPR compliance certifications, with native integrations into SAP, Workday, and POS systems.

Legion monetizes through enterprise SaaS subscriptions priced on workforce size with multi-year annual contracts and a quote-based pricing model (no public price list).
