Is OCTIS cheaper than Lark?
Yes. Send Lark's quote or your current bill on WhatsApp, and OCTIS prices the same work 10–30% lower than it. Every price comes with the Lowest Price Guarantee and a 30-day money-back guarantee, terms apply, and licensed professionals check every filing. There is no list price to compare against: your quote or bill is the starting point, so the saving is measured against what you would actually pay.
Does OCTIS replace Lark?

Is Lark available in Hong Kong?
Lark's pricing page says Lark Basic is not supported in Hong Kong SAR and tells customers in unsupported regions to contact sales for other plans. Confirm the plan and the payment currency with Lark before you buy.
Does OCTIS replace a statutory audit?
No. OCTIS coordinates the audit with a Hong Kong CPA practice; an independent licensed auditor signs the report.
Who provides the FX, card and business account?
Licensed partners provide them inside OCTIS. OCTIS is not a bank and does not issue cards itself.
