Real offers.
Not survey guesswork.

Traditional comp surveys are a year and a half stale by the time you read them. Ours reflects the offers we're negotiating this week.

Traditional comp survey

Old before you open it

  • Collected once a year, published months later
  • Self-reported ranges, often inflated
  • Base only — equity & bonus glossed over
  • Broad job families, not real titles
