Market Salary and Compensation Researcher

How It Works

Give your Claw a role title, level, and location. It pulls salary data

from Glassdoor, Levels.fyi, PayScale, LinkedIn Salary, and other sources,

then delivers a comprehensive compensation picture: base, bonus, equity,

and total comp ranges.

What You Get

• Base salary range: 25th, 50th (median), and 75th percentile
• Total compensation: base + bonus + equity + benefits estimate
• Company-specific data when available (from Glassdoor, Levels.fyi)
• Location adjustment: how the same role pays in different cities
• Experience adjustment: how compensation scales with years
• Comparison across 3+ data sources for confidence
• Your target number: a recommended ask based on your experience level

Setup Steps

1. Tell your Claw: role title, seniority level, and location
2. Optionally share the specific company name for targeted data
3. Review the compensation research
4. Use the data to set your salary expectations and negotiation floor

Tips

• Always check 3+ sources — no single salary site is perfectly accurate
• Total compensation matters more than base — equity and bonus can add 20-50%
• Location matters hugely — the same role can pay 40% more in SF vs. Austin
• Know your number before the first interview — some ask early
• If they ask "what are your salary expectations?" give a range, not a single number
• Use this data to detect lowball offers before the negotiation stage
