INGREDIENTS
PROMPT
Research the salary for this role and give me a comprehensive compensation picture. Role: [title] Level: [entry / mid / senior / lead / director / VP] Location: [city/state or remote] Company (optional): [company name] My years of experience: [number] Pull data from Glassdoor, Levels.fyi, PayScale, LinkedIn Salary, and other relevant public sources where available. Give me: (1) Base salary range: 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile when the source supports it. (2) Total comp range including bonus and equity estimates. (3) How experience level affects the range. (4) Location comparison: how this role pays in 2-3 other comparable cities. (5) Company-specific data if available. (6) Source confidence: how much data is behind each number and where uncertainty is high. (7) My recommended target: based on my experience level, what should I ask for?
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
- Tell your Claw: role title, seniority level, and location
- Optionally share the specific company name for targeted data
- Review the compensation research
- 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
