Methodology

How the estimate works

Data

Official wage survey

We use the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (May 2025): pay percentiles for 830 occupations, nationally and in every state.

Adjust

Your state and experience

We start from the pay distribution for your job in your state. Experience moves your expected spot within it, from around the 25th percentile for new hires to the 70th for 15+ years.

Compare

Score and gap

Your pay score is your total pay divided by the midpoint for your profile, times 100. The gap is the distance from your pay to the middle and top of your range.

Is this accurate?

It is an estimate, not a verdict. Pay also depends on company size, industry, city, skills and performance, which the survey does not capture for individuals. Treat the result as a starting point for research and conversation.

Do you store my salary?

No. The calculation runs in your browser. We only receive your email if you choose to send it.

What counts as pay?

BLS wages include base pay, commissions and production bonuses, and tips. They exclude overtime premiums, benefits and stock. Enter base salary plus regular bonus or commission.

My job isn't listed.
