Real-time pay data is changing the game
Don't take our word for it. Listen to what our happy customers have to say about using Market Data Lite to make smarter compensation decisions with real-time data.
The half-life of compensation data is weeks, not years
Annual compensation surveys were designed for a stable labor market. Today's competition for talent is anything but that.
When top AI researchers, ML engineers, and SWEs are moving between frontier labs, hyperscalers, and well-funded startups every quarter, compensation data from last year isn't benchmarking — it's a history lesson.
Pave is the real-time compensation infrastructure built for this moment. We're not a better, faster survey. We're a much-needed replacement. If you're serious about competing for top talent, join the 8,700-plus companies already making smarter pay decisions with Pave.
We're here to power your pay decisions, not nickle and dime you
Most survey providers charge you by the data point. Job modules, countries, peer group reporting, and extra features all come with additional price tags.
And before you know it, you're paying $100,000 or more in fees for stale benchmarks from last year. No one should ever have to make a business case like this to their CFO again.
Pave doesn't work this way. When you sign up for Market Data Lite, you'll get immediate access to data spanning 250+ job families in the overall U.S. and one additional market of your choice.
If you choose to upgrade, one simple price covers everything Market Data Pro has to offer — 250+ job families, 150+ countries and metros, more pay types, peer group reporting, and all other features.
Better benchmarks start with seeing everything
Compensation surveys fail because they're incomplete by design. An annual survey captures what companies choose to submit — summarized figures, approximate role mappings, data that's already months old.
The outlier offer made to land a critical software engineer doesn't make it in. Neither does the equity refresh that changed the retention equation at a frontier AI lab last quarter. Those details get skipped, and because they're missing, the benchmark you're using is wrong.
Pave is infrastructure, not a survey. We connect directly with HCM and equity management systems at 8,700-plus companies. Every offer, every promotion, every equity grant, every compensation adjustment flows in automatically.
This is the reason Pave is more accurate. When you see every data point, instead of the select ones companies choose to surface, the picture of the market is fundamentally different.
Access equity insights no survey can ever match
Elite candidates with multiple job offers, whether they work in sales or R&D, aren't solely focused on base pay. They're comparing new-hire awards against their unvested equity holdings, and evaluating the impact of cliff timing and refresh cadence on their long-term earnings potential.
Pave connects directly with equity management systems to capture what surveys structurally can't: every unique grant. This unleashes new benchmarks to power your equity strategy, including incredibly robust and detailed information on new-hire grants.
When a frontier AI lab restructures its equity program to shake up the market, you'll see what this means in Pave immediately, not a year from now.

Learn more about free compensation data
Free salary information is available in many locations online; however, it is often crowd-sourced, ancedotal, and inaccurate. The most reliable free compensation data comes directly from companies via direct connections to their HR systems of record. This is how Pave works.
Compensation benchmark data helps startups make competitive job offers with confidence. Reliable data also helps companies avoid legal issues related to gender pay gaps and other pay discrepancies. Data also supports consistency and transparency as teams scale quickly.
To use free compensation data effectively, filter benchmarks by company size, industry, and growth stage, then combine salary and equity insights to evaluate total compensation. This ensures offers are competitive while staying aligned with your budget and long-term equity strategy.
Pave supports integrations with leading HRIS, ATS, and equity management systems, including Workday, ADP, BambooHR, Greenhouse, Rippling, Shareworks, E*Trade, and more. Visit Pave’s Integrations Page (link below) for a complete and up-to-date list of supported integration partners.
