Compensation benchmarking and market pricing for entire job families
CompTool is the market pricing tool built by compensation analysts: blend your salary surveys, age them to your effective date, and price whole job families in every market you operate in, worldwide, at once.
Multi-match
Market price entire job families at once
Find a market match for a Financial Analyst I, and CompTool finds it for every level above, up to your VP of Finance. Multi-match prices entire job families, in every labor market you operate in around the world, in one pass.
With the time it saves, you’ll have time to explain to your VP of Engineering why a new job with three years of experience probably isn’t a Senior Engineering Fellow.
- Match once, price the whole family
- Price jobs globally, across all your major surveys, at once
- Rule-based pricing keeps every analyst consistent
“That whole subfamily… that was so quick.”
AI-assisted matching
AI recommends market matches from your own surveys
CompTool reviews each job’s content and recommends the closest market matches from the salary surveys in your survey library, ranked by how well they fit.
Instead of paging through survey after survey, your analysts start with the best candidates and spend their time deciding, not searching. Matching jobs gets faster and easier, and your team approves every match before it’s used.
- Matches come from the surveys you license
- Recommendations ranked by fit to the job’s content
- Your team reviews and approves every match
Blend and age
Blend your surveys and age them to your effective date
Build benchmarks from multiple salary survey sources, weight them the way your policy says, and age the data whether you lead, lag or lead/lag the market.
Global surveys rarely share an effective date. CompTool ages each survey from its own effective date, at the rate you set for its country, so every market lands on the same date.
- Manage every survey you license in one library
- Blend surveys and Squirrel data with your own weights
- Age each global survey from its own effective date
- Set aging rates by country or survey
“By weaving Squirrel’s live market insights into our traditional annual benchmarking, we can truly begin to see a full picture, while understanding the shape of the market as it shifts.”
