How it works

FAQ
Is it free? I don’t see the pricing
It is free. However, usage is limited. We’ll contact you when you hit the limit and most likely extend the free use.
Does it work on all LinkedIn profiles?
No, now it works for Software Engineers in the USA only. We are planning to add other titles and locations later on.
Why only Software Engineers in the US?
We had to start from something particular, you know. The market for software engineers is still hot (despite all the tech layoffs) so we decided to start from it. Once we make our estimates as perfect as possible, we’ll move on to other markets.
Can I rely on your data? Is it accurate?
Unfortunately, we do not have oracles in our team. But our brilliant engineers were able to create an algorithm that estimates compensation packages as precisely as possible. There are 3 certainty levels displayed in the extension. Green means we are “quite certain” in our estimates. Yellow means “somehow certain” and Red means “Not so sure, but keep the number in mind”.
How we handle personal data and compliance
We don't collect and store candidates' data for our extension, so personal data regulations don't apply to our service. Instead, we show you dynamic salary estimates based on public data and computed via our ML algorithm.
Does it work on LinkedIn Recruiter / Lite versions?
Unfortunately not. Currently, it works only on public LinkedIn profiles. We’ll release other options soon.
