Frequently asked questions

Where does your compensation data come from?

OpenComp data comes directly from our thousands of customers.

The OpenComp data set is unmatched in its specificity to small and medium businesses. Every input undergoes rigorous vetting from a team of compensation experts.

How to Differentiate Between Good & Bad Comp Data

What stages of funding are in your data set?
