About this check
- How does the "Am I Underpaid?" check work?
- You pick a role and enter your annual pay. We compare it to the disclosed salaries on currently active AI job listings for that role, then show your percentile - the share of listed roles paying at or below your figure - and how far you sit from the median.
- What is this compared against?
- Only disclosed pay on live AI job postings indexed by Kairos, annualized and kept to a single currency. It is not a self-reported salary survey, government data, or a broader labor-market estimate - it reflects what employers are actually advertising right now.
- Why can't it check my role?
- Any role or seniority with fewer than 8 disclosed salaries is suppressed, so a thin sample never produces a misleading verdict. Try "all levels" or check back as more roles post their pay.
- Does entering my salary save anything?
- No. There's no signup and nothing is stored. Your pay is only used to compute the percentile for this page view.
