Salary benchmark

Is your offer market rate for this role, level, and location? We benchmark against current market data and tell you if you're at, above, or below market — and by how much.

📝

Signing bonus clawback

Most signing bonuses have clawback provisions: leave in under 1 year, repay 100%. Leave in under 2 years, repay 50%. We find these, flag the risk, and tell you what's standard.

📜

IP assignment scope

The clause most people miss. Does their IP assignment cover inventions you create outside work hours, on personal equipment, unrelated to their business? Many tech companies' boilerplate does. We flag it.

🚫

Non-compete and non-solicitation

State by state: California voids them, New York has new 2024 limits, Texas enforces. Duration, scope, enforceability. What you're actually agreeing to.

📈

Equity analysis

Is the RSU grant or options size market for this stage and role? Vesting schedule standard? Single/double trigger acceleration? The equity slide is where the most value is hidden or missing.

🗣️

Ask scripts

Specific language for each negotiation point. "I've done research and for this level in [city], the range is X–Y. Can we get to Y?" Drafted for your offer, ready to send.

Frequently asked

Is this legal advice?

No. This is analysis and benchmarking. For IP disputes, non-compete enforcement, or executive comp above $500K, consult an employment attorney.

What information do I need to provide?

Just paste the full offer letter text. If you have the equity grant details separately (# of shares, vesting schedule), include those too for a complete analysis.

Will negotiating hurt my offer?

Rarely. Hiring managers expect it. The key is asking professionally and with data. The ask scripts we provide are specifically designed to not sound entitled — just informed.

Is Offer Letter Analyzer worth $79?

Employment attorneys charge $300–$600/hr. At $79 you get the same salary benchmark, IP assignment audit, and negotiation scripts in 2 minutes. One successful negotiation typically returns $5,000–$15,000 — a 62–188× return.

What if I don't get results?

If the analysis does not surface a salary benchmark, IP assignment analysis, and at least one negotiation script, email us within 7 days for a full refund.
