Pave Market Data provides compensation benchmarks for companies making pay decisions. It covers base salary, bonus and variable pay, total cash compensation, and new-hire and ongoing equity. Pave collects information through persistent connections to HRIS, ATS, and equity management systems, then uses machine learning to match employee records to job architecture before aggregating and de-identifying the data. Collection occurs daily, while benchmark updates are published monthly. Coverage includes more than 200 job families; Pro includes more than 55 countries and 90 cities or metros. Pro adds custom peer groups, advanced equity data, and customized reports. Lite is described for startups with 1–200 employees and includes the overall U.S. market plus one additional market. Access requires customers to connect HR platforms, with supported providers including ADP, BambooHR, Gusto, Rippling, and Workday. Lite is free; Pro pricing is by quote. Pave says users cannot access competitor-specific compensation data and describes its data as aggregated and de-identified.
