The raw DOL file has 1,032,735 rows. 631,323 are withdrawn or denied, and wages are mixed hourly, weekly and yearly.
55,404 raw employer spellings. We merged 4,223 companies’ variants (Inc/LLC/commas) by federal employer ID.
The file lists filings, not your rank. We build your exact employer × role × metro cohort and compute your percentile on your device.
A spreadsheet won’t tell you what to ask for or how to say it. The Dossier gives you the number, the receipts and the email.
Fair questions.
ALL FAQ →Is this legal?+
Yes. These are public government records published by the Department of Labor. We show employer-level wage data and public case numbers, never worker names. Discussing your pay with coworkers is also protected for most U.S. private-sector employees under the National Labor Relations Act. This isn’t legal advice.
Is my salary private?+
Yes. Your salary never leaves your device. Your browser downloads the public filings for your employer and does the math itself. Share cards show your percentile and employer, never your salary. Payments go through Stripe, and Stripe never sees your salary either.
My employer doesn’t sponsor visas. Does this still help?+
Partly. If your employer has fewer than 5 filings for your role, we can’t rank you against them, but you can still check rival employers that hire for your role in your city, and the BLS market band covers all employers. The data skews toward tech, finance, healthcare, universities and large companies.
What do I get for $14?+
The Leverage Dossier: your target ask (75th percentile of your exact cohort), your gap in dollars, the nearest filings above you with case numbers, the rival employers that pay more for your role nearby, a word-for-word raise email and counter-offer lines using your real numbers, and a PDF to bring to the conversation.
Can I cancel anytime?+
Yes. Watch cancels in one click from the Stripe billing portal (the “Manage billing” link in your receipt or confirmation page) and stays active until the end of the period you paid for. The Dossier is a one-time purchase.
Why not just download the DOL file myself?+
You can, and it’s public. It’s also a 1M-row spreadsheet with hourly, weekly and yearly wage units mixed together, withdrawn and denied cases, and dozens of spellings per employer. You’d have to clean it, merge employers, build cohorts and compute percentiles, then write the email. That takes hours. Outpaid does it in 30 seconds.
Is this financial or legal advice?+
No. Outpaid is an information tool. For visa or employment questions, talk to a qualified attorney. We can connect you with one through “Get matched.”
