Price the penalty on a job ad with no salary range — before it goes live, in the state that actually applies
An employment-law firm charges $350-$500/hour to review a multi-state posting template; a single Washington class claim starts at $5,000 in statutory damages per affected applicant
Buy the full version — $60You pick the state, the go-live date, your headcount and how many postings in the batch have no pay range. It answers four things: whether that state covers an employer your size, which statute and start date apply, what one violation costs there, and the dollar exposure across the batch. Washington and Maryland price per affected applicant, the others per posting.
In-house and agency recruiters and small-business hiring managers who post the same requisition into several US states. If you run one careers page that reaches Virginia, Washington and New Jersey applicants, three different rate structures land on the same ad and nobody in the room knows which one bites hardest.
Because the rates and start dates moved this year and a language model answers from the text it was trained on. Virginia's posting duty only began 2026-07-01 and Maine's on 2026-07-29. A model that predates those dates will confidently tell you Virginia has no posting rule, and it will quote per-posting money for Washington, which charges per applicant.
Every calculation is free, forever, with no key, no watermark and no run limit. All nine jurisdictions, unlimited batches, in the popup and on the web page. The $60 licence adds two things on a different axis: a .csv export of the scored batch that you own and can hand to counsel, and reminders 30, 14 and 1 day before a go-live date.
Employment counsel bills roughly $350 to $500 an hour to review a multi-state posting template, and that review is stale the next time a state moves. On the other side, Washington's statutory damages start at $5,000 per affected applicant, and Massachusetts can reach $25,000 per violation for a repeat offender.
