Competitor Pay and Posting Watch Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

You lose a candidate to a competitor and only then find out they pay 12% more and offer remote work. This agent watches for that before it happens. Each week it searches competitor career pages and job boards for roles that match your open postings, and records pay ranges, perks, location rules and wording. It checks each finding against a second source, such as the same role on another board, before logging it, and drops unverified claims. Then it compares the verified data with your own postings and builds a gap list. You decide whether to bring any gap to compensation. Edge case: a posting with a pay range for a different city is marked as not comparable.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

A role is comparable if title level, location and scope match. A gap is reported if the competitor midpoint is more than 5% above ours or a perk is missing.

  • Compare only same level, same market roles
  • Report a gap above 5% at midpoint
  • Keep records only with a second source
  • Mark remote policy differences separately from pay

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Competitor list
  • Roles and titles to watch
  • Gap threshold (default 5%)
  • Report day and recipients

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Coordinator decides what goes to compensation

Hard limits

  • Never contact competitors or their candidates
  • Never use leaked or private information

It stops when

  • Done: gap list sent to the coordinator
  • Stop: a site blocks automated reading

An example run

What happensThe agent found a competitor data analyst role at $82k to $96k in Chicago, confirmed on the company page and a board. Ours was $75k to $88k, a gap of 9.5% at midpoint, and theirs added a four day week. A second record turned out to be for Denver, so it was removed. The coordinator took the Chicago gap to compensation.
