CompUp (YC S22)

BOOM. It's here: the 2025 Compensation Technology Buyer's Guide and Landscape Report. What can you expect? Data from 700+ organizations on key priorities, challenges, and preferences when it comes to both comp data and tech. Some food for thought... Compensation leaders say that the #skills needed to succeed in comp are changing. And many organizations aren't ready for it. How does your team stack up? 🧠 Data show that salary survey usage dipped a bit since our last study, but other methods like peer data sourced from HR systems and from job posting data are on the rise. Real-time data to the rescue? 🆘 The compensation technology landscape is more crowded than ever. There are more new platforms than ever before, but the existing players also have some incredible tricks up their sleeve to solve big comp challenges. 💰💰💰 Who's featured? You can learn more about Payscale Carta Compa CandorIQ Salary.com CompUp (YC S22) Greatpoint HR Decusoft Payfederate Syndio HRSoft and Trusaic, with a hat tip to the comp adjacent friends at TalentNeuron and Lightcast as well. Now: several companies were invited to participate but declined. Their absence from the report is voluntary on their part rather than an oversight or exclusion by our team. That includes Pave, BetterComp, and several others. The full report is available for free for anyone that's thinking about compensation, looking for the latest insights as we head into the end of the year and a bright 2026, and wants to create better fair, business-aligned pay outcomes for the business. Check out the link in the chat below. 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 Thank you to Payscale for supporting this research and for supporting the compensation community at large! ❤ Watch for an upcoming webinar announcement to share some of my favorite findings in December. For background, we've run this research every two years since 2019. It started with a look just at the compensation market data providers (we call it strategic comp) but has evolved to also include the operational comp providers like those that support merit increases and budgeting. More than 2,500 employers have been covered in this research since it started and it's been used by leaders at a range of companies from iHeartMedia and Clorox to BMW and White Castle and pretty much everything in between. What an honor to share, serve, and support leaders that are trying to pay their people well! Check out the report below. 😎

High performance doesn’t come from pushing harder - it comes from caring deeper. 🌱 Behind every KPI and target is a human being who needs to feel safe, valued, and balanced. At CompUp (YC S22), we believe mental well-being isn’t a luxury — it’s the foundation of sustainable performance. When organizations invest in mental wellness, they don’t just build happier teams — they build resilient, high-performing ones. Because when people feel seen, they show up stronger. When they feel supported, they stay longer. And when they feel balanced, they perform better — naturally. Today, on #WorldMentalHealthDay, let’s remind ourselves that culture isn’t defined by what we say, but by what we prioritize — every single day. #CompUp #WorldMentalHealthDay #WorkplaceWellness #EmployeeWellbeing

🏹 This #Dusshera, let’s celebrate the triumph of clarity over confusion, purpose over distraction, and progress over obstacles.

Wishing you and your families a joyous and victorious Dusshera! 🌸 #CompUp #HappyDusshera #FestivalOfVictory #WorkplaceGrowth #FestiveSeason #HRCommunity
