PayScope U
What it is
PayScope U is web-based software that turns cleaned, standardised UK job-advert data and benchmarks into pay insights by role and location. It is intended for HR and reward leaders, talent acquisition and recruitment teams, and data and operations teams. Pay Maps shows regional pay differences, demand, and supporting job data. Pay Explorer compares advertised pay with ONS earnings and presents sample sizes and caveats. Recruiter Radar provides a one-page view of a recommended pay band, market demand, competition, and typical pay direction. Analytics covers median pay, pay spread, trends, market pressure, and hiring activity. AI-generated summaries interpret the dataset. PayScope defines typical pay as the median hourly rate, spread as the middle 50%, and range as the full market including outliers. Results include coverage indicators and caveats where data is limited. Pricing is on request through a demo.
