Salary Check

Free. No sign-up. No account.

Free AI salary calculator

How much should you ask for? Upload your CV, add the job ad, and get a fair range for that exact job in under a minute.

Salary Check gives an informational estimate only. This is not legal, tax, or employment advice. Always check the applicable collective agreement, law, and your own situation.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Upload your CV

    Salary Check reads your experience, qualifications, languages and skills straight from the document. You do not need to fill in a long profile form.

  2. Step 2

    Add the job ad

    Paste the full text or drop in the link, and pick the country and city where the job sits. The full text gives the most accurate result.

  3. Step 3

    Get your range

    You get a low, target and high figure in the local currency, plus the reasoning behind each one. You also get the number to name first and tips for that specific job.

What the estimate is based on

Your actual experience

Not a job title lookup. The tool reads what you have really done, how many years of it, and which of your skills the employer is paying for.

The specific job ad

Seniority, sector, company size and contract type all move the number, so the estimate is built for that one posting rather than an average.

What the market pays now

The tool searches current pay data for that role in that country and city, and shows you the sources it used.

The legal floor

In countries with statutory minimum wages or sector collective agreements, the tool checks what the employer is legally obliged to pay before it suggests what to ask.

Why ranges differ so much between countries

Gross salary is quoted differently across Europe. Austria pays 14 monthly salaries a year, with extra payments in summer and before Christmas, while Germany pays 12. The same yearly figure therefore means different money each month, and comparing monthly offers across borders without checking the number of payments is misleading.

In Austria and Germany, sector collective agreements set a legal minimum for each job classification, and many job ads quote that minimum instead of the real market rate. This is the single most common reason internationals accept too little: they read the advertised minimum as the going rate and ask for it.
