Salary data definitions and interpretation
Understand gross annual base salary, variable compensation, percentiles, confidence labels, location fields, and no-result states.
Gross annual base salary
Base salary is before tax and excludes bonuses, commissions, equity, benefits, and employer costs.
Percentiles
p10, p25, median, p75, and p90 describe positions within a returned salary range rather than one person's exact pay.
Confidence and no result
Confidence is a user-facing indicator, while no result means SalaryAPI did not return a usable range for that request.
Responsible interpretation
Use salary benchmarks with role scope, local expertise, current market context, and other relevant information.
