Likely Buyers
This page is a product preview for comparing likely buyers, source coverage, and first API shapes.

Initial Data Scope
The first buyer-ready workflow should keep the source coverage narrow.
- BLS OEWS source cache with occupation, geography, industry, release-period, and wage-field filters first.
- Release-based JSON and CSV exports before broad compensation benchmarking or enrichment.
- No compensation advice, hiring advice, legal advice, pay-equity analysis, wage compliance certification, or employment decisioning.
