How this is computed

Company data last refreshed: 2026-03-20.

Company-data sources: wikidata, github, news

Hiring figures come from live listings on the employer's careers site and may be up to a day old. AI-exposure scores match each role's occupation (O*NET 30.2) against the Anthropic Economic Index (24 March 2026 release).

Caveats: salaries use 2024 exchange rates; unusual locations can't always be placed in a region; salary disclosure under 20% triggers the low-disclosure note.
