💼 Raise Negotiator
You never get the raise you deserve — you get the raise you can argue for. Enter your pay, market benchmarks and standing. The tool runs the numbers an employer runs: what inflation has quietly taken, the cost of replacing you, and the band you should anchor at — then writes the conversation for you. Everything stays on your device.
Your situation
🟢 The gap is big — you have leverage
Inflation has quietly eroded your ₹9.00 L to a real value of ₹7.86 L — that's a 13% pay cut you never agreed to. The gap to a defensible ask (₹14.50 L) is ₹5.50 L (61%). Waiting one more review cycle burns roughly ₹4.69 L — less than the ₹6.75 L it would cost your employer to replace you. That difference is your leverage.

🎙️ Your 5-beat script for the conversation
1.I've been with the team for 28 months. In that time, I've owned key deliverables end-to-end and supported teammates.
2.I know what this role pays: ₹12.00 L at median, up to ₹14.50 L for the level above mine. I'm at ₹9.00 L.
3.After inflation that's a 13% real-terms cut since I joined — I'd much rather solve that here than by interviewing.
4.Based on that, I'm looking at ₹14.50 L. Happy to walk through the data if useful.
5.If a full correction isn't possible this cycle, let's agree a dated plan: what I deliver by which month, reviewed against which number.
Deliver beats 1–2, then pause. Most managers reveal their band by beat 3. Never name the first number if you can avoid it — and if you must, anchor at ₹14.50 L, not what you'd accept.
Frequently asked questions
Anchor on market data, not need: what the role pays at median (P50) and what strong performers earn (P75), then position your current pay against it. This tool computes that gap, what inflation has quietly taken from your salary, and the cost your employer would face to replace you — then writes the five-beat script for the conversation.
