What the alternatives cost: a national static compensation report runs $449–$1,199 per year and can't adjust to your budget size or metro. A custom compensation study runs $5,000–$15,000 and answers one year's question. CauseComp Professional is $996/year, interactive, and covers your whole org.
Why annual-first?

Comp questions recur — ED reviews, budget season, offer letters, 990 filing. An annual plan means the answer is always a login away, and it's how we can price at $83/month instead of consultant rates.

Why is Professional's first month $297?

Professional month-to-month is $297 for the first month, then $99/month after. The one-time activation covers standing up your first board-ready analysis. Annual Professional ($996/yr) has no activation fee — it's the better value if you'll use CauseComp more than a couple of months.

What happens when my free searches run out?

Free accounts include two Workforce searches and permanent access to the sample executive report. After that, Essential starts at $49/month billed annually — or grab a one-time Board Report if you have exactly one question.

Can I switch tiers?

Anytime. Plan changes take effect immediately and are prorated — you're credited for unused time on your current plan. Board Report buyers get $349 credited toward Professional within 90 days.

Is my data confidential?

Your queries and organization details are never shared or sold. Benchmarks are built from public filings and federal surveys.
