Oyster Product Updates: December 2024

This month, we’re rolling out updates to help you make smarter, data-driven decisions across your organization. From richer market data for salary benchmarking to the full release of Salary Analyzer and enhanced features for Global Payroll, these updates are designed to streamline how you manage and reward talent worldwide.

Let’s dive in to our roundup for the month:

  • Market data is here! Benchmark salaries with confidence
  • Oyster’s Salary Analyzer for fixing pay gaps
  • Enhanced functionality for Global Payroll customers

Market data is here! Benchmark salaries with confidence

We partnered with Figures to bring you richer, more robust market salary data with our Salary Insights Tool. Now, you can benchmark salaries using Oyster Pay Bands for a mission-driven approach to equitable pay—or tap into market data for a traditional, market-based perspective.

This tool is available to you even without hiring through our platform. Simply create a free Oyster account to check out these insights!

Let’s achieve pay equity in 2025 ✨

Salary Analyzer is here to help you identify pay gaps across your entire workforce—even for team members hired through your own entities. Simply upload your compensation data to get a detailed analysis and ensure pay equity within your organization.
