Execute Any Compensation Strategy. Directly. No Dependencies.
Aeqium is your AI-powered compensation planning platform. From any type of cycle to ongoing analysis, everything runs through one system with complete flexibility and control. No fragmented tools, no spreadsheet patches, no waiting on others to execute your strategy.
Aeqium's visual workflow builder eliminates platform complexity so you can configure any compensation cycle directly. Design merit matrices with performance lookups, build bonus formulas with custom variables, create pro-ration logic for mid-cycle adjustments, and configure multi-stage approval workflows that match your organization's structure. No coding required, no IT dependencies, no workarounds needed.
Track cycle progress, enforce budget guardrails, and maintain complete audit trails in real time. Aeqium's monitoring tools show exactly where every manager stands against timelines and budgets, automatically flag potential issues, and provide comprehensive compliance records. Catch problems as they happen instead of discovering them five steps later when you have to unwind approvals, recalibrate budgets, and rebuild what's already been completed.
Give managers the tools and context to plan confidently. Aeqium provides real-time collaboration features, proactive guidance, and comprehensive total rewards visibility so managers can make informed decisions without constant HR support. Discuss recommendations with colleagues through built-in comments and tagging, receive clear instructions at the moment they're needed, and access historical compensation data and future projections that inform better planning decisions.
Visualize compensation bands across your organization, control access to sensitive pay data, and automate job hierarchy management. Aeqium makes it simple to share the right band information with the right people, maintain accurate job leveling structures, and integrate market data from any source. Build competitive pay ranges that reflect your compensation philosophy without the complexity of managing bands across multiple spreadsheets or systems.
Monitor pay equity, analyze compensation trends, and generate proactive insights year-round. Aeqium provides ongoing analysis across your entire organization, enabling you to spot pay disparities, identify retention risks, and understand compensation patterns before they become problems. Run custom analyses on any employee population, track equity metrics continuously, and access per-employee visualizations that reveal the full compensation story beyond annual cycles.
Help employees understand the full value of their compensation package. Aeqium generates comprehensive total rewards statements that showcase base salary, target compensation, benefits, and equity value in clear, visual formats. Enable pay transparency with accessible compensation information, automate offer letter generation for new hires, and ensure every employee sees the complete picture of your investment in them beyond just their base pay.
Aeqium's AI agents don't just advise, they implement. Describe what you need in plain language, and our AI builds the compensation logic, configures workflows, and applies changes across your platform instantly. From creating complex merit matrices to setting up approval chains, Aeqium AI translates your compensation strategy into executable configuration without requiring technical expertise, coding, or IT resources.
Uncover complex compensation issues that traditional reporting misses. Aeqium's AI detects pay compression across job levels, identifies internal equity gaps, analyzes promotion cycle impacts on salary structures, and flags retention risks based on competitive positioning. Ask questions like "Where do we have compression between senior and staff levels?" and get deep analysis with actionable insights in seconds.

People Teams Love Aeqium
Aeqium absolutely has a positive ROI for dbt Labs. We can easily customize it to match every iteration of our comp program, and it helps us and our managers make more thoughtful comp decisions. It’s made my life easier and is a big “W” for our people team.

Aeqium was a no-brainer. It costs us less than half of what we were being charged by Pave. It's easier to configure, it's easier for our managers to use, and our leadership team raves about it.
Aeqium has been instrumental in advancing our team's understanding of total compensation and has become the center of gravity for all things comp at WHOOP.
Other platforms want to fit you into a box and say, ‘this is how you should be doing it.’ but with Aeqium, we were in the driver's seat and could tell the tool how we wanted things to look.
Our compensation review ran so smoothly with Aeqium. Our people team, managers, and leadership found it very simple to use. Our CTO says it’s one of the easiest systems he’s ever used, especially for HR tools.
We have far fewer questions about the process and more of a focus on applying the compensation philosophy for their employees, which is a marked difference from previous cycles. Our managers estimate they complete their reviews in half the time and that there are 90% fewer errors in the data.
