MGMA, SullivanCotter, and the broader compensation survey establishment publish on a quarter or annual cadence. By the time a report lands on a Pricing VP's desk, the underlying market has moved — sometimes by hundreds of basis points in a single specialty.
Recruiters quoting against a 90-day-old median are either leaving margin on the table or losing the placement to the agency next door. Neither outcome is recoverable on Friday.

The asset under the platform is a normalized taxonomy of clinical roles, joined to live pay data that is scraped, ingested, and reconciled across the staffing market every day.
Travel RN specialties through CRNA and physician sub-specialties. Each canonical role has its own distribution, percentiles, and trend curve — never rolled up into a generic "RN" category.
"Med-Surg RN", "MS Registered Nurse", and "RN — Medical Surgical" all resolve to one canonical role. Your messy data, reconciled.
All source feeds reconciled every 24 hours. Material rate movements are surfaced as alert events at the role-geography level, not as a quarterly digest.
Drill into any specialty and geography for the full distribution, percentile breakdown, and 30/90-day trend. Every line of the chart is a placement event your team can price against.
Rate-change events for the roles and geographies your team prices. A 6.2% week-over-week move on Travel CRNA in Texas is a meeting, not a footnote in next quarter's report.
Filter the active candidate pool by role, geography, credential class, and availability — every result priced against the same live distribution your team quotes from in Rate Explorer. Toggle the density mapper to see where qualified supply concentrates by metro before you bid.
Inside Candidate Finder & Density MapperWhatever your ATS, CRM, or VMS calls the role, the mapper resolves it to one of 428 canonical clinical entries — and the same logic powers every chart, alert, and API response.
Natural-language queries across the same canonical rate, candidate, and alert data your dashboards run on. Every answer ships with its sources — grounded in live placement events, never hallucinated.
