Why I built this

Most conversations about pay happen in private — a friend's DM, an anonymous forum post, a hushed comment between colleagues. What's usually missing is the shape of it: how compensation actually moves over years, across promotions, job changes, and relocations, rather than a single number frozen in time.

I built CompTrail so anyone can plot that shape for themselves in a few minutes and choose exactly how much of it to share. There's no login and no directory of companies or people — just a timeline you control, and a link you can hand to whoever might find it useful.

My hope is that a few honest, anonymous timelines make the invisible math of a career a little easier to reason about — whether you're deciding to ask for a raise, weighing a new offer, or just curious what normal growth looks like.
