Documentation Overview

CompShop

The independent directory of salary & compensation surveys. Search 350+ reports across 17+ vendors (Mercer, WTW, Aon, SullivanCotter, Gallagher, Pearl Meyer, Empsight, Culpepper, Milliman, MRA, LOMA, Birches Group, Western Management Group, and more) by job title, industry, geography, or publisher.

Tech stack

Framework: Next.js 14 (App Router) + TypeScript + Tailwind
Database: SQLite (better-sqlite3) with a file-backed DB bundled in the repo
Search: server-side FTS-ish query across vendors, reports, job families, positions, and participating orgs
SEO: ~3,500 statically-generated indexable pages (vendor / report / family / position) with JSON-LD, OG/Twitter tags, canonical URLs, and an auto-generated sitemap

Local dev

Terminal

npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

Data pipelines

Loaders are in scripts/. Each writes to data/compshop.db.

bash

# Add/refresh a vendor (parent row)
npm run db:add-vendor <path-to-json>

# Add/refresh a single report (with optional XLSX position/participant lists)
npm run db:add-report <path-to-directory>

# Batch-load many reports at once
npm run db:add-report-batch "scripts/data/mercer-*"

See scripts/SCRAPING.md for the full data-loading workflow.

Deployment

Deploys to Vercel out of the box. The SQLite DB file (data/compshop.db) is committed to the repo and read at request time by the serverless routes; almost all pages are pre-rendered statically at build time via generateStaticParams + force-static.

Set NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL in your Vercel project settings to your production domain (e.g., https://compshop.io).

A guidance signal from public completeness & health data — not a user rating. New listings start lower and rise as they add docs, get verified, and grow adoption. Signals we can't observe for a listing are skipped, not counted against it.
