| The job | Assemble the rate and salary evidence that exists, with the sample size beside every figure, and refuse to show a number below the floor. |
| What stays human | Every decision about a person. We will not build shortlisting, scoring or ranking of candidates — see the exclusion below. |
| Pricing shape | Fixed fee per market study. Not a subscription to a number that has not changed. |
| The system behind it | DayRate — <b>missing</b>. No repository exists at the expected path, which is why the rate-index tool (N4-03) is not built and this offer currently runs on published sources rather than an index of our own. |
Before you buy it
An n<3 floor is not a nicety. A day rate quoted from two data points is a rumour with a decimal place, and the tool that would show it renders “not enough data” instead.
And the general test, which applies to this offer as much as any other: six questions that settle whether a task should be automated at all. Five of its eight verdicts are some form of no.

Checked 8 September 2026. Any figure on this page is restated from We checked five AI statistics we were about to publish. Three had no source, What to automate first in an advice firm — and what to never automate, where it carries its source, its weight and the date it is next due — and where it is listed on the public register with every other number on this site. Nothing is quoted here that is not sourced there. If one has gone stale before we got to it, tell us.
One job, named.
Not “automate the back office”. The specific thing that is eating the hours, with the six audit records written into the statement of work before anything is built.
