How to use this tool
The tools on this page are small, free calculators and reference tables for people making a first remote hire. None of them asks you to sign up, and none of them stores what you enter. Each one answers a narrow question, so it helps to pick the one that matches the decision in front of you.
If you are weighing budgets, start with the Remote Hiring Cost Calculator, which compares two options using your own quotes and allowances. If you are choosing where to hire, the Country Comparison Tool, the Salary Benchmark Explorer, the Timezone Overlap Calculator and the Statutory Leave and Holiday Comparator show how destinations differ on cost, working hours and paid time off. If you are deciding how to engage someone, the Staffing Model Selector and the Misclassification Risk Quiz set out the main arrangements and the questions to check. The worksheets help you run the hiring process itself.
Every tool gives directional information, not advice. Figures are broad market ranges or statutory minimums, they change over time, and they will not match a particular candidate, provider or contract. Quizzes and selectors are not legal, tax or employment advice. Use the results to narrow your options and prepare better questions, then confirm the details with written quotes and a qualified local adviser before you commit.
