Book a 30-minute demoThe same defensible report at every price
No tier locks methodology, source data, or PDF formatting. Higher plans add white-label branding, more reports per year, and a per-report price discount — never a less-defensible report.
Included in every report
- Your choice of approach for each report: Cost (Many Hats), a task-by-task valuation against BLS occupations, or Market, a primary-occupation benchmark for the local wage area
- Source citations: BLS occupation code, area code, and data year for every wage figure
- Full methodology explaining how the numbers were derived
- Sample written consent or board resolution language for your company records
- Downloadable PDF — share with your tax professional or attach to corporate records
- Audit support: if the IRS asks about your report, we'll support you.
What we deliberately don't do
- No proprietary wage database. All wages come from BLS OEWS — auditor-verifiable.
- No safe-harbor formulas or rules of thumb. The IRS hasn't endorsed any.
- No tax advice. The report documents a defensible number; your tax professional owns the filing.
- No surprise add-ons. Methodology, branding (where included), and PDF are not upsells.
S-Corp owners pay $199 per report when they unlock their figure. Professional plans bill annually and include a fixed pool of reports — need more, and you can add 10-report packs at a discounted per-report rate, or single reports at $199.
If a report is materially defective because of a verifiable software error, email help@wageproof.com and we will fix it — and for a single report, you can request a refund within 30 days of purchase instead. Refunds are not available because you disagree with the figure or entered inaccurate inputs.
Finalized reports do not expire while your account is active. Drafts auto-finalize 30 days after the figure is ready, so you always have a report.
Questions before you buy?
How much does a report cost?
A single report is $199. Tax professionals can also choose an annual plan: Starter $499/year for 10 reports, Professional $999/year for 30, or Firm $1,499/year for 60 ($24.98/report on the Firm plan at 60 reports). See the pricing page for details.
View pricing →Can I see a sample report before I buy?
Yes. There's a full sample report on the site, no email required. Cost and Market reports of your own have the same format, data sources and methodology documentation.
See the sample report →What if there's a problem with my report?
Email help@wageproof.com. If the report is materially defective because of a verifiable software error — a figure inconsistent with the underlying BLS data, for example — we'll fix it — and if you bought a single report, you can request a refund within 30 days of purchase instead. Refunds aren't available simply because you disagree with the figure or entered inaccurate inputs. Full terms are on the Terms page.
What happens if the IRS asks about my report?
Subject to our Terms, we'll support you in an audit. Every report includes audit support at no extra charge: if the IRS or a state tax agency asks about the salary in a finalized report, contact us at help@wageproof.com and our team will explain how the report was built, the BLS data it used, and how each figure was calculated. It's available for four years after you finalize the report, whether or not you still subscribe. We explain the report; your CPA, enrolled agent or attorney represents you before the IRS.
Do annual plans renew automatically? How do I cancel?
Yes. Annual plans renew automatically for another one-year term at the then-current price, charged to the card on file on the renewal date, unless you cancel first. We email you a renewal notice before each renewal with the amount and the date. The Account owner can cancel any time from the Billing page; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current term and you keep access until then. Single reports are one-time purchases and never renew.
Read the billing terms →Can I upgrade my professional plan mid-year?
Yes — on an active subscription you pay the flat difference between the two plans, your remaining reports carry over plus the tier difference (up to the new plan's maximum), and your renewal date does not change — your plan renews on your existing renewal date at the new plan's price at that time unless you cancel. You can also schedule a downgrade to a lower plan from your Billing page; it takes effect at your next renewal, and this cycle's reports and add-on packs are unaffected.
View pricing plans →Can I buy more reports than my CPA plan includes?
Yes. You can buy a 10-report pack at a discounted per-report rate — $499 on Starter, $349 on Professional, $249 on Firm. It's a one-time purchase, not a change to your subscription. The Account owner buys packs from the Billing page any time the plan is active. Your plan's reports are always used first; pack reports are used after those run out, and unlike plan reports they don't expire at renewal — they stay on the account until you use them. Single reports are also available at $199 each.
View pricing plans →Can my whole firm use one account?
Yes, on Professional and Firm plans. Professional supports up to 10 seats; Firm supports unlimited seats. Starter and Pay Per Report stay at one seat. Everyone on the account shares one client roster and one pool of reports; the firm's Account owner manages billing while admins manage the team and members handle client work.
Why wouldn't I just prepare this myself?
You could. But with annual plans, the time savings alone make it worthwhile. The report handles the BLS data lookup, geographic fallback logic, wage adjustments, and methodology documentation. You review the inputs and deliver the report. Your clients get a documented PDF; you skip the manual data work.
