Short answers.
- Where does the data come from?
- Every figure on this site is derived from IRS Form 990 electronic filings — public records filed annually by U.S. tax-exempt organizations. We source the raw data from the GivingTuesday 990 Data Lake and clean, normalize, and benchmark it ourselves.
- How current is the data?
- The file refreshes monthly. Because of IRS processing and filing extensions, the most recent complete year of data typically runs 1–2 fiscal years behind today.
- Is the PDF board-meeting ready?
- Yes. The report is formatted for board packet distribution and includes methodology, a data-source citation line, and Section 4958 compliance language that reasonable-compensation reviewers expect to see.
- What's in the free tier?
- Every statistic on the site — medians, percentiles, distributions, filters, peer comparisons, saved benchmarks, and multi-org comparisons — is free and unlimited. The $19 fee is strictly for the PDF artifact you hand to a board.
