Question 1

How does the Salary Negotiation Script Writer work?

Accepted Answer

Enter your scenario (initial ask, counter-offer, or final offer), target salary, role, company, and any leverage points (competing offer, market data, impact, experience, scarce skills). The engine produces a tailored negotiation package: (1) a counter-offer email with subject line, (2) in-person talking-point cards, (3) responses to six common objections ('budget is fixed', 'what are your expectations?', 'you need more experience', 'wrong timing', 'we match competitive offers', 'wait for your promotion'), and (4) non-salary levers to fall back on (equity, PTO, remote, signing bonus, performance bonus, title, professional development, benefits). You also get an anchor range — the low, target, and stretch numbers to keep in your head during the conversation.

Question 2

What scenarios and tones are supported?

Accepted Answer

Three scenarios: 'Initial ask' (first number on the table), 'Counter-offer' (responding to an existing offer), and 'Final offer' (closing round). Two tones: 'Confident' (firm, anchored, willingness to walk) and 'Collaborative' (partnership framing, problem-solving, shared outcomes). The tone you pick shapes the email opener, the talking-point phrasing, and the objection responses — pick the one that fits your relationship with the hiring manager and your appetite for risk.

Question 3

How is the anchor range calculated and what leverage framing is included?

Accepted Answer

The anchor range is built from your target salary: low = target × 0.95 (your floor), mid = target (your ask), high = target × 1.10 (your stretch). Always ask for the high number first — it sets the anchor and gives you room to concede to your real target. Leverage framing lets you check one or more of: competing offer, market data, quantified impact, years of relevant experience, education/certifications, scarce/in-demand skills, or promotion-track case. Each checked lever adds a sentence to the talking points and email that frames your ask in terms the employer already values.

Question 5

Is my salary information sent anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. All script generation runs locally in your browser. Your salary numbers, role, and company details never leave this device. The only network call is if you paste your own LLM API key (OpenAI or Anthropic) and click 'Enhance with LLM' — that request goes directly from your browser to the provider you choose, never to UnQTools. History is stored in localStorage on this device only and can be cleared at any time. The on-device template engine is the default — you don't need an API key to use the tool.
