Some compensation questions require external information, such as public market commentary, competitor pay philosophies, or labor trends. In these cases, the Pave Agent can now search the web to provide additional context.

For example, a recruiter may need to know a talent competitor's equity refresh policy, a manager may ask about recent changes to pay transparency rules in a specific state, or someone may need to confirm if the cost of living is increasing in a competitive market. The Agent can now retrieve this information, consider it alongside your compensation philosophy, and provide a single, sourced answer. This eliminates the need for additional steps or browser tabs.

If your question extends beyond Pave’s data, the Agent searches the web, evaluates the results, and provides a well-supported answer. All sources used are listed alongside the response, just as with your internal data.

You're still in control

Web search is enabled by default, but you can easily disable it with a single click if you prefer the Agent to use only Pave’s data. No support ticket or wait time is required.

And if you're already working in Claude, you don't even need to open Pave to do it — the Agent now goes wherever you work, so the same grounded, cited answer is one message away.
