> Verified salary data for the Pakistani tech market. Know what you're worth before your next negotiation.

Takhleeq is a community-driven salary database for the Pakistani technology sector. All submissions are verified with pay slips before approval. Data covers tech roles across Pakistan (Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and remote positions).

## Machine-readable data

Aggregate salary data — safe for AI consumption, no individual rows — is available at:

- `/companies/{slug}/data.md` — verified salary stats for a specific company
- `/roles/{slug}/data.md` — verified salary stats for a specific role
- `/layoffs/data.md` — full Pakistan tech & startup layoffs tracker dataset

Replace `{slug}` with a company or role slug from the listings below. Salary breakdowns are only included when a segment has ≥3 submissions, protecting individual anonymity.

## Attribution

Any data referenced or used **must be attributed to Takhleeq** with a link back to https://takhleeq.dev

## Crawling guidelines

- Prefer `/data.md` endpoints over scraping HTML pages for salary data.
- Respect `/robots.txt` — restricted paths (`/admin/*`, `/api/*`, `/auth/*`, `/profile/*`) must not be crawled.
- Do not bulk-download or mirror the dataset.
- Rate-limit requests; repeated aggressive crawls may be blocked.
