To clarify, these are rates that freelancers quote via our contract tool and are paid for via our invoicing tool, so it's pretty verified. We also allow users to submit their rates, but we weight those much less than the data verified by client payments.

Your tool is gorgeous and the numbers seem on point to me. Is the source of this data Bonsai customers aggregated or something else?

Edit: I should read further down the page :). If you would like to add more insight still that would be great.

Curious, do you have stats for remote workers? I live in a far away country with no physical access to the US.

This tool is awesome. All the other surveys I find seem to hit the low end, but if this data is true, then the rates I've been quoting are spot on.

Thanks for posting this.
