Negotiate your salary with a case, not a hope
Most offers have room, and most people never find out — they accept in relief, ask timidly without a rationale, or pick a number with no plan for the pushback. The gap between what you were offered and what you could get is usually not courage. It is preparation: a defensible case, rehearsed.
Decidi builds the case with you. A Negotiation Expert structures the ask and the concession plan, a People Lead argues the other side of the table — what the manager can actually approve, and what lands badly — a Brutally Honest Friend tells you if your number or your rationale is weak, and a Devil’s Advocate stress-tests every claim you plan to make, across several independent frontier models. The verdict gives you the ask, the justification that survives pushback, responses to the likely objections, what to trade beyond base pay, and your walk-away — reviewed by a Final QA audit. Preparation support, not a guarantee of outcome.
- A specific ask with reasoning that survives "why do you think that?"
- The other side of the table argued: what they can approve, what backfires
- Responses rehearsed for the likely objections and the first "no"
- The full package on the table — equity, bonus, title, leave, start date — not just base
- Your weakest claim flagged before the meeting, not during it
- A walk-away point decided calmly in advance
Part of: How Decidi works
A negotiation brief: the ask, the case behind it, answers to the likely objections, what to trade and in what order, and the number at which you walk.
Common questions
Is it really worth negotiating a salary offer?
Usually, yes. Many offers are made below the top of the approved band precisely because negotiation is expected, and a well-reasoned ask rarely costs you the offer — a hostile or evidence-free one is what lands badly. Because raises compound on your starting number, a single good negotiation keeps paying for years.
How does the council know what I am worth?
It does not claim to know your market to the pound — no tool honestly can. What it does is build the reasoning: how to anchor the research and offer details you gather into a defensible range, which of your claims are strong or weak, and how the person across the table will evaluate the ask. You bring the market data; the council turns it into a case.
Is this professional career or legal advice?
No — it is preparation and decision support, not regulated professional advice, and it cannot guarantee an outcome. For contract terms with legal weight (non-competes, equity documents, termination clauses), have a qualified professional review them; the council will flag when something deserves that.
Can it help me rehearse the actual conversation?
Yes — that is where it earns its keep. The council anticipates the specific objections your ask invites, gives you calm responses to each, and sets your concession order in advance, so the first "no" is a step in your plan rather than the end of it.
