Big career calls deserve more than a Reddit thread and your mom's advice. SynthBoard runs your decision through 5 expert Synths — Investor, Strategist, Empath, Futurist, Skeptic — and gives you the synthesis in five minutes.
Two offers are never apples-to-apples. The Boardroom unpacks the trade-offs across comp, equity, brand, learning, and 5-year optionality.
Before you send the counter-offer, run it through a Boardroom session. The Skeptic Synth will rehearse the recruiter's likely responses so you're not surprised.
"Should I quit before I have the next offer?" "Should I tell my current manager?" "When is the right time to start applying?" Multi-perspective answers in real time.
Real questions. Multiple expert perspectives. Every time.
“Offer A: $180K base, established brand, slow ladder. Offer B: $140K + 0.5% equity, Series B, ambiguous role. Which?”
“Should I take the title bump at my current company or hold out for an external move?”
“I have a verbal offer pending and another interview tomorrow. Slow-roll the verbal or accept?”
“My current employer countered with a 20% raise. Stay, leverage, or use as proof for the next role?”
“I want to pivot from PM to engineering manager — should I take a step backward in title?”
Each expert thinks independently — they won’t just agree with each other.
The Empath
Reads the emotional, cultural, and team dynamics behind the decision.
The Investor
Thinks like a board, an LP, and a downstream acquirer at once.
The Strategist
Maps competitive dynamics and strategic options across multi-year horizons.
The Skeptic
Questions every premise. Finds blind spots others miss.
The Futurist
Pulls the 5- and 10-year scenarios most teams forget to model.
A synthesized recommendation from your team of experts — not just opinions, but structured analysis.

Synthesized Recommendation
Counter at $165K + 0.4% equity at offer B. The Investor and Strategist see the equity as the real prize (Series B equity at 0.5% has a $300K-$3M expected value range). The Empath notes that "ambiguous role" is the actual risk — get the scope in writing before the counter is final.

Watch Out For
Expert Opinions
“Most job seekers under-negotiate by $10-50K because no one rehearses the counter with them. The Boardroom is the cheapest rehearsal you'll ever do.”
150 credits/month free is enough for the 3-5 major career sessions most job seekers need.
Reddit, Blind, and Twitter all give you majority opinion. The Boardroom preserves minority opinions — sometimes the dissent is the right call.
Your career decisions stay yours. Sessions are not used for model training. Your manager, recruiter, and Blind don't see anything.
A coaching session takes a week to book and $300+ to run. A Boardroom session is five minutes and free for most users.
The questions people ask before they sign up.
Yes — tech job decisions are one of the highest-traffic use cases. The Investor Synth understands startup equity, the Strategist understands big-tech career ladders, and the Skeptic understands the realistic risks of both. The Boardroom handles offer comparison, negotiation strategy, and timing the exit.
Yes — every session generates a shareable link. Many job seekers run the Boardroom solo, then send the synthesis to their partner so the conversation starts from evidence, not vibes.
Tell the Boardroom about the constraint in the prompt — "I have an H-1B that transfers, but my partner's green card is sponsored by my current employer." The Empath and Strategist Synths will factor it in. Constraints make the analysis sharper, not weaker.
Both. Before the offer: pressure-test whether to even apply. During interviews: prep for the salary negotiation. After the offer: compare, negotiate, decide. The highest-leverage moment is during negotiation — most candidates leave $10-50K on the table because they don't pressure-test their counter.
Levels and Blind give you data points and crowd opinion. SynthBoard gives you the analysis — what to do with the data points. Most job seekers pair them: use Levels for comp benchmarks, then run the Boardroom on what to do with the benchmark.
