Benchmark methodology
One company, one dot. All stage charts share the same axis. Current openings include verified zero counts and newly tracked companies, using successful collections within three days. Stage follows Job Finder maturity buckets. Public companies and companies without a known maturity stage are excluded. Ranges need at least 20 companies; 20–39 is limited coverage. Middle 50% means the 25th–75th percentiles. Hover or focus a dot to see the company; click to inspect its source postings.
Function filters count actual matching postings. Industry uses the primary tag. These ranges describe the tracked companies, not the entire startup market.
