# SalaryScript > SalaryScript helps software engineers negotiate higher tech job offers. It publishes free, in-depth salary negotiation guides, word-for-word scripts, and company-specific playbooks, alongside a paid 125-page negotiation book for the recruiter back-and-forth that follows the first counter. SalaryScript is written by people who have worked in and around FAANG hiring. The free content covers the opening moves of a negotiation: counter-offer emails, scripts, and company compensation overviews. The paid product covers what a template cannot: the recruiter's counter-moves, calm responses under pressure, company-specific equity and leveling levers, and real case studies. The audience is software engineers and tech workers who have an active job offer in hand. ## Pillar guides - [Salary Negotiation Scripts](https://salaryscript.com/salary-negotiation-scripts/): 12 word-for-word scripts for every moment in a tech offer negotiation, from the first recruiter call to the final close. -
