Stop going it alone.

Range is for in house compensation and total rewards professionals who are experimenting with AI in their work. Senior practitioners, mostly Director level and above, who feel isolated in that work and want a room of peers who are doing the same thing. If you're actively building, testing, or thinking hard about where AI fits in comp: benchmarking, job architecture, salary planning, executive pay. This is for you.

Range is intentionally practitioner only. If you work for a vendor, this isn't the right fit for membership, but there are other ways to engage with the community. Reach out to find out more. We're also not designed for recruiters, generalist HR without a total rewards focus, or people in the early stages of their comp career. Senior people leaders with a deep interest in total rewards (Chief People Officers, Heads of People) are welcome. Range is specifically for senior practitioners who are building with AI now.

Membership is reserved for in house practitioners, that's what keeps the conversations honest. If your primary role is in house but you do some advisory on the side, you're welcome to apply. If consulting or advising is your main work, this isn't the right fit. That said, there are ways to engage with Range that aren't membership. Reach out if you want to explore that.

No, but the bar is genuine engagement with the question. You don't need to have shipped a working tool. You do need to be actively exploring AI in your role: experimenting with prompts, trying tools like Claude Code, Lovable, or open source alternatives, reading seriously about what's possible. If you're experimenting, that's a really good sign. If you're just watching from a distance and hoping it goes away, Range probably isn't the right fit yet.

The core is weekly Builder Sessions where members work on real problems together, share what is working, and build things they keep. Every session compounds on the last. What gets built goes into the Vault so every member can take it back and use it in their own environment. Most of what comes out of Range is invisible to anyone outside the comp team: the automation that removes a week of manual benchmarking, the script that handles a thousand job description updates, the tool that gives managers answers without the back and forth. The stuff that does not make a slide deck but changes how the work actually gets done. The community is intentionally small, so every conversation matters. Member funded, practitioner led. Vendors can partner with Range on content and events, but they cannot access the community.

The Vault is not a tool catalogue you click through. It stores the underlying code, templates, and prompt chains that members build together in Builder Sessions. You take them back and deploy in your own environment. Some are already there from day one. Every session adds more. Founding members build what future cohorts inherit.

A small number of tools may be available to run directly through Range, where they are genuinely useful to all members and do not require significant customisation for each situation. But Range is a community, not a SaaS platform. The core of the Vault is code and templates members take back and deploy in their own environments. The value is the underlying work and the people who built it.

Yes. Builder Sessions and community calls are open to all members — founding cohort and future members alike. Sessions are divided by use case and typically run with 10 to 20 people depending on interest, which is what keeps them manageable and makes them feel like a real conversation rather than a webinar. The room grows carefully and stays vetted. What never changes: no one outside the community can access them. Private means private.

No. Community work is built around approaches, code, frameworks, and learnings — not raw salary files. Many members use local code execution specifically so sensitive data never leaves their organisation. You can contribute and benefit fully without ever exposing confidential information.

Founding members join while Range is being built. The rate locks for life because you are one of the practitioners shaping what the community becomes: the Vault, the culture, the norms. If you would rather see Range fully operating before committing, that is a fair position. Range will always be a vetted, private community. If it ever grows beyond the founding cohort, the people who joined later will see what founding members built. At a rate that reflects what is already there.

£1,000 per year, charged in your local currency at checkout. Founding members get their rate locked for life as long as they remain members. Future cohorts will pay more. If your company has a learning and development or professional development budget, we can help you make the case for sponsorship. The community itself is member funded and practitioner led. Vendors can partner with Range on content, events, and the podcast, but they cannot access the community. The room belongs to the members.

Every application is reviewed personally, which means it takes time. You'll receive a confirmation email from giac@range.community straight away. If that doesn't arrive, check your spam or promotions folder and add the address to your contacts. When a decision is made on your application, you'll hear from the same address. If you haven't heard anything and want to check in, email giac@range.community directly.

The founding cohort is capped at 100. Founding members join while Range is being built. They shape the Vault session by session, set the culture, and establish the norms that everyone who joins after them inherits. That kind of work requires a room where people actually know each other. At 1,000 people it is a forum. At 100 it is a room. Range will always be a vetted, private community. The founding cohort is the foundation, and we are being deliberate about who lays it.

Range is a community, not a startup. There's no SaaS roadmap and no funding round being planned. What might develop over time: AI embedded in community features that help members do their work better, and potentially AI-native certifications for reward professionals — but those decisions belong to the members collectively, not to a product team. The founding cohort is small by design, which means what Range becomes can actually be decided together.
