How it works
- Give the role, level, location, and the pay you plan to offer: base, equity, signing bonus, target bonus, start date, and manager.
- askROI's Draft an offer letter tool writes the draft in the chat: a compensation table with total first-year pay, the start terms, a benefits summary, the letter itself, and notes for the hiring manager.
- Copy the letter into your own template, or keep chatting to change a number, the tone, or the negotiation notes.
What people use it for
- Standard offers turn an approved comp package into a complete letter without starting from a blank page.
- Equity offers spell out share count and vesting so the candidate sees total compensation, not only base pay.
- Counteroffer prep get negotiation notes and flags for the hiring manager before the offer call.
- Missing details talk through a level, bonus, or start date you have not settled yet before the letter is written.
Questions
Can AI help me draft an offer letter that is compliant in another country?
It can draft the letter, but it does not check compliance: askROI does not review offer letters against another country's employment law. Give it the country, role, level, and pay, and it returns the compensation table, the terms, a benefits summary, the letter text, and notes for the hiring manager. Probation, notice periods, working hours, and required contract terms differ by country, so have an employment lawyer in that country review the draft before it goes to the candidate.
What is in the draft?
A compensation table (base, equity with vesting, signing bonus, target bonus, and total first-year pay), the terms (start date, manager, location, employment type), a benefits summary, the full letter text addressed to the candidate, and notes for the hiring manager on negotiation, the pay band, and anything to watch.
What if I do not have every number yet?
Give what you have. It helps you think through the missing pieces, such as the level, a signing bonus, or the start date, before it writes the letter.
Can I make the letter more personal?
Yes. Mention something from the interviews, such as a project the candidate presented, and the letter can reference it so it reads less like a form.
Is the letter ready to send?
It is a draft. Check the numbers, benefits, and employment terms against your own policies before it goes to the candidate, then paste the letter into your usual template.
What does it not do?
It does not look up live salary data or set your pay bands, and it does not produce a signed or e-signable document. It works from the numbers you give it and returns the draft as text in the chat.
