How this number is built.
The UK figure for Generative AI Developer comes from ONS ASHE Table 14, the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings broken down by 4-digit SOC 2020 occupation. Orbyt maps the role to its SOC 2020 code, reads the gross-weekly-pay distribution, and annualizes it. ASHE publishes real sample sizes, so the figure carries survey-grade confidence rather than a structural placeholder.
Values are gross base salary in pounds sterling. The API also returns a USD-normalized value via the published GBP FX rate for cross-country comparison. Income tax and National Insurance are the consumer's calculation; Orbyt does not bake them into the reconciled number.
