## Services, start to finish

  calendar. Qualia does not sit between the client and the work.

- Continuity: if a team member leaves, Qualia sources, employs, and onboards the
  replacement at no fee.
- Roles: executive assistant, project manager, sales development rep, data analyst,
  software engineer, customer success, marketing specialist, staff accountant, bookkeeper.
- Team locations: Africa, Asia, Latin America — employed full-time by Qualia, paid above
  local market on a fixed date.

## Structured data
- /data/cost-index.json — Qualia Cost Index (CC BY 4.0). Nine roles x five US
  markets: salary, fully-loaded monthly employer cost, gap vs Qualia's floor.
- /data/cost-index.csv — the same dataset as CSV.

## Method for all cost figures
monthly = national_median_hourly x (regional_wage / 32.60) x 2080 / (1 - regional_benefit_share) / 12
Sources: BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics (national medians, latest release);
BLS Employer Costs for Employee Compensation (regional wage and benefit share by census
division, latest release).

## What we do not claim
No savings percentages without a cited baseline. No retention figures until measured.
No client outcomes the client didn't supply. Every figure traces to a named public
source or Qualia's own published floor.
