Methodology: averages are computed from budgets stated in public Upwork job posts collected by the SnipeWork scanner (official Upwork API) over a rolling 30-day window. Fixed averages use the midpoint of stated ranges; hourly averages use the midpoint of the client's stated hourly range. Data refreshes continuously.
