Example use cases
Payroll compliance check for new hire
“I'm hiring a part-time server in Chicago, IL starting March 1, 2026 — what's the minimum wage I must pay them, including the tipped cash wage, and is there a higher rate coming soon?”
Job offer wage verification
“We're posting a job offer for a healthcare worker in Montgomery County, MD dated today — what's the current minimum wage there, and which level of government sets it?”
Multi-state payroll audit
“What's the minimum wage for a small employer with 15 employees and $400,000 in annual revenue operating in Oklahoma City, OK as of today?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-agent-tools.nerolabs.workers.dev/rules/us-minimum-wage?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need the authoritative, jurisdiction-resolved minimum wage for a specific US location, including city and county overrides above state and federal floors. It is especially valuable for payroll systems, job offer generation, compliance checks, and HR tools that need the highest applicable rate plus tipped wage and industry-specific rates in a single call, rather than manually reconciling federal, state, and local ordinances.
Side effects
- Address not resolvable by US Census geocoder — returns error or falls back to state-level rate
- State code not recognized — returns validation error
- No data available for a very new or unannounced future rate — returns best available estimate
- Industry string not matched to a known special rate — treated as general rate
- Ambiguous jurisdiction (e.g. city straddles county lines) — returns highest applicable rate with explanation of what it depends on
