PAGA & Class Actions California Wage & Hour

Compliance Analytics and Settlement Intelligence for California Wage & Hour Litigation

Every PAGA and class action matter turns on two questions: what actually happened in the time records, and what does the market settle for. Scaled Comp answers both. Cleaned punch data and quantified violation analysis on the inside of the case. Structured settlement and mediator intelligence on the outside. Built for the firms litigating California labor matters.

Two Data Layers Every Matter Needs

The strongest litigation positions sit on top of structured data — about the case itself and about the market it lives in. Scaled Comp builds both layers.

Inside the Case

The Scaled Comp Analyzer

Reconstructs shifts from raw time records, applies California meal and rest break rules including 5/6-hour waiver logic, and produces quantified violation analysis broken out by location, manager, and time period. The output is a cleaned dataset, a violation summary, and an audit trail — ready for review, mediation, or expert handoff.

Outside the Case

The Vector Index™

Structured PAGA and class action settlement data drawn from 5,900+ tracked California matters. Plaintiff firm patterns, mediator histories, per-pay-period and per-workweek values, and comparable cohort analysis — delivered as professional, citation-ready documents firms can put in front of clients, partners, or opposing counsel.

Where Firms Use Scaled Comp

Concrete tasks, not abstract value props. The work firms actually do, with the data layer that supports it.

Quantify Exposure From Raw Records

Reconstruct shifts and identify violations across messy, multi-location punch data. Move from raw timecards to a structured exposure picture in days, not weeks.

Build Expert-Grade Documentation

Cleaned datasets, transparent methodology, and full data quality logs — built to hold up under discovery, depositions, and expert review.

Benchmark Settlements With Real Data

Vector Index™ settlement intelligence replaces anecdote with structured data on plaintiff firms, mediators, and comparable cases — calibrated for the matter in front of you.

Triage Mass Datasets Quickly

Scale across hundreds of locations and millions of punches without expanding the team or assembling a custom data-science engagement for every matter.

Across the Litigation Lifecycle

Different stages of a matter call for different data. Scaled Comp shows up at each one.

1

Pre-Filing

Evaluate the data picture before commitments are made. Quantify what the records actually show.

2

Notice & Response

Convert the first weeks after a filing or notice into a data-grounded response, not a fog of spreadsheets.

3

Discovery

Cleaned, normalized punch datasets and audit-ready documentation built for production and expert review.

4

Mediation & Settlement

Walk in with quantified exposure, mediator benchmarks, and comparable settlement data — not anecdote.

5

Trial Prep

Expert-grade analysis, transparent methodology, and the underlying datasets that survive cross-examination.

Capabilities

A purpose-built compliance analysis engine and a structured settlement data layer — both designed for the realities of California wage & hour litigation.

Clean Data From Messy Sources

Out-of-order punches, overnight shifts, missing entries, duplicate rows — normalized into clean, reconstructed shift sequences with full provenance.

Reliable Violation Identification

California meal and rest break rules, overtime triggers, double-time thresholds, and wage statement (LC 226) checks applied deterministically to every shift.

Sequence Repair & Anomaly Detection

Mis-ordered punches, duplicates, and overlap conflicts flagged before they corrupt downstream analysis. Every fix is logged and reviewable.

Fast Triage at Scale

Mass datasets across thousands of employees and millions of punches processed in days — the kind of speed mediation calendars and discovery deadlines demand.

Outputs Built for Counsel

Excel datasets, violation summaries, location and manager risk rankings, and audit-ready documentation — formatted for review, mediation, expert work, and exhibits.

Custom Engagement Options

Combined Analyzer + Vector Index™ engagements, expanded scope, recurring intelligence updates, or analysis tailored to a portfolio of matters.

The Settlement Intelligence Layer

Three structured intelligence products built from the Vector Index™ — each grounded in real California PAGA and class action settlement data, not estimates or averages from unrelated cases.

Single plaintiff firm

Settlement history, per-pay-period and per-workweek values, mediator preferences, venue patterns, and comparable matters for a specific plaintiff firm. Useful for evaluating opposing-counsel patterns, briefing colleagues, or benchmarking outcomes.

Built With Litigator Insight

Scaled Comp was developed in collaboration with experienced California wage & hour attorneys. The Analyzer reflects how compliance evidence is actually used in litigation — in mediation, depositions, expert work, and at trial — not how a generic compliance tool imagines it might be.

The Vector Index™ reflects how settlement data is actually consumed in negotiation: structured, comparable, and grounded in California matters rather than national averages. Both layers are built for the documents and decisions counsel actually has to produce.

Walk Into Every Matter With the Data Already in Hand

Whether you’re evaluating a new matter, preparing for mediation, or building expert-grade documentation, Scaled Comp delivers the data layers California wage & hour litigation runs on.
