Changes and improvements

Every time we fix a calculation, extend coverage to a new territory, or verify an official figure, it is logged here with a date. This is the living counterpart to the methodology page: not how the calculation works, but what has improved and when.

Current data status

  • 17 communities and territories covered

  1. 2026-07-23New coverage

    We published a public JSON API (/api/v1) for net salary, severance and unemployment, computed by the same engine as the site. It is free, needs no sign-up, and returns the engine's numbers so any person, tool or search engine can cite them.

  2. 2026-07-23New coverage

    We removed every email sign-up form from the site. We no longer ask for or store any email address: reclute collects no personal data (no accounts, no cookies, no forms). We updated the privacy policy and legal notice to match; since we process no personal data, we also publish no name or postal address, only a contact email.

  3. 2026-07-23New coverage

    New page: a tax and payroll glossary. The terms that appear on your payslip, in your income-tax return and in your contract (IRPF, withholding, contribution base, finiquito, SMI, IPREM and more) explained in plain language and with their legal reference, with a search box and a category filter. Each term links to the tool it belongs with.

  4. 2026-07-22New coverage

    The home page now has a question box: write what you need to know in one sentence ("how much do I take home on 35,000 in Catalonia?") and we open the tool that answers it, with your details already filled into the form and, when the question carries enough information, with the figure already worked out. An AI model only decides which tool applies and reads the values you mention; every euro is computed by the same engine the calculators use, so the answer and the page always agree. If we cannot interpret the question, we show the list of tools instead of inventing an answer.

  5. 2026-07-18New coverage

    New tool: the dismissal-letter and settlement reviewer. Paste the text of your dismissal letter or settlement (or fill in the details by hand) and we compare what you are offered against what the law would entitle you to, with a clear flag when the amount falls short. The calculation is done by the same severance and settlement engines the calculators already use; if you paste the document, an AI model only reads the case type, the dates, the salary and the offered amount from it, and never computes any figure. It is informational, not legal advice.

  6. 2026-07-16New coverage

    Mexico now has its own salary comparator at /es-mx/: compare two salaries side by side, with the ISR and IMSS for each, and see which leaves you more net pay per year. Unlike the Spanish comparator it does not compare states: ISR is federal, so withholding does not change with where you live.

  7. 2026-07-16New coverage

    Mexico now has its own aguinaldo (Christmas bonus) calculator at /es-mx/: the aguinaldo you are owed this year, with the legal minimum of 15 days of salary (art. 87 of the Ley Federal del Trabajo) prorated by the days worked, and a warning if the days you enter fall below the minimum. It uses the same proration as Mexico's finiquito calculator.

  8. 2026-07-15New coverage

    The payslip checker now lets you paste your payslip text: we read the gross pay, the withholding %, and the Social Security deduction and fill in the fields for you to review. The reader only extracts the figures already printed on your payslip; the calculation is still done by our withholding engine, not the AI, and we do not store the text you paste.

  9. 2026-07-14New coverage

    New tool: cost of hiring. Enter the annual gross salary and we break down how much extra the employer pays, concept by concept (common contingencies, unemployment, vocational training, MEI, FOGASA and work accidents), something the net-salary calculator computes but never showed broken down.

  10. 2026-07-14New coverage

    New tool: payslip checker. Enter the gross pay, IRPF withholding percentage and Social Security deduction printed on your payslip, and we compare them line by line against our withholding engine, flagging any difference beyond a reasonable rounding margin.

  11. 2026-07-11New coverage

    New salary percentile tool: enter your annual gross salary and sex, and we work out what share of workers of your same sex earn less than you, by interpolating between the percentiles (10th, 25th, 50th, 75th and 90th) INE publishes in its Annual Structure of Earnings Survey. INE doesn't publish this distribution combined for both sexes or broken down by region, so the tool always compares against one sex's distribution, and below the 10th percentile or above the 90th it shows a qualitative message ("bottom/top 10%") instead of a made-up figure.

  12. 2026-07-10New coverage

    New net-to-gross salary calculator: enter the net pay you want per payment and it works out the gross salary you need to ask for, using the same Social Security and income-tax withholding engine as the net-salary calculator, so the result always agrees with it. To the cent: a gross of 37,449.96 euros a year reproduces, through the net-salary calculator, exactly the net you entered.

  13. 2026-07-10New coverage

    New self-employed (RETA) contribution calculator: from your estimated monthly net income, it works out your bracket and the minimum and maximum fee at that bracket's contribution base, or the flat-rate quota for a new autónomo. Verified against Orden PJC/297/2026, of 30 March (arts. 18 and 37): the total rate is 31.50% (common and professional contingencies, cessation of activity, vocational training and the intergenerational equity mechanism). This is the first coverage of an audience the site had none for; the income-tax estimate for autónomos is a follow-up.

  14. 2026-07-08New coverage

    A region's page that isn't yet verified for the current year (today, the Valencian Community and Extremadura for 2026) no longer 404s: it explains we're verifying its data and links to the changelog and the by-region comparison.

  15. 2026-07-05New coverage

    Fixed navigation on /es-mx/: the country selector had no link back to Spain, and this very changelog feed was missing from the Mexican footer. We also filtered this feed's entries by country, so Mexico no longer sees updates that only affect Spain's regional or foral tax scales.

  16. 2026-07-04New coverage

    Mexico now has its own minimum-wage tool at /es-mx/: the current general and Northern Border Free Zone minimum wage, with source and verification date, plus a checker for whether your salary meets it.

  17. 2026-07-04New coverage

    Mexico now has its own dismissal-severance calculator at /es-mx/: the full indemnity (3 months, 20 days per year of service and prima de antigüedad) on an unjustified dismissal, or only the prima de antigüedad on a justified one, with its own engine verified against the Ley Federal del Trabajo.

  18. 2026-07-04New coverage

    Mexico now has its own finiquito calculator at /es-mx/: proportional vacation by tenure, prima vacacional, proportional aguinaldo and, from 15 years of service, prima de antigüedad, with its own engine verified against the Ley Federal del Trabajo.

  19. 2026-07-03New coverage

    New tool: IRPF by Catalan comarca, with the taxable base and tax due per filer in 36 of the 43 comarques (Idescat data based on Spain's Tax Agency), compared against the Catalunya average. Bages, Osona, Segarra, Solsonès, Vallès Oriental, Moianès and Lluçanès don't have this series published yet.

  20. 2026-07-03New coverage

    New tool: average salary by Comunidad Autónoma, from official INE data (2024 Annual Structure of Earnings Survey), broken down by occupational-qualification tier and compared against the national average.

  21. 2026-07-03New coverage

    Mexico now has its own homepage at /es-mx/: the same live gross-salary split (net, ISR, IMSS), with the still-missing Mexican tools marked as coming soon. Along the way, every peso figure now shows "MXN" instead of an ambiguous "$" symbol, and every salary field (in Mexico and in Spain) carries its currency visibly next to the number.

  22. 2026-07-03New coverage

    Mexico now has its own net-salary calculator at /es-mx/: federal ISR, the subsidio para el empleo credit, IMSS and INFONAVIT contributions, with its own engine and data verified against official sources (DOF, SAT, IMSS, CONASAMI).

  23. 2026-07-02New coverage

    Added the Canary Islands to the regional deduction for primary-residence rent: 24% of rent paid, capped at 740 EUR a year.

  24. 2026-07-01New coverage

    Added the regional deduction for primary-residence rent, starting with the Comunidad de Madrid, to the annual IRPF settlement.

  25. 2026-06-28New coverage

    Extended coverage to all 19 territories: the 15 common-regime comunidades, the foral territories (País Vasco, Navarra) and the autonomous cities (Ceuta, Melilla), each with its own calculation path.
