This is very cool — a super smart way to decide where to put your startup is to determine where it would be most cost effective (as a function of your burn rate and runway). This tool synthesizes an answer based on a number of different aspects from the overall Teleport dataset.

Hey all, the makers of this from @TeleportInc are hanging out here, would love to hear your feedback and questions.
Especially any founders contemplating your 2016 hiring plans and office locations: is the tool helpful? What else do you wish it did?
Awesome! We could have used a tool like this back in 2012 before relocating to Morocco... who knows where else we might have ended up ;)
Very cool, Sten! Would you guys consider where the startup clients are? within a radius of proximity to clients (especially B2B startups) ;)
@manunoia we have done experiments like Teleport Flock (https://flock.teleport.org -- to find joint optimum between sparsely distributed team members) and timezone-based search constraints in Teleport Cities (https://my.teleport.org).
Good point of bringing the same thinking into group optimizations somehow, have not gotten to that yet. Thanks for thinking along (and sorry for missing the comment before)
Hey @bpedro! Glad you like it. We use various publicly available sources for aggregating salary numbers together with values provided by Teleport Cities users. We fill missing values from a model we built using existing salary data together with several World Bank economic and developmental indicators. Tax numbers are sourced from international accounting firms and national tax agencies.
