Connects to PayInOne's public product information and employer cost calculator. Muse can pull reviewed product facts with source links and run anonymous hypothetical salary scenarios by country, currency and tax year, then read back the estimated employer cost breakdown. No account or employee data needed.

Example request: "What would it cost me to hire someone in Ontario at 70,000 Canadian dollars a year?"

How to connect: Not in Muse's Connectors list yet, but Muse can still use it. Paste this into Muse: "Use PIO Public Information and Cost Estimates to help me. It is a free service with an MCP server at https://app.pioinc.com/gateway/foundation/mcpPublic. It does not need an API key. Ask me before you share anything with it." Muse asks before it shares anything with the app's site. Meta does not review apps used this way, so only use ones you trust. We tested this in the Muse app on September 24, 2026: Muse used an app's link directly this way and returned a live answer.

Do not use employee records or personal/company information. Explicit country, currency, period and gross/net basis are required. A 
- get_employer_cost_estimate: Read the calculation created by estimate_employer_cost using its opaque estimate_id. Keep that handle private. A completed calculation remains an estimate, not a quote or a complete employer cost. Do not resubmit a processing scenario.
