The Comp Desk — WC Calculator

About

The Comp Desk turns any webpage into a workspace for NYS Workers' Compensation math.

Highlight a rate, a period, or a settlement clause on an eCase decision, IME report, Litify case note, or Westlaw opinion. Right-click → "Calculate with The Comp Desk" → a side panel opens with the highlighted text as your first message. Claude (Haiku 4.5) parses it, asks any clarifying questions, runs the right calculator, and returns the answer with the equation card and statute citation.

Built by a practicing NYS WC attorney for NYS WC attorneys.
