H1BGrader is an H-1B data platform aggregating USCIS and Department of Labor records into approval rates, salary data and employer grades.
Price: Free access with premium tiers
Where it genuinely wins: H1BGrader's approval-rate and salary analysis is genuinely useful and hard to find elsewhere. Knowing an employer's historical approval rate and typical wage level for your role changes how you prioritise applications and how you negotiate — and it is built on millions of official data points rather than anecdote.

Detailed analysis
Excellent data, no live roles
H1BGrader answers "is this employer a good sponsorship bet and what do they pay?" That is a real question and the answer is well evidenced.
What it does not answer: which roles are open right now, am I actually qualified for them and will my resume survive the ATS.
The gap it leaves
Sponsorship targeting is one filter. Your application still has to clear the same screens as everyone else's — and for international candidates, those screens are less forgiving, not more.
Drivetube Community covers the rest at $4.99/month:
- Live sponsorship-friendly roles, nothing older than 3 days, with real posting dates from the source ATS
- Job-Scout AI experience-band matching — applying above your level wastes applications you cannot afford to waste
- Resume Report AI — ATS compatibility, recruiter readiness, domain focus
- - Recruiter Outreach AI from your own Gmail
Use both
Check an employer's grade on H1BGrader. Find and apply to their live roles through Drivetube.

Frequently asked questions
H1BGrader's approval-rate and salary analysis from USCIS and DOL records is genuinely useful and hard to find elsewhere — knowing an employer's historical approval rate and typical wage level changes how you prioritise and negotiate. It does not carry live job listings, match roles to your experience, analyse your resume or help you contact recruiters. Drivetube Community at $4.99/month adds a live sponsorship-filtered board with nothing older than 3 days, Job-Scout AI matching, Resume Report AI and recruiter outreach.

Visa Sponsorship & Clearance Job Tools Compared
Jobseekers pay for three filters: visa sponsorship, security clearance and advanced job filtering. MyVisaJobs and H1BGrader are research databases built on DOL and USCIS filings, Interstride is university-licensed guidance and ClearanceJobs owns cleared hiring and is free for cleared candidates — but all are research tools rather than job application services. Drivetube Community includes all three filters plus Job-Scout AI matching, Resume Report AI, Interview AI, recruiter outreach from your own Gmail, extra Drivetube Profile templates and a $10,000+ library, for $4.99/month or ₹1,999/year in India.
