Every industry selector in the Estimator maps to a BLS-backed supersector with its own blend of ECI and AHE indices. Use this guide to explain what each bucket covers when you share a Nowcast range with family, teams, or clients.
The memo export lists the industry key, index blend, locality factor, and benefits markup so anyone can rerun the math later.
These are the same selectors you see in the Estimator. Each card explains the roles inside the bucket so you can share context quickly.
