Publishing is free and stays free. Readers never hit a paywall — that would defeat the reason a company publishes at all. We charge for placement and, later, for running the hub on your own domain.

Verified hub

Free

Verify your domain with one DNS record and your team publishes here: unlimited authors, a hub page at your own slug, placement in the feed, your own RSS feed, and read and vote analytics.

What gets a hub rejected

An editorial hub cannot be the marketing channel for a product whose posts are written to sell it.

One engineering publication, one hub. Separate brands with genuinely separate engineering teams are fine; the same publication or the same company identity duplicated across hubs is not.

Posts have to be technical: what you built, what broke, what you measured.

We reserve the right to decline an application without giving a reason.

These are the product, not the fine print. A feed where anyone can publish anything is worth nothing to the engineer reading it.

Launch slots

One-time · no subscription

A verified hub is editorial and free, and it cannot be a marketing channel. A launch is the opposite by design: it is paid placement, it carries a visible Paid launch label wherever it appears, and it is never mixed in as if it were an ordinary post.

What you are not buying: ranking. A launch gets no organic boost — it occupies one marked slot for its run, then moves to a permanent archive page that stays searchable. Outbound links are markedrel="sponsored".

Prices below are pilot figures, not an offer — they have never been tested against real distribution. The first round is a small number of invited free pilots so that impressions and moderation cost can be measured before anything is charged.
