Pitching Guidelines


We pay for clean editorial prose and deep-dive technical investigations. We do not accept sponsored posts or marketing partnerships.

What We Want

1. Case Studies: Meticulous post-mortems of custom automation pipelines. Show us the architecture, tell us where it broke down, and quantify the results.

2. Tool Critiques: Uncompromising 30-day reviews of new AI tools in professional production environments.

3. Essays: Analytical pieces on tech ethics, the economics of local-first design, and the cognitive impacts of autocomplete culture.

Pitching Process

Send a 300-word proposal to Shivampandey49911@gmail.com outlining:

- Your thesis or the architecture you want to describe.
- Your background and hands-on exposure to the tool.
- A proposed word count and layout schematic.

Our editing rates start at $500 for 1,200-word critiques, scaling up to $1,200 for extensive architectural teardowns.
