Partner with the AI Engineer
building for entrepreneurs.

1:1, not an auction
Why this matters now
Content from a working architect - not a media company.
Most creators in AI sell attention. This platform sells process - what actually ships, what actually holds up in production, what actually moves a business. That attracts a narrower, higher-intent audience. Sponsors buy that alignment, not a follower count.
What founding sponsors lock in
The exchange
- 01
Pre-audience pricing, pre-audience alignment
The content platform around AI Engineering is being built now. Founding sponsors lock in category exclusivity before the audience materializes.
- 02
Category exclusivity by default
First-right-of-refusal on your category. A direct-to-founder AI tooling platform doesn't sell to five dev-tools sponsors - it partners with one.
- 03
Direct relationship with Guy
Not a media buy through an ad network. Real collaboration on content placement, video segments, and shared launches.
What sponsorship looks like
Placement options discussed 1:1 per partner.
- 01
Video segments and integrations
Dedicated mentions inside technical deep-dives and workforce build walkthroughs.
- 02
Content collaborations
Joint posts, tool reviews, architecture breakdowns.
- 03
Brand placement on this site and related surfaces
Named sponsor recognition on pages where it fits.
Pricing and scope are decided on the intro call. Honest posture: channels are still being built - you're underwriting the platform's early phase, not buying against an existing audience.
Fits

Products that compete directly with work Guy ships for clients
What founding sponsors ask first.
Category exclusivity, direct-to-founder placement on content and on this site, first-right-of-refusal as the platform grows, and direct collaboration with Guy on integrations, segments, and launches. The specific mix is decided 1:1 per partner on the intro call.
Not published - founding-sponsor economics are negotiated 1:1 based on category, scope, and duration. Early slots are priced to reflect that the audience is being built alongside the sponsorship, not already in place.
Alignment first, metrics never. A sponsor fits if the product would genuinely serve the builders, operators, and founders who show up here - and if Guy would recommend the tool on its own merit. The disqualifying profile (consumer brands, political, direct competitors to client work) is non-negotiable.
