Support the work.
TemperatureZero is independently built, independently funded, and run by one person. If you find value in what I’m building and writing, here’s how to help keep it going.
The simplest support costs nothing.
Read. Share. Forward a briefing to someone building with AI. Word of mouth from people who trust the work is the most valuable thing I have.
If you want to go further, Buy Me a Coffee is the direct line. Every coffee goes to the real costs: server infrastructure, API access for the automation pipeline, research tools, and the time it takes to build in the open.
Partnerships — on clear terms.
I work with a small number of companies building tools that I actually use or that my readers would genuinely benefit from. I don’t run programmatic ads, I don’t sell favorable coverage, and editorial judgment is never part of the deal.
An honest assessment in front of a technically serious audience is worth more than a thousand uncritical impressions.
Sponsored Tool Spotlight
A dedicated placement in the newsletter — clearly labeled, honestly reviewed. I maintain a rotation: three editorial picks, one sponsored. The sponsor pays for the spotlight. They do not pay for the verdict. I write the review. I retain full editorial control.
Site Review & Feature
An in-depth, practitioner-focused review on temperaturezero.com — the kind of assessment readers rely on to make real tooling decisions. Written in the TZ voice, with the same standards I apply to everything I publish.
Custom Partnership
For companies with deeper collaboration in mind — co-produced technical deep dives, infrastructure case studies, or sponsored research. Every format is designed around genuine reader value, not marketing collateral. I’ll work with you to find the right shape.
The Audience
Readers here are developers, builders, and systems thinkers — people who use information as an input to real decisions. They chose this site because they’re done with noise. Your product reaches them in a context of trust.
Every partnership at TemperatureZero follows the same editorial rules as everything else I publish.
- → All sponsored content is clearly and permanently labeled. No exceptions.
- → I retain full editorial control over tone, framing, and conclusions.
- → Sponsorship availability never influences what I choose to cover.
- → If a tool doesn’t merit recommendation, I say so — even if there’s a partnership attached.
- → I cover tools with no business relationship just as often as those with one.
