Sponsorship
Sponsor Day 7
Reach builders who care whether AI tools actually work after launch day, without ever buying a verdict.
They show the demo. We show day 7.
Packages
Three ways to sponsor. Rates on request: hello@day7.dev.
Package A
Friday Receipt: presenting sponsor
The weekly Friday Receipt email and its web edition: the week’s new stamps and re-stamps, in one read.
- “Presented by” line at the top of each issue, clearly labelled Sponsor
- One short labelled sponsor message, placed after the receipts and never between them
- Logo and link on this page for the length of the sponsorship
Package B
“Presented by” the quarterly Day 7 Index
Every quarter we publish the Day 7 Index: how many launch claims held, came out mixed, failed or stayed unclear, across every receipt we stamped.
- “Presented by” credit on the Index page, its share images and its announcement email
- A labelled sponsor note on the Index page, outside the data
- The data, method and verdicts stay ours and are published as they are
Package C
Builder Spotlight: series sponsor
A weekly feature on a real builder and what they shipped with AI: what worked, what broke, and what it cost them in time.
- “Series sponsored by” credit on each Spotlight, clearly labelled
- A labelled sponsor message at the end of each feature
- No say over which builders are featured or what they say
Who can sponsor
Only companies in categories we don’t review:
- Hosting and deployment
- Developer infrastructure: databases, observability, CI, auth
- Security
- Hardware: laptops, GPUs, peripherals
- Finance and banking for founders
- Learning: courses, books, bootcamps
- Recruiting
AI model makers, coding tools, app builders and agent products can’t sponsor, and neither can any company we review or its parent company.
The rules
- Clearly labelled. Every sponsor slot says “Sponsor” or “Presented by”.
- Never inside a receipt. Nothing on a receipt page or receipt card is sponsored, and sponsors never see, shape or comment on a verdict.
- No reviewed company or its parent. If we review a company, it and its parent can’t sponsor.
- The owner approves every sponsor before anything runs.
- We can drop a sponsor at any time if it conflicts with what we review or with these rules.
The full rules are in our independence pledge.
