The news desk

Submit your story

One form, no tiers. Every submission is read, and accepted stories are published on merit — our standards explain how.

Startup name

As it appears on your homepage.

Startup URL

Founder name

Founder email

The story, in your words

What happened, when, and why it matters. Plain words beat adjectives here.

One number you can prove

Where we can check it

No source, no stat — it’s a house rule.

Link one (your homepage)

Link two (one deep link, optional)

Both links must be to your own properties — we never place third-party links.

Pictures (optional, up to three)

A founder photograph or a picture of the product works best. JPEG, PNG, WebP or AVIF — pictures are resized in your browser before they upload, so photographs straight off a phone are fine. Screenshots of dashboards rarely survive a newspaper page.

What is in the pictures?

I own these pictures or have permission to publish them, and I’m happy for The Founder Gazette to use them alongside the story.

Leave this unticked and we won’t run them — we’ll ask you first.

Publication is free and editorial. Accepted stories join the queue; expedited publication is available and carries a Sponsored label.
