Reach 2 developers who evaluate and build with AI tools. Every issue is pipeline-curated, fact-checked, and written for engineers — not marketing teams.
Rates are locked at current list size. They increase as the audience grows.
Contact us →We're reserving one Founding Sponsor slot at launch. Your brand appears in every issue for the first month, you get a permanent “Founding Partner” badge in the archive, and the rate is locked before the list grows. This slot is offered once — we won't re-run the launch pricing after it's filled.
Get in before the list hits 500. One issue, 150-word sponsor copy, custom CTA with UTM tracking, and a written shout-out in our launch announcement post. Rate locks at today's audience size. No CPM formula — just a flat fee to try the channel with minimal risk.
Not sure yet? Try one issue at half price.
We're offering one introductory slot at 50% off in exchange for a short written result after the send. If it works, you have the numbers. If it doesn't, you spent very little finding out.

Pipeline-curated
Every story is sourced, ranked, and assembled by an automated pipeline that scores relevance, recency, and source reliability — not editorial intuition alone.
Fact-checked
Claims are verified against cited sources before an issue ships. Readers trust the signal because it's earned, not assumed.
No press-release noise
The pipeline de-weights vendor announcements and PR wire content. What reaches readers is technically substantive — which is why they keep opening it.
Engineers, founders, and technical leads who build with and evaluate developer tools. They have purchasing authority, a low tolerance for hype, and a high appetite for technical depth.
Standard packages (Starter, Category) open once the list reaches 500 subscribers.
Until then, the best way in is the Founding Sponsor slot or the introductory offer above. Early sponsors get rates locked before the audience grows — and those rates don't come back.
Contact us to discuss early access →What kind of products are a good fit?
Developer tools, AI platforms, infrastructure products, SaaS for engineering teams, cloud services, and technical education. We do a quick audience fit check before confirming any slot — if there's a mismatch, we'll tell you.
Can I see an example issue before committing?
Yes. Every past issue is in our public archive at thedevsignal.com/archive. You can see exactly how sponsor copy is formatted and placed.
How far out are slots booked?
We publish ~12 issues per month. Slots are sold on a rolling basis. At launch, availability is open — reach out to lock in a date.
Do you write the copy or do I provide it?
You provide a brief (product, CTA, target audience). We write copy in Dev Signal's voice — terse, technically precise, no marketing fluff. You review and approve before it goes out.
What metrics do I get after a send?
Opens, clicks on your CTA link, and CTR — broken down per issue. Category and Founding Partners get a full 48h report with comparison to issue benchmarks.
