Who you reach

The buyers, and the people they trust

Security leaders
CISOs, security directors, and the people who shortlist vendors for them.
IAM and platform engineers
The practitioners who evaluate, integrate, and live with identity and security products.
B2B SaaS founders
Builders deciding what to buy, what to build, and how to reach the same buyers.

Why partner here

Worth more than a media buy

Written by a founder, not a content desk

Every sponsored piece is researched and written by Deepak, who built a customer identity platform to a billion users. Buyers read it as a practitioner's assessment, because it is one.

Reach that compounds

Articles here stay indexed and keep being cited in AI answers from ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews long after a campaign ends. An ad impression doesn't.

Measured, before and after

Every placement ends with a 30-day report. Add the AI visibility report and you also see how your brand and competitors appear in AI answers before and after.

Credibility that transfers

Rankings and verdicts here are never for sale. That independence is exactly what makes being featured worth something to a buyer.

Partnership formats

Limited availability, scoped to your goals

Every partnership starts with a written proposal. Pricing is on request and depends on format, category, and timing.

Sponsored research report
One per quarter
A co-funded benchmark or survey on a question your buyers are asking. Deepak owns the method and the results publish regardless, which is why they get cited.
Sponsored hands-on review
Two per month
An in-depth article on your product, written after using it, with one factual-accuracy pass for your team before publication. Labeled "Sponsored".
Featured vendor profile
Two per hub · 3-month minimum
A labeled sponsor placement on a comparison hub, presented in its own block beside the ranked list, where buyers are already comparing vendors.
Tool sponsorship
3-month minimum
A "Presented by" credit on one of Deepak's free security tools, such as the Data Exposure Check, seen by every visitor who uses it.
AI visibility report
Add-on to any format
How your brand and your competitors appear in AI answers, measured before and after the campaign.

Best value

Annual category partnership

Year-round presence in your category: hands-on reviews and updates, a featured profile on the relevant hub, and co-sponsorship of a research report. Invoiced quarterly.

Editorial standards

Independence is the product

Readers trust these pages because none of the editorial judgment is for sale. These rules protect that trust, and with it the value of every placement booked here.

01Rankings, scores, and verdicts are never for sale, and sponsors are judged by the same criteria as everyone else.
02Sponsored placements carry a "Sponsored" label at the top and a line naming the sponsor. Paid links use rel="sponsored".
03Featured profiles sit in their own block and never inside a ranked list.
04Sponsors review for factual accuracy once. Conclusions stay Deepak's.
05Sponsorships are limited to security, identity, AI, and B2B SaaS.
06No link sales, link insertions, or articles written to carry links.

Free

Inclusion in a comparison

Inclusion is free and based on merit. Every submission is reviewed against the same criteria as every listed vendor, and products may be tested hands-on. No one pays for inclusion, position, a score, or a "best for" badge, sponsors included.

Unpaid, in both directions

Co-authored research

Open guest posts are closed. The one route to a byline is original data, held to the same bar as Deepak's own research. Full criteria

Primary data you collected, measured, or ran, that doesn't exist anywhere else.
A methodology you're willing to publish alongside the findings: the sample and instrument, or the benchmark harness.
Not a roundup, an explainer, a listicle, or a case study about your own product.
Published under both names, with a real author bio and a link to your profile.
Edited for accuracy and voice; you review before it ships.

Questions

What does a partnership cost?: Pricing depends on format, category, and timing, and every proposal is scoped to your goals. Bundles and annual partnerships are the best value if you plan more than one placement.
How far ahead should we book?: At least three weeks for reviews and six weeks for research reports. Featured profiles and tool sponsorships run for a minimum of three months.
If we sponsor, will our product rank higher in comparisons?: No. Rankings use the same criteria for every vendor, whether or not they sponsor. That independence is what gives a placement here its value.
Can we review a sponsored article before it's published?: Yes, once, to correct factual errors. The analysis and conclusions stay Deepak's.
What reporting do we get?: Page views, clicks to your site, and engagement at 30 days, plus AI search visibility if you add the AI visibility report.
Can we buy a dofollow link or a link insertion?: No. Every paid link on this site is marked rel="sponsored", and links are not added to existing posts.
Do you accept guest posts?: Not open guest posts. The one route to a byline is original research: primary data with a published methodology, co-authored and unpaid in both directions.
Is there a way to be included in a comparison without sponsoring?: Yes. Inclusion is free and based on merit. Submit your product through the form and it is reviewed against the same criteria as every other vendor.
