AI infrastructure and developer tools
Cloud, compute, observability, security, data, evaluation, and deployment products with substantiated claims.
Founding sponsor package
Reach people making real decisions about AI.
One concise sponsor read inside a daily, evidence-first briefing for operators, builders, investors, and policy professionals.
No reach guarantees. No crowded ad breaks. No sponsor control over editorial coverage.
The audience fit
A narrow context beats a vague mass impression.
HotTea covers the decisions around AI—not only model launches. That puts relevant products beside reporting on deployment, security, infrastructure, capital, policy, and labor.
Enterprise and professional services
Products and firms helping leaders buy, govern, finance, or operationalize AI responsibly.
Hype, undisclosed claims, or editorial influence
No pay-for-coverage, miracle language, political persuasion, unlicensed financial promotion, or claims the sponsor cannot support.
Where the message appears
Early enough to hear. Separate enough to trust.
- 01What we’re covering todayThe listener gets the editorial promise first.
- 02Clearly disclosed sponsor readOne concise message in the show voice, labeled as sponsored.
- 03Article-titled briefing chaptersEditorial reporting resumes with no sponsor control.
The trust contract
The sponsorship is visible. The editorial line stays fixed.
Clear disclosure. The read starts with “This episode is sponsored by…” and the sponsor is labeled in chapters and show notes.
Copy approval. Sponsor claims must be supported. HotTea can edit for accuracy, length, and house style.
One slot. A maximum of one direct sponsor appears in an episode. There is no stacked ad block.
Measured honestly. Reporting uses available platform and tracked-link data. Early campaigns are sold as flat pilots, not inflated CPM reach.
