Write for us
The Spinoza Journal (TSJ) is an independent publication on AI tools. If you use AI tools in real work and can show readers how to get better results, we want to read your pitch.
Updated Nov 13, 2026What we publish
We publish pieces on AI and tech for people who use these tools at work: founders, operators, marketers, writers and creators. The pieces that work best fall into four shapes.
- Hands-on reviews. At least a week of real work with a tool, and what it is actually good for. We especially want voice, coding agents and on-device AI.
- Comparisons. Two tools that do the same job, both used by you, with a clear verdict on who should pick which.
- How-to guides. Methods that make the reader better at their work: a faster writing workflow, a better AI film, a cleaner edit. Outcomes first, tools second.
- Lessons from production. You shipped something with AI. Tell us what broke, what worked and what you would warn the next person about.
What usually doesn't fit
Knowing this up front saves you time.
- Lists without testing. A list of tools you haven't used rarely helps a reader. Our best-of pieces come from tools we have tested.
- Low-effort content. Use AI to research and outline if it helps, but the experience, the examples and the judgment need to be yours.
- Announcements. "Company X launched feature Y" is news, not a guide. Tell us what it changes for the reader instead.
- General takes. If a piece could be written without using the product, readers can tell. Specific beats general every time.
What you get
- A bylined author bio on one of the most credible independent AI publications, on every piece you write.
- A link to your own site when it is relevant and genuinely helps the reader.
- A path to becoming a contributor. Writers whose pieces perform well are invited to become regular contributing authors, paid for their work.
We don't pay for guest submissions, and we never charge you to publish.
How to pitch
Keep it short. Email pr@thespinozajournal.com with:
- A subject line with your angle, for example "Write for us: why every video model still fails at two-person dialogue."
- Two short paragraphs: the idea, why it matters now, and the tools you would test.
- A one-line bio and two links to your writing or work.
We reply within five business days. If you don't hear back, please send it again.
Editorial standards
Every piece follows our testing methodology and our disclosure rules. We edit for accuracy and clarity, and we may ask for changes before publishing.
