Write for TechGrid

We publish sharp, builder-grade pieces on AI, Startups, Fintech, Product, Marketing, Cybersecurity, Mobile, Sustainability, Self-Development for builders, VC, and people who move tech forward. If you’ve got a take that makes practitioners think and act—pitch us.

What we’re looking for

A strong point of view

Start a real debate. Don’t tell us “talk to users early” (everyone does). Tell us when ignoring feedback is the right call—and why it saved your roadmap. We love arguments that challenge sacred cows and still respect facts.

Your voice (and a little wit)

Write like a human with scars and stories. If you learned it the hard way, say so. We’re not the FT; it’s okay to be dry-funny, precise, even a touch provocative—so long as it’s useful.

Evidence that travels

Make a claim, then back it up: numbers, public filings, repo links, incident reviews, dashboards, credible studies. Anecdotes are welcome—just pair them with sources. If there’s a counter-case, mention it and explain why your view still stands.

Focused, shippable scope

Pick one idea and drive it home. “Hiring” is huge; “Why your first 10 hires need a ruthless ‘people owner’” is concrete. Timely angles are great—if the world is watching your niche this week, jump in with a builder’s take.

What we’re not looking for

  • Self-promo or sales copy. Mention your product only if it genuinely clarifies the topic.

  • Ghostwritten corporate puff. Readers smell it.

  • Pre-written drafts looking for a home. Pitch the idea first; we’ll green-light the outline before you write.

Topics & formats

  • News (300–600 words): fast, sourced updates with links to filings/announcements.

  • Article (900–1,600): analysis, teardowns, frameworks, postmortems, experiments.

  • Interview: Q&A with operators who’ve shipped something non-obvious (clear takeaways).

  • Guest Post (900–1,400): opinion from practitioners or investors with disclosures.

Categories: AI, Startups, Fintech, Marketing, Product, Cybersecurity, Mobile Apps, Sustainability, Self-Development for builders, VC.

VC submissions — add these fields

Round type, amount + currency, lead investor(s), other investors, pre/post valuation (if public), sector/region, announcement date, link to the source. Add one sentence on “what this money changes next.”

Quality bar (E-E-A-T)

  • Originality: unpublished elsewhere; disclose conflicts.

  • Primary sources: link to docs, PRs, talks, repos, dashboards.

  • Clarity: tight lede with a thesis; plain language; short paragraphs.

  • Utility: end with 3–6 concrete takeaways, a checklist, or a mini-playbook.

  • No AI-generated prose. Don’t draft or paraphrase with LLMs. Grammar tools are fine; a human must write and fact-check the piece. Label any AI-made visuals.

Visuals & formatting

  • Lead image 16:9 (≥1600×900), rights-cleared, with descriptive alt text.

  • Optional 2–3 charts or annotated screenshots (with sources).

  • Use H2/H3, bullet points, code snippets where relevant; pull-quotes sparingly.

Length & editing

  • Target length: 600–800 words for most op-eds; analysis can go to 1,600.

  • Our editors will sharpen structure, headings, and language. We’ll fact-check claims and may ask for more sources.

 Yes—if they’re fair, sourced, and constructive for builders.
