Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
Requirements
- Not a directory — coverage is earned editorial; no submission form or listing product
- Engadget covers consumer tech: gadgets, apps, AI, computing, mobile, EVs, gaming, entertainment
- All content is staff/contribution-written by named humans — site states a No-AI Writing Policy and that corporate sponsorships are never accepted for coverage
- The catalog's stored website path (/about/advertist) is truncated — the working page is /about/contact/
Prepare before opening the form
- A consumer-tech angle: a gadget, app, or consumer-facing AI/software story — B2B SaaS is a weak fit
- Identify the editor/writer covering your beat from the masthead on the About page
- Press kit with product details, images, pricing, availability; review unit or demo access if hardware/app
Workflow
- Pick the relevant editor or writer from https://www.engadget.com/about/contact/
- Pitch them directly with a concise, newsworthy hook
- Alternatively reach the newsroom via the Static Media contact channels (phone/address listed)
- Coverage, if it happens, is a staff-written article — no listing page is created
Watch for
- Ownership changed to Static Media in 2026 — historical [email protected] conventions may no longer apply
- No tips email is published on the contact page; only a phone number and licensing/jobs links
- They explicitly never accept sponsorship for coverage — do not offer paid placement
- Contributor pitches must be human-written; AI-generated articles are rejected per policy
What counts as live
An Engadget article mentioning or reviewing the product is published at engadget.com
Not verified
- A current tips/news inbox — none is listed on the about page
- Whether guest/contributed pieces are still accepted under Static Media ownership
