Requirements

This is an editorial tech publication, not a directory — the only free route is a news tip/PR pitch to [email protected]
Coverage focuses on AI, software, hardware, semiconductors, emerging tech — with a Start-ups topic
Effective pitches per their own guidance: genuinely newsworthy developments, embargo/exclusive where relevant, access to engineers/researchers not just spokespeople, supporting docs/data/benchmarks
No guarantee of coverage; editorial independence is explicit ('We don't accept off-the-record commercial pitches dressed up as feedback')

A genuinely newsworthy angle — a plain 'we launched a SaaS' pitch is weak; funding, technical novelty, or data is stronger
Supporting documentation/benchmarks for claims
Contact info for verification; state confidentiality needs upfront if any

Email [email protected] with the pitch (or [email protected] for coverage suggestions)
Expect review of every tip but a reply only for promising ones, usually within 3–5 business days
If covered, the story appears in the relevant topic feed (e.g., Start-ups, Web Tools) with a dated article permalink

Contact emails live on a different domain — newsdefused.com — not whatsnewonthenet.com
This is a small operation (publisher Jamie Ashcroft, Creamery Media Ltd); 'We can't guarantee coverage of pitches or tips'
No submission form, no listing page, no paid-placement mention — advertising is handled by [email protected] and kept separate from editorial
Batch's /conti URL is dead — nothing else on the domain accepts submissions

A dated article about the product/company appears on whatsnewonthenet.com under a topic feed (e.g., Start-ups) with its own permalink
