Sponsorships
Choose where your work meets its reader
Every option here is published in Arabic and English, carries a clear Sponsored label, and stays in our archive. Pick what fits, or write to us and we will propose a package.
Founding partner programme
We are opening sponsorship for the first time this year. Partners who start with us now help build this publication, so they receive the founding partner price on everything they book until 31 March 2027. After that date the standard prices shown under each price apply.
Partners who book before that date keep the founding price for 12 months from their first booking.
The standard price is what each placement is worth in the market. The founding price is a privilege for those who come first, and the work is the same either way: a clear label, publication in two languages, and a permanent archive.
Prices in US dollars. Payment before publication through a secure link, with the methods available in your country.

Read moreReviews and interviews
Requested review
A company asks us to review its product and funds the cost of the evaluation. We test it and publish our verdict as it is, positive or negative. The article states that the company requested the review. The fee is fixed before testing and buys no verdict. The company gets 48 hours before publication to correct facts only, and if we cannot test the product fairly we refund in full.

- The live link as soon as it is published.
- Articles and announcements stay in our indexed archive.
- A clear order form and a payment receipt.
What we need from you
- Article or announcement: the text or facts in Arabic or English, an image you hold the rights to, a link, and a contact for questions.
- Job: title, city, application link, and the closing date if there is one.
- Event: date, venue or stream link, registration link, and the event's own image.
- Sponsorship: your logo as SVG or PNG, and the link it should point to.
How it works
- Write to us with your organisation and what you want to reach.
- We send the order form with the price and publication date.
- Once agreed you pay through the payment link, and we publish on the agreed date.
Cancellation and refunds
All bookings are paid before publication. Send cancellations and date changes in writing to editor@aigossips.net.
Example: a $1,000 placement cancelled 20 days ahead gets $500 back, or the full $1,000 moves to a new date. A new date counts once we confirm it in writing. Your order form repeats these terms. Nothing here removes rights the law gives you.
Before you book
Paid content is always labelled, and no partner buys or reviews our editorial coverage. Details in our sponsored content policy.
