Creative AI News is a twice-weekly newsletter for working creators who adopt AI tools: designers, video and motion people, musicians, 3D artists, and the developers who build for them. Sponsors buy a labelled placement in front of that audience. Prices are flat, published, and the same for everyone.

Who reads it

  • Working creators who adopt AI tools early. Designers, video and motion people, musicians, 3D artists, and the developers who build for them. They read to decide what to put into a real project.
  • Opted in, one by one. No purchased lists, no co-registration. Addresses that bounce or complain are removed automatically, so the list is deliverable, not a signup total.
  • Two issues a week, the Tuesday digest and the Friday Creator's Cut, beside a daily site with 1,400 published articles and workflows.
  • A labelled placement, not a click target. Within 48 hours of the send you get the delivered count and your link's clicks with bot traffic removed. Readers come for tool coverage, so a tool that fits the audience gets attention, and we say so before you book if it does not.

What you can sponsor

Every placement is labelled, sits in the house style, and never changes the editorial. Tell us the tool and the dates and we will come back with availability and rates the same day.

  • Primary. Top of one Tuesday or Friday issue, "Presented by", 120 to 180 words, one image, one link. One sponsor per issue.
  • Secondary. A sponsored item inside Quick Hits, 40 to 60 words and a link.
  • Classified. One line at the bottom of an issue, up to 25 words and a link.
  • Dedicated send. An email that is entirely yours, to the full list on its own day. At most one a month, for everyone.
  • Launch week. Primary on Tuesday and Friday of the same week, with different copy in each.
  • Site sponsor. Your creative in both ad slots on every article and blog page for 30 days, with a bot-filtered click report and a live dashboard.
  • Packs. A Starter Pack (Primary, Secondary, 30 days on the site) and a Launch Pack (launch week, dedicated send, 30 days on the site, category exclusivity). Most sponsors take one.
  • Category exclusivity. No competing tool in the same issue or on the site during your run, available on any booking.

Rates are flat and the same for everyone, and we send them on request. Email advertise@creativeainews.com.

What you are buying is a placement in front of working creators who chose to receive this, not volume. If your tool fits what they do, it gets their attention and the report shows what happened; if it does not, the numbers will say so and we will tell you before you rebook.

How it works

  1. Email advertise@creativeainews.com with the tool, the pack or placement, and the dates you want. We reply within two business days with availability and a short sponsorship summary.
  2. Pay the Stripe invoice by card or bank transfer. The slot is confirmed when the invoice is paid, never before.
  3. Send copy, one image or logo, and the link at least five business days before the send. Copy is edited to house style and marked "Sponsored".
  4. Within 48 hours of the send you receive a report: delivered count and your link's clicks with bot traffic removed. You bought the placement, not a click target; the report says what happened.

Cancellation is free up to seven days before the send; after that the fee is owed. A missed copy deadline moves the placement to the next available issue. Prices exclude tax; GST and QST are added for Quebec and Canadian sponsors. Full advertiser terms.

What is not for sale

Editorial coverage, reviews, benchmark results, and inclusion in our comparison articles. Sponsored placements are always labelled, and the newsletter's coverage does not change because a company has bought a slot.
