Can you sponsor them?
Yes. Named Product Faculty, Ariso and 8 more as sponsors in posts.
They publish no price. That is normal here: rates are quoted on request.
Estimate $2,400 to $18,000 for one dedicated send
Ask them directly 240,000 subscribers x $10 to $75 per 1,000 subscribers (beehiiv, 29 May 2026). Benchmark: beehiiv, Newsletter sponsorship cost ↗. This is our arithmetic on a published benchmark, not a quote from the creator.
Specialised B2B lists often command more (beehiiv quotes $50 to $100+).
Who sponsors Product Growth?
10 documented sponsors: Product Faculty, Ariso, Customer.io, Bolt.new and 6 more. Last read Sep 4, 2026.
Product Faculty source Ariso source Customer.io source Bolt.new source Arize source Viktor source Amplitude source Hyperagent source Pendo source SerpApi source
Each name is read from the creator's own words in the post it links to. A tick means the platform also flagged that post as paid.
What we checked
21 checks, 10 passed, 2 to review
| ✓ | Metrics came from the platform | Every audience figure here is a value Substack's own API returned, never estimated or inferred. The price estimate is the one number we work out ourselves, and it is labelled and shows its arithmetic. | not published |
| ✓ | Enough recent posts to judge | 10 recent posts sampled (target 10). | not published |
| ✓ | Newsletter floor: ≥10,000 free subscribers and ≥20 median reactions | 240,000 free subscribers (Substack's own figure, not the author's claim), 48 median reactions across 10 recent issues. | required |
| – | Open rate | Nobody publishes a newsletter's open rate: not Substack, not the author. How many subscribers actually opened the email a sponsored slot sat in is unknown, and is not estimated here. The subscriber count is the size of the list, not the size of the audience. | not published |
| ✓ | A sponsored slot would reach the free list | 40% of recent issues go to the whole list, so a sponsored slot reaches the subscriber count shown. | integrity |
| ✓ | Tech / dev / software engineering | 4 distinct dev signals in the bio and post text: operating system, claude, vibe coding, saas. | required |
| ✓ | Not a gaming channel | No gaming signal in the text. Substack publishes no content category, so this is a text judgement. | required |
| ✓ | Not a hardware / gear channel | No hardware/gear pattern. | preference |
| ! | Target region (US / UK / EU / AU / NZ / SG) | This account has left its location field empty. Region is unknown and must not be claimed. | required |
| ! | Reactions plausible for the subscriber count | 48 median reactions against 240,000 free subscribers is 0.020%. Reaction rates run low on newsletters, but this is low even for that. The list may be far less active than its size suggests. | integrity |
| – | Average is not one viral outlier | No view counts on this platform. | not published |
| – | Comment volume matches the view counts | Comment counts were not returned for this account. | not published |
| – | Reach plausible for the audience count | No view counts on this platform. | not published |
| ✓ | Posted recently | Last post 5 day(s) ago. | preference |
| ✓ | Publishes on a regular schedule | Median 3.7 day(s) between posts; the 10 sampled posts span 37 days. | preference |
| – | Sampled posts are recent enough to compare | Too few dated posts with counts to test whether the sample is comparable. | not published |
| – | Same numbers from two endpoints of the same API | No post from this account appeared in both the search index and the profile feed, so there was nothing to cross-check. | not published |
| – | Verified against the platform's own published feed | Substack publishes no independent public feed to check the API's numbers against. YouTube is the only platform here where that second source exists. | not published |
| ✓ | An independent creator, not a company's own channel | Nothing marks this as a company-run channel: it is not a known company account, the name carries no corporate designation, and the bio is not written in a company's voice. | required |
| – | Same person confirmed on other platforms | No other public profile was linked from this account, so this record covers one platform only. | not published |
| – | Runs paid promotions (platform-declared) | Sponsorships shown for this creator are parsed from the text of their own post descriptions, so they are suspected rather than platform-confirmed. | not published |
