What can be bought here, and what cannot

The rules, in full

• Ordering is never for sale. Every list on this site is sorted by a published formula over public data. There is no paid tier, no boost, and no arrangement that changes a position.
• Listing is free and always will be. Being in the catalogue costs nothing, and paying changes nothing about how a board’s file is written.
• Everything paid is labelled. Sponsored placements are marked SPONSORED on the page and carry rel="sponsored", as search engines ask and as disclosure rules require.
• Research is untouchable. A sponsor of a report does not see it before publication and cannot change a finding. If a report is unflattering about a sponsor, it runs unchanged.
• Editorial marks are formulas. Originality, transparency, activity, survival and data confidence are computed. There is no way to buy any of them.

What is actually available

• Homepage — One slot, below the catalogue.
• Category page — One slot per category, on a page a buyer’s own audience already reads.
• Weekly report — A named sponsor line on a research report, set before the report is written.
• Daily game — One slot on the Daily BidGuess and Higher or Lower pages.
• Newsletter — One slot per issue.

Fixed price, fixed period, one sponsor per slot. No auction, no bidding, no dynamic pricing — which, given the subject matter, is a deliberate joke that is also the correct policy.

What it looks like

The other ways this could pay for itself

Ahead of any of the above: a watchlist for operators who want to be told when their board is written off as dead or when a competitor’s figure moves; bulk access to the historical snapshots behind the public export; and analytics for a claimed board showing the clicks this site sends it. None of those change a ranking either.

Currently 450 boards are on file and none of them has paid anything to be there. Claiming a board is free, correcting one is free, and both will stay that way.
