For publishers

Build a Review Section with a Dedicated Partner

From opportunity assessment to content updates, we manage the agreed work needed to launch and develop a dedicated review section. You keep visibility into performance and the editorial controls defined in our partnership.

View Partnership Options

Funded delivery

We fund the agreed scope: research, content, technical work and ongoing updates. The publisher is paid under terms set out before launch, with a fixed fee as the primary model.

Specialist execution

Search, editorial and development specialists who work on review content every day, following the methodology and approval workflow agreed with your team.

Clear responsibilities

A written split of roles: what we deliver, what your editors approve, how performance is reported and what happens to the section if the partnership ends.

How it works

From First Conversation to Launch

Each stage ends with something you can review. We agree what “done” means before we start, rather than promising a fixed date or a ranking.

Assess the Opportunity

We review your audience, topic fit, technical setup and the market context for the proposed section.

Result: a written assessment and a clear recommendation on whether a review section makes sense for your publication.
Agree the Partnership

Scope, commercial model, editorial workflow, reporting and duration are defined together with your commercial and editorial leads.

Result: a term sheet and partnership agreement signed off by both teams.
Build and Review

Section architecture, design integration, technical setup and the first batch of content, reviewed against the agreed criteria by your editors.

Result: an approved section that meets the acceptance criteria and is ready to publish.
Launch and Improve

Publication, monitoring, scheduled content updates, corrections and regular reporting on work, audience and section economics.

Result: a monthly report and review meeting, with the next period's plan agreed.

Editorial responsibility

Clear Standards for Content and Brand Safety

We agree review criteria, approval workflows and commercial disclosures before launch. Content responsibilities and correction procedures are documented for each partnership.

Our standards cover authorship, methodology, sources and verification dates, editorial approvals, the disclosure of commercial relationships, corrections and the handling of complaints. For iGaming and betting content they also set out how admissible markets, operators, age-appropriate targeting and mandatory disclosures are agreed for each partnership.

Markets and topics

Partnerships Built Around Your Market

Language, audience, topic and commercial model are assessed for each publication rather than applied as a template. Our initial specialisation is iGaming and betting reviews, and we take on a market only where the proposed activity can be supported editorially, commercially and in terms of the disclosures it requires.

During the assessment we confirm the topics, languages and geography a partnership would cover, and we say so plainly if a publication or market is not a fit.

Audience and language

Who reads your publication, in which language, and whether review content would serve them.

Topic and regulatory context

Whether the topic can be covered responsibly in your market, and which disclosures and restrictions apply.

Commercial fit

Which partnership model suits the scope, and whether the economics work for both parties.

Delivery resources

Whether we have the editorial and market capability to run the section to our standards.
