Reach developers while they choose open-source software
Updated October 10, 2026
Hysen Labs is read by developers comparing open-source and AI projects before adopting one. Sponsorship places your product next to that decision, clearly labelled, never inside the analysis.
What is on the site
- 22,902 open-source and AI projects with a plain-language analysis
- 22,902 analyses reviewed by a named editor
- 83 days of daily GitHub Star snapshots behind the rankings
Audience figures
We share current monthly readers, page views and newsletter opens from our analytics, not estimates, when you write to us. Figures are given per section (project pages, rankings, comparisons, the AI tool directory) and per programming language, so you can judge fit before committing.
Placements
- Site-wide sponsor card. A square logo, product name and one-line tagline in the sidebar of project pages, ranking pages and hubs, shown to every reader on those pages for the booked period.
- Newsletter sponsor line. One labelled line at the top of the weekly issue, for all languages or only the languages you choose (Python, TypeScript, Rust, Go and others).
- Language-targeted run. The sponsor card limited to projects in one programming language or one category, for tools whose audience is that specific.
What sponsorship does not buy
- A place in any ranking, comparison, alternatives list or analysis. Rankings are computed from GitHub data; editorial pages are written and reviewed without regard to sponsors.
- Unlabelled placement. Every sponsor unit says Sponsor, in the same style everywhere.
- Reader data. We do not pass email addresses, identifiers or tracking pixels to sponsors; the only measurement is the clicks on your link, which we report to you.
What we need from you
- A square logo, at least 200 by 200 pixels, on a transparent or plain background.
- Product name and a tagline of at most 80 characters.
- A landing URL. We add no tracking parameters unless you ask for them.
Pricing and booking
Bookings run for two weeks, one month or three months. Write to us with the placement and period you have in mind and we reply with current audience figures and a quote within two working days.
