Who reads zPlatform AI

Our readers are SaaS founders, AI builders, in-house tech marketers, agency owners, freelance consultants, and SMB operators in the buying decision phase. They are active in the AppSumo / Dealify / SaaS Pirate ecosystem and trust hands-on, opinionated content over generic listicles. If your post helps them make a smarter purchase or implement AI more effectively, it will land.

Topics we accept

Posts that show real testing, real data, or real implementation lessons. The bar is high - average accepted submissions get 1-2 editing rounds before publishing.

  • AI tool comparisons (head-to-head, ranked, with real data)
  • Hands-on AI tool reviews (with screenshots and use cases)
  • AI for SEO, content, marketing, automation - implementation guides
  • AI workflow case studies (results-driven, with metrics)
  • AI chatbot and AI agent implementation case studies
  • Marketing automation and email automation teardowns with real campaign numbers
  • AI prompt engineering for specific verticals
  • Tech and software build notes - shipping an AI feature, and what it cost
  • SaaS lifetime deal teardowns and analysis
  • AI ethics, governance, and compliance for businesses
  • Industry trend pieces backed by primary research

What we will reject without reading past the pitch:

  • Generic ChatGPT explainers ("What is ChatGPT?" / "10 things ChatGPT can do")
  • Listicles without hands-on testing
  • Posts that are thinly disguised promotion of one product
  • AI-generated content with minimal human editing
  • Re-spun versions of content already published elsewhere
  • Anything below 1,500 words

Write for Us: SaaS, AI, Tech & Marketing Niches

Looking to "write for us" on a specific topic? Each niche has slightly different evidence and angle expectations. The pitch form below routes to the right editor - note the niche when you submit a guest post.

Write for Us: SaaS

SaaS deal teardowns, lifetime-deal vs subscription analyses, vendor stability post-mortems, SaaS pricing strategy pieces, and SaaS-specific workflow implementations. Strong fit if you have hands-on data from running a SaaS LTD in real client work. This is the highest-acceptance lane on the page.

Write for Us: AI Tools

AI tool reviews, head-to-head comparisons, prompt-engineering deep dives, AI agent / workflow case studies, vector-database benchmarks. Must include real screenshots from the tool, not vendor press kits, and at least one specific result you cannot get from the marketing page.

Write for Us: AI SEO

AI SEO tool comparisons, before/after ranking case studies, AI Overview / SGE optimisation strategies, schema-markup deep dives for AI search, link-building with AI assistance. GSC screenshots strongly preferred.

Write for Us: AI Marketing

AI for content marketing, ad-creative generation, customer-research workflows, and marketing attribution with AI assistance. Real campaign data + before/after metrics or get rejected.

Marketing Automation: Write for Us

Email automation sequences, lifecycle and onboarding flows, lead scoring, CRM plumbing, and platform migrations (HubSpot, Klaviyo, ActiveCampaign, n8n, Make). Marketing automation "write for us" pitches need list size, send volume, reply rates, and revenue attributed - not screenshots of an empty workflow canvas.

Write for Us: Chatbot & AI Agents

Write for us chatbot pitches should name the framework and model, show the prompt or graph architecture, and report a measured number: containment rate, deflection rate, CSAT delta, or support cost per ticket before and after. Voice agents and RAG support bots welcome. Vendor comparisons only if you have actually deployed both.

Write for Us: Tech & Software

Write for us + tech means engineering-side reality: what it cost to ship an AI feature, token and infra bills, latency trade-offs, evaluation harnesses, model-swap post-mortems. To submit a guest post, software teardowns and migration write-ups both qualify. Launch announcements and funding news do not.

Write for Us: Lifetime Deals

LTD evaluation frameworks, vendor-failure post-mortems, marketplace comparisons (AppSumo vs Dealify vs PitchGround), workflow stacking with multiple LTDs. See our LTD coverage for the editorial bar.

Write for Us: AI Affiliate Programs

Affiliate program comparisons, payout-rate teardowns, niche-specific AI affiliate strategies, and programme-stability analyses. Browse our affiliate database for context.

Accepted pieces publish on the zPlatform SaaS blog and get filed into the matching category alongside our hands-on AI reviews and implementation guides. Read two or three of those before pitching - they set the bar you are writing to.

Guest post guidelines

Read these before you write. Submissions that do not meet the basics get bounced.

Length
1,500 - 3,500 words. Quality over quantity. Cut anything that does not earn its place.
Originality
100% original work. Not published elsewhere. We run plagiarism + AI detection on every submission.
AI assistance policy
You can use AI to research, outline, or polish. But the analysis, opinions, screenshots, and examples must come from your hands-on work.
Voice
Honest, specific, opinionated. We prefer "Tool A is better for X because Y" over "Both have their pros and cons".
Evidence
Every claim that can be supported by data should be. Pricing pages, official docs, test results, screenshots, GSC/GA4 data, third-party reviews.
Links
Up to 2 contextual dofollow links to your own work. Affiliate links must be disclosed and rel="nofollow sponsored". Promotional links to your service get rejected.
Images
Original screenshots only. No stock photos, no AI-generated hero art. We will help you with optimised featured images.
Format
Submit as Google Doc with comment access, or markdown via this form. Include H2/H3 structure and a one-paragraph author bio.

Pitch your SaaS or AI guest post

Pitch first - do not send a finished draft. Keep it specific: topic, niche, why it fits zPlatform, what data you have, your background.

By submitting you confirm the pitch is original work and you have read the guidelines above.

Or pitch directly: delon@zplatform.ai - put "Guest post pitch" in the subject line.

Write for Us FAQ: SaaS & AI Guest Posts

Can I "write for us" on SaaS, AI, AI SEO, or AI marketing topics?

Yes. zPlatform actively accepts "write for us" guest-post submissions across SaaS, AI tools, AI SEO, AI marketing, chatbots, marketing automation, lifetime deals, and AI affiliate programs. We publish hands-on, data-backed pieces, not vendor rewrites. Pick your niche above, then pitch via the form below or email delon@zplatform.ai.

Do you accept a SaaS write for us guest post pitch?

Yes. A SaaS write for us guest post is our single most common accepted submission. The strongest SaaS pitches are deal teardowns, lifetime-deal versus subscription maths, pricing-strategy breakdowns, vendor-stability post-mortems, and SaaS workflow implementations you ran for a real client. Bring the numbers and the screenshots and you will clear the bar.

Can I submit a guest post about software or a tech product?

Yes, if it is genuinely useful rather than a launch announcement. To submit a guest post, software and tech angles that work here are build notes (what it cost to ship an AI feature, and what broke), stack teardowns, migration write-ups, and benchmark comparisons. What does not work: press releases, funding news, or a walkthrough of your own product dressed up as a tutorial.

Do you take marketing automation or chatbot guest posts?

Yes. Marketing automation "write for us" pitches need real campaign data - list size, send volume, open and reply rates, revenue attributed, before and after. For write for us chatbot pitches we want the build details: the framework, the model, the containment or deflection rate you actually measured, and the support-cost delta. Theory-only pieces on either topic get rejected.

Does zPlatform publish AI guest posts on its SaaS blog?

Yes. Accepted AI guest posts are published on the zPlatform SaaS blog at zplatform.ai/blog/ and filed into the relevant category, where they stay permanently with your byline. They are also eligible for inclusion in our best-of and comparison hub pages when they earn it, which is where most of the long-term traffic to a guest post comes from.

Are you looking for an AI guest post writer or writing service?

No. We accept pitches from individual authors with real hands-on experience, not bulk AI guest post writer services or agencies submitting unattributed content. You can use AI to research or polish a draft (see our AI assistance policy below), but the analysis, screenshots, and opinions must be your own. Posts that read as AI-generated get rejected.

What are the "write for us" guidelines and word count?

Guest posts must be 1,500 to 3,500 words, 100% original (we run plagiarism and AI-detection checks), and backed by real screenshots, test results, or first-party data. You get a byline with up to 2 dofollow links. Read the full content guidelines below before you pitch.

Do you pay for guest posts?

No, we do not pay cash for guest posts. The compensation is reach (15K+ readers), permanent SEO real estate on a real publication, and authority for your byline. If you are looking for paid content work, this is not the right fit.

How long does the review process take?

Initial response within 5 business days. Full editorial review on accepted pitches takes another 7-10 days. Publishing usually happens within 4 weeks of acceptance, depending on editorial calendar fit.

Can I include affiliate links in my post?

Up to 1 affiliate link is allowed if it is contextually relevant and clearly marked rel="nofollow sponsored". You must disclose the affiliate relationship in the article. Posts that read like affiliate sales pages get rejected.

Can I republish my post on Medium / LinkedIn / my own site?

Not as the same article. After publishing on zPlatform you can summarise the key takeaways elsewhere with a "Originally published on zPlatform" attribution and a canonical link, but the full piece stays exclusive to us.

What topics do you reject most often?

Generic ChatGPT explainers, listicles built without hands-on testing, "Top 10 AI tools" posts that just rephrase vendor marketing, and pitches that are clearly written to promote one specific paid tool. We also reject anything obviously AI-generated.

Can my agency / team submit a post under one of our writers?

Yes, as long as the writer named is the actual author and we can verify their identity (LinkedIn or Twitter check). We do not accept ghost-written posts where the credited author had no involvement.

What happens after my post is published?

You get a published date confirmation, a permanent canonical URL, a copy of the live post for your portfolio, and inclusion in the next newsletter. We monitor performance for 30 days and will email you with traffic + engagement data.

I have an idea but I am not sure if it fits - can I check first?

Yes - send a 2-3 sentence pitch via the form below or directly to delon@zplatform.ai with subject "Guest post pitch". Faster than writing a full draft that does not fit.

Can I submit a sponsored post (paid placement)?

No - sponsored posts and editorial guest posts are kept completely separate. If you want a paid placement, contact us about featured ad spots on listing pages instead. Editorial guest posts must have no payment in either direction.

Is this the right page if I searched "write for us" + saas?

Yes. Whether you searched write for us saas, saas write for us, write for us saas ai, write for us ai tools, write for us chatbot, seo "write for us", write for us + tech, or any bracketed or plus-sign variant of those, this page is the one you wanted. It is the single canonical set of zPlatform write for us guidelines, and the pitch form on it routes to the editor for every niche we cover.
