What we are

Release Core Press is a news site about new software. Every day we watch the places where makers launch — Hacker News, Product Hunt, BetaList, Reddit’s r/SideProject and others — and publish short news items about the products that show up there.

Our items are short on purpose: what the product is, who it is for, and where to find it. If you want the full story, the “Visit” link takes you straight to the maker.

Editorial policy

• Coverage is free. Nobody pays to be covered in our news section, and nobody can pay to change what we write.
• Based on the product’s own pages. News items use only what the maker says on their own site and launch listing. We do not invent numbers, prices, quotes or people.
• Drafted with help, checked by an editor. Drafts may be prepared with software assistance and are reviewed before they are published.
• Sponsored content is labeled. Paid press releases appear under Press Releases, carry a “Sponsored press release” bar naming the issuer, and their links use rel=“sponsored”. Ads are labeled “Advertisement”.
• Corrections. Spotted an error or want an item updated? Contact us and we will fix it.
