How we route every message
Ontonson receives more than 12,000 inquiries annually across editorial, commercial, and legal channels. Each submission is triaged by a dedicated coordinator who assigns it to the appropriate desk within 24 hours of receipt, based on topic, urgency, and existing coverage.
Our editorial team reviews every research-grade inquiry, partnership brief, and press request against our standards for accuracy, disclosure, and reader value. We do not guarantee publication, syndication, or coverage placement, but we do guarantee a substantive response from a named team member.
Frequently Asked Questions
How fast does Ontonson respond to inquiries?
Most reader questions are answered within five business days. Press and partnership briefs receive a substantive reply within two business days. High-volume or complex requests may take up to ten days, but every submission gets a response.
Can I submit a product for testing or review?
Yes. Submit through the Partnerships channel with full specifications, availability dates, and a brief on why the product fits our coverage. We do not accept paid placement, and testing results are reported independently.
Do you accept guest posts or contributed articles?
We commission outside experts on a limited basis. Pitch your topic, credentials, and a writing sample to [email protected]. We prioritize manufacturing engineers, materials scientists, and consumer-rights researchers.
How do I report an error in a published article?
Use the Tip the Desk channel with the article URL and a brief explanation. Our editorial team investigates every correction request and publishes a dated correction notice when warranted, regardless of who originally reported the inaccuracy.
