About Substack
Help build a better future for writing. Substack lets writers connect with their audience on their own terms and earn money doing it. We make it simple for writers to publish to an email list that they own, get discovered on the web, and charge for subscriptions.
More than 500,000 people pay to subscribe to writers across the Substack network, and the top writers make millions of dollars a year. Substack’s model depends on the success of writers using Substack – we only make money when they do.
Our team believes that what you read matters and writing is valuable. We’re here to help writers go independent and thrive, and we’re hiring.
What you read matters.
So we hire people who care deeply about reading and writing.
Subscriptions are better than ads.
Great things are built by small groups of exceptional people. We work fast, make bold bets, and then course-correct as needed.
We work in service of writers.
Our teams build both for and with writers, providing Substack writers with the best terms, services, tools, and programs on offer.
We believe in the free press and in free speech.
We do not believe those things can be decoupled. You can read more about our views on content moderation on our blog.
