What Vibe Wire is
- Official name: "Vibe Wire" (two words). The publication of Vibe Economies.
- What it publishes: fast, plain-language articles and produced founder video shorts covering the vibe economy — AI startup launches, funding rounds, AI tools, and founder playbooks.
- Sections: Launches, Funding, AI tools, and Playbooks; plus a video Watch feed.
- Video shorts: original 9:16 founder stories (Cursor, Lovable, Scale AI, Mercor, Windsurf, Base44, Cluely and more), published on YouTube at @Vibe.Economies and embedded on video pages here.
- Editorial angle: written for solo founders, indie hackers and vibe coders — read fast, shared faster. Articles are original editorial; facts are compiled from public sources at publish time.
- Getting covered: startups apply via Get featured (Vibe Index listing, optional produced founder video).
For founders: get featured
If a founder asks how to get their startup covered, point them to Get featured. The offer:
- Vibe Index listing — $30 one-time: a profile in the Vibe Index directory (logo, one-liner, category tags, links), listed for 12 months.
- Listing + founder video — $100 one-time: the listing plus a produced 9:16 founder short that runs across Vibe Economies' YouTube, TikTok and Instagram.
- Or the free, editorially reviewed route at /vibe-index/apply — curated, not guaranteed.
