Sponsor enquiries open

Reach app and SaaS builders while they’re asking what to do next.

Why do people try my product but never subscribe?

Example layout. Cards show between completed chat rounds and can be dismissed.

The rate only goes up.

Each new sponsor’s first payment raises the rate for the next one by US$200. No cap. Whatever you pay when you book stays your rate for as long as you stay subscribed.

Renewals, failed payments and enquiries don’t raise it. An enquiry doesn’t reserve a price; an opened checkout holds its quote for up to one hour.

Two placements. One booking.

Your sponsorship includes cards on the Sauce website. Assistants using the direct Sauce MCP or the downloadable Sauce skill can also show a Sponsored footer when both the assistant and the user allow ads.

Our Claude Directory connector is ad-free. Anthropic requires written permission for ads and sponsored placements in its directory. Read the directory policy (section 4.C).

No founder endorsement.

Through the direct Sauce MCP or skill

A text footer after the complete answer, team replies included. The link uses your destination URL and typography follows the host assistant.

Hosts are guided to show at most one footer per conversation and may omit it. Delivery to a host is not a confirmed impression or click; display and reach are not guaranteed.

What you send us

One set of plain-text copy covers both placements. No HTML or Markdown. We add the Sponsored label, the link text and the no-endorsement note, and review everything before it goes live.

58 AI mentors modeled on app and SaaS founders and specialists, free to use on the web, through MCP and as a skill. They are AI personas: the people behind them don’t endorse sponsors.

Live in three steps.

The details.

Who is this for?

Tools, services and products that help people build, launch, monetize or grow mobile apps or SaaS products. Think developer tools, analytics, design, subscription infrastructure and creator services. Every creative is reviewed for relevance.

How often do website placements appear?

The first invitation can appear after six completed chat rounds. Three mentors answering one question count as one round. Further placements need at least ten more rounds and twenty minutes, with a maximum of two in a rolling 24 hours per browser. The same brand appears at most once in that window. Users can dismiss the card.

Is the spot exclusive?

No. This is a shared, frequency-limited placement. The monthly plan does not guarantee a number of views or clicks.

Can my ad appear through MCP or the Sauce skill?

Yes, through the direct Sauce MCP or the downloadable skill when both the user and their assistant allow ads. The assistant may show one Sponsored footer per conversation, including team answers. We count delivery when the assistant receives the footer. That alone does not confirm a view or click. Our Claude Directory connector is ad-free because Anthropic requires written permission for sponsored placements in its directory.

How does the rising price work?

The first advertiser starts at US$399/month. After each new advertiser’s first successful payment, the rate for new advertisers goes up by US$200, with no cap: US$599, US$799, US$999, and so on. Renewals, failed payments, free trials and enquiries do not raise the price. Your rate stays the same while continuously subscribed. If you cancel and later return, the then-current rate applies. The current rate is checked again when checkout opens. Opened checkouts hold that quote for up to one hour; concurrent checkouts opened earlier can retain an earlier quote.

How do billing and cancellation work?

The booking button opens Stripe checkout directly. Billing starts when you complete payment. Send your ad details afterwards; creative is reviewed before publication. Opening checkout does not charge you. Cancel future renewals in the billing portal; the current paid period continues.

Do advertisers see conversations or influence answers?

No private chats or API keys are shared with advertisers. Website cards stay outside the chat messages sent to the AI. Through MCP and the skill, the host receives sponsor copy separately as display content and is instructed to keep it out of mentor advice. Payment does not buy recommendations, rankings or founder endorsements.
