How We Vet Projects
All submissions go through our editorial review process. We assess projects based on: technical merit, team credibility, ecosystem contribution, and alignment with Cardano/Midnight values. We prioritise projects that are shipping, not talking. If your project doesn’t fit, we’ll let you know within 1–2 weeks with transparent feedback.
Recording & Logistics
- Interviews are 30–60 minutes
- Conducted via Riverside (we handle setup and recording)
- You’ll receive a copy of the raw video for your own use
- We handle all editing, thumbnails, and publishing
Standard Interviews (Free)
Regular interviews are added to our release queue at no cost. Our vetting process typically takes 1–2 weeks. You can view our upcoming release schedule on our Scheduled Release Google Calendar (subject to change). We publish roughly 3 free interviews a month.
