Get Featured in Wired
Wired is the definitive publication for technology, science, innovation, and the future of business. With a global readership of over 30 million monthly visitors and an unrivalled reputation for spotting the trends that shape tomorrow, a Wired feature tells the world that your brand is at the cutting edge. At United Press, we specialise in crafting the bold, forward-thinking narratives that Wired editors seek — helping technology companies, innovative startups, and visionary brands secure the Wired coverage that accelerates their growth and cements their position as industry pioneers.
The Voice of Innovation and Technology
Wired doesn’t cover companies — it covers ideas that change the world. When your brand is featured in Wired, you’re being recognised not just for what you do, but for the impact you’re making on the future. Wired’s audience includes venture capitalists, technology executives, product designers, policymakers, and the early adopters who drive technology trends. A Wired feature signals to this influential community that your brand is one to watch, invest in, and partner with. Our press release distribution service supports campaigns targeting innovation-focused outlets like Wired.
Our Wired-Specific PR Methodology
Wired has a distinctive editorial voice — intelligent, curious, and refreshingly sceptical of hype. Generic tech PR pitches are immediately rejected. Our approach starts with understanding Wired’s editorial DNA: they want stories about genuine innovation, unexpected connections between technology and culture, and companies that are solving problems in fundamentally new ways. We work with your team to identify and articulate the deeper story behind your technology — the human impact, the scientific breakthrough, or the paradigm shift that makes Wired editors sit up and take notice.
Wired's Unique Position in Tech Media
While publications like TechCrunch focus on funding rounds and product launches, Wired explores the bigger picture — how technology reshapes society, culture, and human behaviour. This editorial philosophy means Wired features carry a different kind of authority. They position your brand within a broader narrative of progress and innovation, reaching readers who think in terms of movements rather than moments. Wired operates across both US and UK editions, each with distinct editorial teams, giving brands multiple pathways to coverage. Our measurement approach captures the full impact across all editions.
Types of Wired Coverage We Secure
Wired Features & Long-Form Profiles
In-depth editorial features that explore your technology, your vision, and your impact in Wired’s signature narrative style. These pieces can run to several thousand words, giving your brand the space to tell a complete story that resonates with Wired’s intellectually curious readership.
Wired Product Reviews & Recommendations
Wired’s product coverage — including its influential Gear section and annual Best-Of lists — drives significant consumer purchasing decisions. We coordinate product seeding, review unit logistics, and editorial outreach to secure the product coverage that converts Wired’s tech-savvy readers into customers.
Wired Contributor & Expert Commentary
Position your leadership team as Wired contributors, publishing thought leadership on the technology trends, ethical questions, and innovation challenges that define your industry. Regular Wired contributions build a powerful body of published expertise that elevates your entire organisation’s authority.
How We Get You into Wired
Our Wired PR process starts with what we call “innovation framing” — the process of identifying the aspect of your business that represents a genuine shift in how things are done. This might be a novel application of AI, a breakthrough in materials science, a new model for digital commerce, or an approach to sustainability that challenges industry norms. We then develop this into a compelling narrative that meets Wired’s editorial standards: original, evidence-based, and genuinely significant.
We pitch to specific Wired journalists who cover your sector, providing them with everything they need to explore the story — technical details, access to your engineering or research team, data and case studies, and visual assets that bring your innovation to life. Our relationships with Wired’s editorial teams across the US and UK editions mean our pitches receive thoughtful consideration rather than a quick scan and delete. Our content creation capabilities ensure every supporting asset meets Wired’s high production standards.

Client Success Stories
AI Startup Featured as Industry Pioneer
A machine learning startup developing novel approaches to climate modelling approached United Press seeking recognition within the technology community. We secured an extensive Wired feature exploring their technology’s potential to revolutionise weather prediction. The article was shared over 8,000 times across social platforms, attracted the attention of three major venture capital firms, and was cited by a government advisory committee in their AI strategy paper.
Hardware Company Drives Pre-Order Surge
A consumer electronics company launching a groundbreaking wearable health device needed credibility with early adopters. We secured a Wired Gear review alongside a broader feature on the future of personal health monitoring. The combined coverage drove 12,000 pre-orders in the first 72 hours and established the company as a category leader before their product even shipped.
Cybersecurity Firm Establishes Thought Leadership
A cybersecurity company with an innovative approach to zero-trust architecture needed to differentiate itself in a crowded market. We placed their CTO as a regular Wired contributor on cybersecurity topics and secured a company profile exploring their technology. Within six months, they were recognised in Wired’s annual list of most innovative security companies and saw a 200% increase in enterprise demo requests.
We report on what matters: publication authority scores, referral traffic generated, backlink quality, social amplification, and downstream business impact. You receive monthly reports showing exactly which placements were secured, their estimated reach, and how they contribute to your SEO profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Key questions brands ask about getting featured in Wired.
What type of companies does Wired feature?
Wired features companies that are genuinely pushing boundaries — whether in artificial intelligence, biotechnology, clean energy, space exploration, digital media, cybersecurity, or consumer technology. The common thread is innovation that matters. Size is less important than the significance of your technology; Wired regularly features early-stage startups alongside established technology giants when the story is compelling.
How is Wired different from TechCrunch?
While TechCrunch focuses primarily on startup funding, product launches, and the business of technology, Wired takes a broader view — exploring how technology intersects with culture, science, design, and society. A TechCrunch article might announce your funding round; a Wired feature explores why your technology matters for the future. Both are valuable, and our multi-publication strategies often target both.
Can my company get into Wired's product reviews?
If you have a consumer-facing technology product, absolutely. Wired’s Gear section and annual Best-Of lists are among the most influential product review platforms in technology media. We manage the entire process — from initial editorial outreach to review unit coordination — ensuring your product is positioned for the most impactful coverage. Contact us to discuss your product PR strategy.
Does Wired coverage help with fundraising?
Significantly. Venture capitalists and institutional investors are avid Wired readers. A Wired feature validates your technology and vision in the eyes of the investment community, often serving as a catalyst for funding conversations. Multiple United Press clients have cited their Wired coverage as a direct contributor to successful funding rounds.
More Wired PR Questions
How long does it take to get featured in Wired?
Wired features typically have longer lead times than daily publications — usually 6-10 weeks from accepted pitch to publication for planned features. Product reviews can vary based on editorial scheduling. Timely commentary on breaking technology news can happen much faster. We set clear expectations during our initial strategy session and provide regular progress updates throughout your campaign.
Is Wired UK different from Wired US?
Yes, they operate as separate editorial teams with distinct voices. Wired UK tends to have a stronger focus on European technology, science research, and policy, while Wired US has broader global coverage and higher traffic. We advise on which edition best suits your story and can pursue placements in both editions when appropriate.

We help AI companies navigate sensitive topics while protecting brand equity and stakeholder confidence.

Our crisis playbooks are developed in advance and tailored to the specific risks facing your business, from data breaches to ethical AI controversies.
