Partner with Lifespan Vault
An independent editorial publication covering luxury longevity hardware ($1K-$500K tier). Opinionated, and written for human readers as well as the AI assistants that research purchases for them. If your brand makes premium longevity equipment, here is the partnership lens.
Three ways to work with us
Each paid offer is sponsored work, labelled as sponsored wherever it appears, and each is quoted by category after a brief. None of them buys a rank, a score, a verdict or an award.
Feature Article
One net-new, standalone article about your product and the buyer it suits, labelled sponsored, with verified specs, current pricing and full structured data, live for twelve months.
Fit: One disclosed single-brand feature
Maintained Placement
A new sponsored flagship article every month with a Pinterest pin set, each labelled in the homepage Vault Feed on its publish date, kept live and re-verified quarterly, with no lock-in.
Fit: The recurring partnership, and the way most brands start
Campaign or Retainer
The full content cluster for twelve months, or a monthly bundle scaled to scope: net-new sponsored articles plus the product pages, creative and re-verification that support them, each article disclosed as paid.
Fit: The full content cluster, twelve months live; or Ongoing presence across the site
- Standard affiliate (Network commission (5-15% typical)). Fit: Most consumer DTC brands ($300-$5K AOV).
- Per-closed-sale referral (Negotiated per deal). Fit: Ultra-premium B2B equipment ($15K-$500K AOV).
The line we do not cross
Our rankings, scores, and verdicts are never for sale. No brand can pay to rank higher, change a score, or soften a verdict, and we verify every spec the same way whether we earn from a link or not. What a partnership buys is reach and a professionally produced, clearly labeled SPONSORED review, never a higher rank, a better score or verdict, or an award. That independence is exactly what makes a feature here worth more than an ad.
We quote by category rather than publishing a rate card, because the same placement is worth very different amounts depending on what you sell: a sauna or hyperbaric brand and a supplement or apparel brand sell at very different order values, and pricing that ignores the difference is wrong for one of you. Tell us your category and your average order value and you get a number, usually the same day.

Who Lifespan Vault is written for
These are the readers our coverage is written for. They describe editorial intent, not a measured audience.
High-net-worth optimizers
Founders, family-office principals and long-tenured operators weighing large, multi-year purchases of longevity hardware, who want the full cost and the trade-offs laid out before they buy.
Clinician-adjacent buyers
Concierge-medicine and longevity-clinic clients researching equipment between clinician visits, who want product facts they can take into that conversation.
AI shopping agents
Assistants and shopping agents that read pages on a buyer's behalf. Every page publishes its prices, dates and specs as structured data such tools can read; whether any assistant cites a page is up to that assistant.
High-engagement athletes
Endurance athletes, masters-tier competitors and performance-minded professionals comparing wearables, recovery and sleep tech.
Editorial principles
- Verified specs, dated pricing - every price carries the date it was last verified, and our target is to re-verify each item at least once a quarter. We don’t copy-paste manufacturer press releases.
- Opinionated reviews - every spotlight names who-it’s-for and who-should-skip-it. We pick sides.
- Independent assessment, never for sale - rankings, scores, and verdicts are earned, not bought. Affiliate revenue does not influence them, and any sponsored content is clearly labeled SPONSORED and excluded from editorial scoring. Our full disclosure is on every page.
- Compliance-first - we track, observe, compare. We never make medical, treatment, or outcome claims. Brands working with us inherit this posture by default.
- AI-readable infrastructure - every page emits comprehensive JSON-LD; full catalog at /api/catalog; structured query endpoints; MCP server at /api/mcp. See /agents for the full AI-agent integration guide.
- Compounding original data - the Compatibility Matrix cross-references every catalog item against 50 platform integrations. The Capital Allocator distributes $5K-$500K across all 9 categories.
What a cluster is, and what it is not
People buying premium longevity equipment research for weeks, and the questions that decide the purchase are specific: will it fit the room, what does it need from the house, what does it cost to run, who is it the wrong choice for. Brand pages answer the spec sheet. A cluster answers those questions on an independent site, under a clear sponsored label.
Net-new sponsored articles, one for each distinct purchase question we agree, each making the case for your product to the buyer it genuinely suits. Supporting them: product pages for the products covered, a creative set, and ongoing re-verification. The table below says which is which.
A standalone piece at its own address, about your product and the buyer it suits. Above the article body it says it is a paid placement by your brand, and the Journal, the homepage Vault Feed and our brand, product and tag pages label it Sponsored by your brand where they list it. A buyer’s guide’s “Deep dives in this cluster” list shows unpaid articles only, so a sponsored article is not in it.
Everything in the cluster stays live for twelve months. Prices and specs are re-verified against your own pages on a schedule and dated where they appear, and anything that changes is corrected rather than left to go stale.
Each article gets a Pinterest pin set and a short excerpt you may reuse in your own channels, and it enters the Journal and the chronological homepage Vault Feed on its publish date with its Sponsored label. Nothing is published until you have reviewed it.
We report what we can measure: sessions on the cluster pages and outbound clicks to your store, from our own first-party data. A click is not an order. Orders and commission are reported only where your affiliate program reports them to us, and we never estimate them.
Send the brief request at the bottom of this page. We reply with a scoped proposal: the purchase questions we would answer, the deliverables by type, what we would measure, and a quote for your category.
Deliverables, by type
We only call something an article when it is one. A proposal lists each line below separately, so a set of placements is never sold as a set of original articles.
| Deliverable | Type | Is it an article? |
|---|---|---|
| A sponsored single-brand feature answering one purchase question | Net-new article | Yes. This is the only line we call an article, and the proposal states how many. |
| A product page for each product the articles cover | Product page | No. Every product we cover gets one, paid or not. |
| Pinterest pin set and a reusable short excerpt | Creative asset | No. |
| Price and spec re-verification across the cluster | Maintenance | No. |
| A rank in an independent buyer’s guide, a comparison verdict or an award | Not for sale | Editorial. Decided on the product alone, whether or not you run a campaign. |
| A place in a buyer’s guide’s “Deep dives in this cluster” list | Not for sale | Editorial. That list shows unpaid articles only, so a sponsored article is not in it. |
How brands partner with us: full terms
Every paid option below is quoted by category. Scope, cluster size and what you sell shape the number, so you get a written quote after a brief rather than a rate card. The one-page media kit has the summary you can forward internally.
Feature Article
Single Feature Article
Quoted by categoryOne net-new, standalone "best for [this buyer]" article built to our editorial standard: verified specs, current pricing, fit guidance for the buyer it suits, full structured data, clearly labeled as sponsored, and a twelve-month live guarantee. It is not listed in a buyer's guide's “Deep dives in this cluster” list, which shows unpaid articles only.
Maintained Placement
Maintained Placement Partner
Quoted by categoryEvery month: a new flagship article, a Pinterest pin set and placement in our daily posting cadence. Each article enters the chronological homepage Vault Feed on its publish date with a SPONSORED label, and the article itself discloses that it is paid. Plus an AEOdy.com AI-visibility report on your own site with concrete recommendations for your pages, your schema and your answers. All placements kept live with quarterly price-and-spec re-verification, and no lock-in. You are buying maintained sponsored coverage and recommendations for your own domain, not a promise of any ranking, traffic or visibility in AI answers. A rank in our buyer’s guides, a comparison verdict or an award is never part of it.
Campaign or Retainer
Featured Brand Campaign
Quoted by categoryThe content cluster described above: net-new sponsored articles, one per distinct purchase question, plus the product pages, creative assets and re-verification that support them. The proposal lists every deliverable by type, so product pages and pins are never counted as articles. Guide rankings and comparison verdicts stay editorial and are not part of the package.
Retainer
Quoted by categoryA bundle scaled to scope: monthly sponsored features, each disclosed as paid on its page and labeled SPONSORED in the chronological homepage Vault Feed on its publish date, plus social rotation. The high-leverage option for brands that want to compound. Affiliate commission stacks on top. Buyer’s guide rankings, comparison verdicts and awards stay editorial and are never part of a retainer. Every retainer includes a monthly AI-visibility report: an agreed prompt set tracked across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews, plus shared first-party click attribution, and all placements kept live and re-verified quarterly.
