How features are chosen — merit, never paid

Turtini Magazine is curated on merit alone. You cannot buy a feature, sponsor a placement, or pay to skip the queue — the editorial wall is the whole point. That's what makes a feature mean something to the customers who read it.

What gets a story featured: a genuine milestone, distinctive craft, a launch worth knowing about, or work that exemplifies what the platform makes possible. Editors pull from the open submission pool and from orgs already doing notable things on Turtini.

Being on the platform is enough to be considered — you don't need a press contact or a budget. Keep your public org profile current (logo, description, showcase) so editors have something to work with, and submit stories as they happen via /magazine/submit.

The magazine is the platform's brand front door, modeled on merit-curated editorial discovery — the opposite of a pay-to-play directory.
