Real-time open calls for pitches, essays, and reported features — curated by writers, for writers. No more hunting through newsletters and social posts.
The Byline exists because freelance writers deserve better infrastructure. The editor contacts, the open calls, the rate benchmarks — this information exists, scattered across Twitter threads, Slack channels, and DMs between writer friends. We put it in one place.
The data is crowdsourced and curated. Every entry is submitted by a working writer. Nothing is scraped, nothing is invented. If something is wrong, you can correct it.
Free forever for the basics. Pro for the full picture.
