How Can You Reach Our Quantified Self And Lifelogging Team?

Saga is built around quantified self practice, lifelogging, wearables, automation, and contextual technology. If your note touches one of those areas, we want it to land with the right person instead of sitting in a vague inbox.

Use email for all contact. We do not list a phone number or physical office address because most useful conversations here need a written trail: product details, research scope, interview timing, privacy questions, or links to background material.

Best first step: send a short note to [email protected] with the topic, deadline if there is one, and the kind of reply you need.

What Is the Best Way to Get in Touch With Us?

Start with the plainest version of the question.

A good contact email usually has three parts: what you are asking, why Saga is the right place to ask it, and when you need a response. That sounds basic, but it saves a lot of back-and-forth, especially when the topic sits between personal data, behavior tracking, device ecosystems, and automation.

General questions

For feedback, corrections, topic suggestions, or questions about our coverage, email [email protected].

Editorial context

If you are responding to an article, include the page URL and the specific sentence or section you are referencing.

Privacy concerns

For privacy-related questions, please read our Privacy Policy first, then include the relevant concern in your message.

We read concise messages faster. Attachments are fine when they matter, but a link and two clear paragraphs often work better than a long deck.

How Can Media Professionals Request an Interview?

Media requests should go to [email protected]. Put “Media request” in the subject line so it is easy to spot.

Reporters, producers, podcast hosts, and documentary researchers usually get the best result when they describe the angle before asking for availability. “Wearables and sleep tracking” is broad. “How consumers should interpret recovery scores from wearable devices” is easier to answer well.

What to include in a press note

Your name, outlet, and role.
The topic or working question.
Your deadline and time zone.
The format: written comment, recorded interview, background call, podcast, video, or live segment.
Whether the conversation is on the record, on background, or for research only.

We are more useful on some topics than others. Saga is strongest where personal data systems meet everyday routines: lifelogging, wearable interpretation, quantified self methods, contextual automation, data ownership, and the design choices that shape how people act on their own records. We are less useful for market speculation or device rumors.

Are You Looking to Partner on Contextual Tech Projects?

Partnership emails should go to [email protected]. We review them through a practical lens: does the work help people understand or use personal context more responsibly?

That can include editorial collaborations, research-adjacent projects, expert commentary, workshops, or product conversations where the topic fits Saga’s scope. We are especially interested in projects that treat personal data as something people have to live with, not just something a dashboard displays.

Partnership note: describe the time frame, the audience, the expected contribution from Saga, and any commercial relationship up front.

Better fit

A focused project on contextual technology, lifelogging practice, wearable data interpretation, or automation that affects daily decisions.

Harder fit

A generic sponsorship pitch, broad product placement request, or campaign that needs endorsement more than subject-matter input.

We do not treat every collaboration as an endorsement. In this field, the details matter: what data is collected, who controls it, how long it is kept, and whether the user can understand the consequences.

What Types of Inquiries Do We Generally Decline?

Some requests are easy to decline because they pull Saga away from its purpose.

We generally do not accept requests for paid link insertion, undisclosed sponsored content, mass guest posting, scraped-data proposals, or outreach that asks us to publish claims we cannot verify. We also avoid pitches that turn health, productivity, or personal tracking into certainty theater. A wearable signal can be useful without pretending it explains a whole person.

Common no-fit messages

Guest posts written mainly for backlinks.
Requests to add promotional links to existing articles.
Product claims without enough technical or methodological detail.
Partnerships that require undisclosed commercial influence.
Questions that ask for personal medical, legal, or financial advice.

If you are unsure, send the note anyway, but make the ask specific. A careful two-sentence pitch beats a polished message that never says what you want.

By contacting us, you agree to communicate under our Terms of Service. If your message includes personal information, our Privacy Policy explains how we handle it.

We aim to answer the right messages thoughtfully rather than answer every message instantly.
