This site started as a fun side project in 2014, and grew more than 300% every year since then from little more than word mouth. Now, Charged has evolved into an independent blog, briefing, newsletter and podcast, which reaches over 200,000 unique readers and listeners each month.

We’re all about making technology accessible for everyone, with our readers coming from many backgrounds: venture capitalists, high school teachers, mechanics, accountants, software engineers, designers and more.
