Ownership & Funding

At OnlySky, transparency about who we are and how we're funded is part of how we earn your trust. Here is a clear account of both.

Who owns and operates OnlySky

OnlySky is owned by OnlySky, Inc., a California corporation established in Q2 2024. The company was formed by the original founder of OnlySky Media to ensure the platform's sustainability and independence after the previous non-profit organization operating the site ceased publications in March 2024. OnlySky, Inc. is fully independent, with no parent companies and no outside investors exerting control or influence over our editorial direction.

The company is led by its original founder, who serves as both Founder and Publisher of OnlySky. All decisions about the platform's editorial direction are made internally by the founder and the editorial team, led by the Editor-in-Chief.

No conflicts of interest

There are no external influences or potential conflicts of interest — whether from political affiliations or financial interests — that could affect our content. Should any conflict arise in the future, we will disclose it transparently to our readers.

How we're funded

Since our launch in January 2022, OnlySky has been committed to delivering high-quality content to the 2.6 million readers who have engaged with us. We maintain our independence with a dedicated team of writers, many of whom have been with us for years.

Our primary revenue comes from our readers: over 90% of our income is generated by paying subscribers. We occasionally feature advertisements from select partners in our free newsletter, but our operations are supported overwhelmingly by our subscriber community and by contributions through the OnlySky Tip Jar.
