My name is Alex Heath. I’ve been a tech reporter and editor for over a decade at The Verge, The Information, Business Insider, and other outlets. I started Sources in September 2025.
I also co-host ACCESS, a podcast about the tech industry’s inside conversation.
I’ve broken agenda-setting scoops and have interviewed many of Silicon Valley’s top leaders, including Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, Demis Hassabis, and more. My reporting has been featured in outlets including The New York Times, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, CNBC, and Bloomberg News. It has also been cited in congressional hearings, lawsuits, and on Saturday Night Live. I’ve appeared onstage at SXSW, Web Summit, Code, HumanX, and other conferences.
You can find me elsewhere on X, LinkedIn, Threads, Instagram, and Bluesky.
Editorial policy
Sources is an independent, reader-supported publication with no outside investors.
Ads that appear in the newsletter are sold separately from editorial and don’t influence what I cover. Advertisers don’t see stories ahead of time or choose which stories run beside their ads. Anything paid for is disclosed.
When I cite information I’ve learned from anonymous sources, I’m aware of their identities and have chosen not to disclose them. Usually, I do this to protect someone’s identity.
