About Laterstack
Laterstack is an independent tech news publication. We cover artificial intelligence, technology policy, data centers, quantum computing, cybersecurity and startups.
Our work is built on a simple idea. Technology and power move together, and most coverage stops at the press release. We start at the public record and follow the money.
Who Runs Laterstack
Laterstack is owned and operated by Laterstack LLC, an Arizona company founded in 2025 by Lamar Rice. Lamar is the founder and a reporter for the publication. He and Brianna Rice edit Laterstack together, and every story goes through her before it publishes, where she checks claims against their sources and reviews how AI was used getting there. Lamar is a paid media expert and technology journalist, and a member of the National Association of Black Journalists, Investigative Reporters and Editors, and the Online News Association.

How We Are Funded
Laterstack is independently owned and funded by its founder. We have no outside investors, no corporate parent, and no paid placements. When a story involves a company, product, or person we have any relationship with, we disclose it in the piece.
What We Cover And How
Our beats are AI, tech policy, data centers and energy, quantum computing, cybersecurity and startups. We work from primary documents wherever we can get them, and we say so when we cannot. How we handle errors is in our Corrections Policy, and how AI is and is not used is in How We Use AI.
