Traditional PR operates on relationships, intuition, and an extraordinary amount of manual labor — researching journalists, crafting pitches one at a time, and hoping your email lands at precisely the right moment. Automation removes most of that labour without removing the person. We engineer outreach systems that identify the right reporter and draft pitches from their recent coverage, timed for when they are most likely to read them — and then hand the draft to your team, who approve and send it.
The system begins with journalist intelligence gathering. Our AI continuously indexes bylines across thousands of publications, tracking each journalist's beat, publication frequency and the subjects they return to. When you need coverage for a product launch, funding round or thought leadership piece, the system queries that index to surface reporters actively covering your vertical rather than a static media list. This is targeted outreach, not spray-and-pray. It is also profiling of identifiable people, which is why the media list is built from published bylines and licensed sources, carries an opt-out in every message, and comes with the transparency notice the GDPR expects.
The hyper-personalized pitching engine is where the real leverage occurs. Each pitch is drafted by analysing the journalist's recent published articles, extracting the themes and angles they favour, then framing your story accordingly. The result is a three-sentence pitch grounded in what that reporter actually writes about. We measure response rate against your existing outreach rather than against an industry blast figure we cannot source.
Then there's newsjacking — the art of inserting your brand into breaking news cycles. The monitor watches public news feeds, wire services, Google Trends and licensed social-listening APIs. When a story breaks that aligns with your domain expertise, the system drafts expert commentary, identifies the journalists covering it and puts a timed pitch in front of your approver within minutes rather than the next morning. The window is narrow; the machine closes the research gap, and a person still decides what goes out.
