PressPilot
Write, send and track press releases in minutes, not days
Getting press coverage usually means writing a press release from scratch, manually finding journalist contacts, sending individual emails, and hoping someone replies. Most people give up halfway through. PressPilot does the whole thing in three steps. You describe your news, the AI writes the press release. You filter the journalist database by sector, country, language and media type, then send. After that, you see in real time who opened it, who clicked, and who wants to publish.
I built PressPilot because I launched a product once and spent more time trying to find journalist contacts than actually building the thing.
The process was embarrassing. I Googled "tech journalist email" for about two hours. Found a few names. Wrote emails one by one. Hit send and then had absolutely no idea what happened next. One reply came in four days later. It was an out of office.
That was the moment I understood why people just skip PR entirely.
The problem is not that press coverage is useless. It is that the tools built to help you get it were designed for PR agencies, not for founders doing everything themselves. They cost thousands a month, require a dedicated person to run them, and assume you already know how media relations works.
PressPilot is what I wished existed that day.
You describe your news in a few sentences. The AI writes a proper press release. You filter a database of over 10,000 verified journalists by sector, country and language, pick who makes sense, and send. Then you watch in real time who opened, who clicked, and who wants to cover you.
If someone did not open, a follow-up goes out automatically. If you are not sure about your subject line, you can A/B test two versions and let the best one win.
We are already at 2,000 users and growing mostly through word of mouth from people who tried it for a launch and got their first article published without hiring a PR agency.
