A Media Database built on journalist content
Pitching just got personal
A journalist's content can tell you everything you need to know about personalizing your pitches.
Know exactly what reporters want before you reach out. Then watch your coverage and pick-ups soar.
While other tools scramble to tag-on journalist insights, we've been building our database around them since we started.
Journalist’s are telling you what to pitch. It’s time to start listening.
