I Built PressKit.ai - Automate Your PR Without the $60K/Month Agency

The Problem

Founders spend $60,000+ per month on PR agencies. That's insane for early-stage startups.

I built PressKit.ai to automate what agencies charge a fortune for:

  • Press Release Generation - AI writes professional releases in minutes
  • Journalist Outreach - Find and contact relevant journalists automatically
  • Pitch Tracking - Know who opened, clicked, and responded

Why I Built This

As a founder, I watched peers burn through their runway on PR retainers. Agencies lock you into contracts, assign junior staff, and deliver mediocre results. The whole industry runs on information asymmetry.

I wanted to democratize PR the way tools like Calendly democratized scheduling, or Stripe democratized payments.

How It Works

  1. Enter your startup details - Company name, description, key facts
  2. AI generates your press release - Professional quality in seconds
  3. Find relevant journalists - Curated database by beat and publication
  4. Send personalized pitches - One-click email outreach
  5. Track everything - Opens, clicks, responses in one dashboard

Pricing

$49/month. No contracts. No retainers. No junior account executives learning on your dime.

I'd love feedback from fellow founders. What PR pain points are you experiencing?


Built for founders who'd rather build products than chase journalists.
