What the PR Manager does for you

  • Finds the story

    It helps you shape what is newsworthy about a launch, result or announcement.

  • Writes the release

    A press release with a strong headline, the key facts, a quote and your boilerplate.

  • Builds a media list

    Reporters, editors and outlets that cover your niche, with what each one recently wrote about.

  • Drafts personal pitches

    A short, specific pitch for each contact, linked to their recent work.

  • Plans the timing

    A simple plan for when to pitch, follow up and publish.

  • Tracks the replies

    You log replies and coverage, and it suggests the next follow-up.

How the PR Manager differs from sending a release to a generic blast list

A generic blast list sends the same release to everyone and hopes someone bites. The PR Manager shapes the story first, writes a release with facts and quotes you approve, then builds a list of the reporters who actually cover your niche. Each one gets a short pitch linked to their recent work. You send from your own inbox, so replies and relationships stay with you, and coverage is never promised.

From your request to a finished result

It runs inside your Ai1 system and works in the tools you already use. You ask, it works, it reports, and it stops for your OK where it matters.

How the PR Manager works: you ask through the Comms Hub and Ai1 runs the steps: share the news, approve the release, build the list, review the pitches and send and follow up. You approve at: approve the release. It returns a press release.

What it won't do

Example: product launch PR pack

Example with a fictional company. Names, people and figures are invented to show the agent's output. Any resemblance to a real company or person is unintended.

What it was asked: We launch our new compact packing arm on 27 October. Write the press release, find the journalists who cover our space, and draft pitches I can send myself.

Example report
Four tiles for the press release draft, a media list of 24, 8 personal pitches and the embargo date, above a timeline table of steps, owners and status.
Launch plan at a glance
An embargoed press release draft with headline, pilot results and two quotes, beside a fact-check table linking each claim to its source and a table of approvals still needed.
Press release, draft 2
A table of nine journalists listed by role and outlet type, with what each has covered, the angle for them, a fit score and a tier.
Media list: who covers this story, and why
Two short pitch email drafts to a regional reporter and a trade editor, a table of checks across all eight pitches, and a note that no coverage is promised.
Personal pitches, ready for you to send

What it found: 3 findings, with the numbers

  • The press release leads on a small-producer story: a packing arm set up in an afternoon that lifted a bakery's output from 1,480 to 1,800 trays a shift.
  • The media list has 24 contacts scored for fit; the top eight, led by a regional business reporter at 92, get a personal pitch under embargo.
  • Everything waits on two approvals: the head of marketing's sign-off and the pilot bakery's written approval of its quote, before pitches go out on 20 Oct.

This is an illustrative example of the launch pack PR Manager is being built to produce: a plan, a fact-checked press release, a scored media list and personal pitches. It was written by hand from the agent's design for an invented robotics maker, with invented journalists, outlets and figures. No real systems, media or people were involved, and nothing was sent, posted, paid or changed. Run date: .

It asks before it acts

Every Ai1 agent works under human approval. Here is how the PR Manager keeps you in control.

  • Your Ai1 team will tell you when the PR Manager is ready for your account.
  • It never promises coverage. Reporters decide what they write about.
  • You send every pitch from your own inbox. It never contacts reporters for you.
  • Releases use only facts you confirm, and every quote is approved by the person quoted.
  • It suggests only reporters who cover your topic, and it drops anyone who asks not to be pitched.
