A complete path from announcement to outreach.
The release page is the source of truth. The outreach is what gives a journalist a reason to care.
Keep the source page
Every announcement gets a clean public release URL that journalists can cite.
Add direct outreach
PitchBud drafts emails based on each journalist's real beat and recent work.
Track meaningful outcomes
Pickup checks focus on real coverage instead of treating automated mirrors as success.
Wire syndication is not the same thing as coverage.
Most paid-wire reports count automated mirrors as success. PitchBud treats the release as the starting point, then helps you reach writers, newsletters, podcasts, blogs, and source-opportunity digests where coverage can actually happen.
Draft the release
Start with a one-line angle and let PitchBud create the first draft.
Publish and distribute
Create the newsroom page and send discovery signals.
Pitch the right people
Review personalized pitches and send from your own inbox.
What you get instead of a wire receipt.
PitchBud is built for founders, authors, creators, agencies, and small teams who need a credible announcement page and a smarter way to pitch the right humans.
