We used to brief an agency and wait a week. Now we send our own release in the morning and see pickups by lunchtime. It's honestly embarrassing how simple this is.

Who actually receives my press release?

Verified Australian journalists, editors, producers and influencers we maintain in-house. You select from 150+ categories (e.g. Technology, Health, Finance, Regional NSW, Lifestyle) and we distribute only to the desks that match.

Is there a contract or minimum term?

No. Single sends are one-off. Subscriptions auto-renew every 30 days and you can cancel at any time from your dashboard — no phone calls, no retention scripts.

Do you charge extra for images, logos or video?

Never. The price you see covers everything — logos, images, embedded video, clickable links, multiple categories, multi-region and the SEO version of your release.

How is this different from a PR agency?

PR agencies charge monthly retainers and write your story for you. We're a distribution service — you provide the release, we get it to the right Australian journalist inboxes for a flat price. Many founders use us instead of, or alongside, an agency.

How long does it take to send a release?

About five minutes from start to finish. Paste your release, choose categories, review the preview, and pay — it's typically distributed within minutes of checkout.

How do I track where my release gets picked up?

The simplest and most reliable way is to set up a free Google Alert for your brand name or a distinctive phrase from your release. You'll get an email every time a publication picks it up or mentions your story.

What kind of releases do you accept?

Genuine news — funding rounds, product launches, partnerships, hires, research, milestones, events. We don't accept overly promotional or non-newsworthy material; journalists ignore those, and our job is to protect the value of inbox space we've earned.

Ready to get the word out? Let's send it.

Join the Australian founders and comms teams who skip the agency retainer and run their own newsroom — in minutes, not months.
