PressPilot
PressPilot is a press release platform for writing, distribution and campaign tracking. It is aimed at founders, PR agencies and lean communications teams, and the maker says it works best for teams sending 1 to 10 campaigns a month. Users can search a reported database of 46,701 verified journalist contacts across 78 countries, then filter by beat, outlet type, location or engagement history. AI can generate releases in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese for five credits each. Campaign reports track opens, clicks and replies in real time and can be exported as CSV or PDF. Each account also includes a branded newsroom on the user’s domain, with release archives and media embeds. PressPilot offers web and API access, plus integrations that vary by plan: HubSpot on Growth and Scale, Zapier automation, and webhooks on Growth. The maker says data is stored in the EU and lists GDPR-related features. A free plan includes five credits for new accounts; Startup costs €19 a month, excluding VAT. PressPilot does not guarantee a release will lead to publication.
