2 Media Relations AI Agents, Live in Production.
2 live agents automate media relations within marketing. 1 runs on a schedule and 1 runs on demand. Each one publishes the inputs it needs, the steps it works through and what it hands back.
-
Brand Visibility Tracking
Track where the brand is being mentioned publicly, separate earned coverage from our own output, and say whether our messages are actually being picked up.
-
Press Release Drafting
Draft a press release to house standards from an announcement brief — structure, dateline, boilerplate and a proposed quote — then check it before it reaches the press office.
Separating earned coverage from your own output
Brand visibility reporting is easy to inflate without meaning to. A mention count includes your own blog, your own social output and syndicated versions of your own release, so the number rises whenever you publish more — which reads as momentum and is actually just activity. The question that matters is whether your intended messages are being picked up in coverage you did not write, and answering it requires separating earned from owned and then reading the coverage for message rather than counting it. Press release production has its own friction: releases arrive at the press office off-standard — wrong structure, missing dateline, stale boilerplate, no usable quote — and the rewrite consumes the time that should have gone into placement.
These agents handle both. Brand Visibility Tracking tracks where the brand is being mentioned publicly, separates earned coverage from your own output, and says whether your messages are actually being picked up. That separation is what makes the metric honest, and the message assessment is what makes it useful. Press Release Drafting drafts a release to house standards from an announcement brief — structure, dateline, boilerplate and a proposed quote — and checks it before it reaches the press office. The proposed quote is drafted, not attributed as final: a quote put in a named person’s mouth is theirs to approve, and that approval is a separate step from approving the release.
What this moves
- Share of visibility that is genuinely earned
- Earned coverage is separated from your own published output, so a mention count stops flattering itself with your own channels.
- Messages actually picked up
- Whether your intended messages appear in coverage is assessed directly, rather than inferred from the volume of mentions.
- Releases needing a rewrite at the press office
- Structure, dateline, boilerplate and a proposed quote are drafted to house standards and checked before the release reaches the press office.

Where media relations fits in marketing
Competitor tracking, market monitoring and content briefs are the slow part of a campaign. Agents keep that running continuously, so a launch is not waiting on someone to go and read things.

Deploying media relations agents
These run as-is against the inputs listed above. Most deployments adapt one — a different source system, a different tolerance, a different approval path. The first call establishes which.
