The reality

PR hasn't changed in decades.
The world it operates in has.

The media landscape moves in hours. Journalists change beats mid-quarter. LLMs are forming opinions about your brand right now — with no input from you. Your competitor just landed a TechCrunch feature while your team was assembling a media list in a spreadsheet.

The gap isn't your story. The gap is the machinery between having something worth saying and getting it heard.

How Herald works

One loop. Always running.

Every PR professional runs the same cycle: perceive, strategize, create, deliver, measure, learn. Herald runs it at machine speed — and every rotation makes the next one sharper.

01 — PERCEIVE

See everything

500K+ news sources, social platforms, podcasts, newsletters, and LLM outputs — monitored in real time. Not just mentions. Narrative frames. Sentiment trajectories. Competitive signals. Opportunities forming before anyone else sees them.

02 — STRATEGIZE

Find the angle

The agent identifies trending topics your brand can own, journalists seeking sources, gaps in competitor coverage — then builds a plan with the right story, right targets, and right timing. You approve the strategy. Herald builds the playbook.

03 — CREATE

Craft the narrative

Pitches, press releases, talking points, op-eds — generated in your brand voice. Every piece personalized to the recipient: their beat, their recent work, their preferences. Not a mail merge. A conversation starter.

EVERY ACTION PRODUCES DATA THAT IMPROVES THE NEXT
04 — DELIVER

Reach the journalist

Smart sequencing with personalized follow-ups, sent at optimal times, tracked to the open. Exclusives negotiated. Source requests answered within the deadline. Nothing goes out without your approval until you say otherwise.

05 — MEASURE

Prove the impact

Coverage tracked across media and LLM outputs. Message pull-through scored. Website traffic attributed. Share of voice calculated against competitors. PR finally has a scorecard your CFO will read.

06 — LEARN

Get smarter

Herald remembers which angles landed, which journalists responded, which timing performed, which subject lines opened. Every cycle sharpens the next. After six months, Herald knows your media landscape better than any new hire could in years.

Capabilities

Not a dashboard. A colleague.

Herald doesn't wait to be asked. It shows up with a briefing, works alongside you all day, and reports back with results.

LLM reputation monitoring

Track how ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, and Grok describe your brand. Detect misinformation. Measure your position in AI-generated recommendations. This is the new surface area — and no one else is watching it.

How we think

Built on beliefs about how
agents should work.

1

Human-on-the-loop, not in the loop

You set the strategy and approve what matters. Herald handles everything else. The approval gates are real — nothing goes out without your sign-off until you grant that trust. Your judgment is irreplaceable. Your time on mechanical tasks is not.

2

Memory is the moat

Herald remembers every interaction, every journalist preference, every pitch that landed, every angle that fell flat. This memory compounds. After six months, the advantage is measurable. After a year, it’s structural. After two, it’s irreplaceable.

3

Closed-loop learning

Every action produces data. Every outcome sharpens the next decision. Which pitches convert. Which journalists respond to what. Which timing works. This isn’t a static tool — it earns its intelligence through use.

4

Honest measurement or nothing

PR has survived on impressions and advertising value equivalency for too long. Herald tracks message pull-through, attributes web traffic to specific coverage, and measures LLM visibility alongside traditional media. If it can’t be measured, we’ll say so.

Every morning

Wake up to clarity.

Herald delivers a daily briefing before your first coffee. Not a wall of data. A concise picture of what happened, what matters, and what's next.
