Find press opportunities and draft pitches with an agent
A poster walks through Newsjack, free agent skills by @elvissun that watch the news, suggest story angles, find fitting journalists and critique pitches before you send them.
Done with Other
What they did
The poster installs Newsjack, a free set of agent skills built by @elvissun, through a dedicated bot. The agent learns the company's audience and writing voice, watches chosen topics and news feeds, and flags fresh stories. It then suggests story angles, picks one fitting reporter per outlet, roasts the draft pitch, and answers press request sites only when there is a real fit.
Worth knowing
The poster notes you still review and send every pitch yourself, and the angle tool is designed not to invent facts.
