Press release builder
Write the release in the exact format we publish. As you type, it checks the basics and shows which sites in our network the release would be routed to. When it reads right, send it to us or download it.
The facts
Company first, then what happened, with a number if there is one.

Common questions
Is the release builder free?
Yes. It runs in your browser, nothing is stored, and you can download the result without sending it to us.
How does the routing preview work?
It applies the same public rules the publish job uses. A release scores points for a matching industry, a matching region and topic words in its text, and local sites only take local releases. The preview shows where it would land if published today.
What happens when I send it?
We read it, check the facts with you, make one editorial pass and reply with the final draft and how to pay. Nothing is charged until you approve a scope and a price, and nothing is published until you approve the draft.
Can a release be published on a future date?
Yes. Set the date and the release is held until that day, then the publish job releases it automatically.
