Newshook is a media request aggregator that helps experts, founders, consultants and PR teams get quoted in the press without manually checking a dozen platforms every day.
Journalists post source requests across many places: HARO, Featured, Source of Sources, SourceBottle, MentionMatch, Qwoted, X/Twitter, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Reddit, Substack newsletters and reader callouts on publication websites. Newshook monitors 12+ of these sources continuously and pulls every request into a single feed. Requests that appear on several platforms are deduplicated, and hashtag abuse and PR-agency noise are filtered out.
Each user describes their expertise once: industries, niches and the topics they can speak to. Newshook's AI then scores every incoming request against that profile and surfaces the relevant ones as a short list of real opportunities. The full feed of all requests from every platform remains available alongside, so nothing is hidden and users can browse or search it at any time. Alerts for matched requests are delivered by email, Slack, Discord or Microsoft Teams.
Before sending a pitch, users can run it through Newshook's AI pitch scoring, which rates relevance to the request, tone and format, and how well the pitch demonstrates expertise. Newshook does not write pitches; it helps users improve the ones they write.
Newshook also tracks responses and outlets reached, provides analytics on matches over time and by platform, exports response history to CSV, and includes a journalist database for looking up reporters and their outlets.
The Expert plan is designed for individual experts and founders. The Agency plan adds team seats so PR agencies can run a separate AI-matched feed for each client or team member from one account. A free trial is available with no credit card required.
Typical users include subject-matter experts building authority, startup founders seeking press coverage, consultants and coaches, and PR agencies managing media opportunities for several clients.
