I love this idea, and this is coming from someone who works at a traditional PR agency. I've been trying to change it a bit from the inside out, to varying degrees of success. I'm so curious how this can work with your pricing model. I can't wait to watch you all succeed!

This is an area with a lot of pain points so I definitely see a market for this. That, combined with how I know the founders to be seriously smart and hard-working, has me excited to keep an eye on PRX!
I go to @rickyyean and @dtran320 for advice all the time on PR - they know the space inside and out. Super proud they're taking all this knowledge and startup know-how and turning it into a scalable business for an industry that's ripe for innovation.
Awesome idea, also a lot of PR agencies are kind of scammy and charge u insane money for everything and with no guarantee. Keep up the good work :-)

I like this concept and it is pitched well. I think it's subject dependent, it could be very difficult to attract many of the 40+ reporters for a more niche product, so the difference in coverage for businesses all paying the same fixed rate could be massive. However, you combat this intelligently by offering a sponsored post when there isn't organic coverage, helps with confidence.
This is cool - we need this for two of our products! Can't wait to try it out... we were knee deep in sourcing full on PR firms and my wallet started burning.
