Yes, I am able to formulate highly tailored emails, I don't need help on that. I need help on actually finding those reporters, and their emails. Right now, I can easily duplicate your service, by doing a Google News search and manually finding the contact info for each of them.

It takes much more effort and time if you do it on your own, but agree it's doable in theory. In practice, takes too much time vs. JRO. Our service helps people find relevant reporters, tailor their pitches and make sure they are truly relevant, and then it gives you the contact information for the reporters.

We want to make sure you are reaching out to highly relevant reporters with tailored pitches.

Nope, that's a lie. Even with a broad topic like paleo, there's only a handful of very influential reporters that write about that in the past 24 hours. No need to lie!

Not lying. Formulating a highly tailored email to the reporter's interests and getting up to date verifiable contact information for every reporter who wrote about "Paleo" will take you MUCH more time and effort if you do it on your own vs clicking a button and using a tool for it. We made this tool because I myself do this every day. It's doable, but it will take more time.

> That is why we are look at articles from just last 24 hours.

This makes no sense. How does this not yield basically a random pick and dismiss most relevant but less active journalists?

We are looking for the best most relevant articles from the last 24 hours, so most timely and most relevant on the given topic. Agree with you that beefing up a search would be nice, working on that now. This is a private beta limited to 10 people. Will make it better before we let more in.

I don't see how pitching somebody 24 hours after they covered a topic makes sense. They are not very likely to write about the same topic again at least for a while. And by the time they do won't my pitch be long forgotten?
