Press release
Checklist
Run the tool to get a pass, partial or fail on each of 8 items, a score, and a rewritten headline and first paragraph.
How it works
- 1
Paste the press release (up to 12,000 characters).
- 2
A language model checks it against a fixed list: direct first paragraph, full entity names, dated and numbered facts, attributed quotes, plain language, a boilerplate that says what the company does, and links to sources.
- 3
You get a pass, partial or fail per item with a note, a score, and a rewritten headline.
Questions
Do AI engines read press releases?
They read the pages that republish them: newswires, trade press and your newsroom. A release written in plain facts travels through those sources intact.
What fails most often?
Opening with a mission statement instead of the news, quotes with no title or company, and claims with no number or date.
