Hire AI Developer for PR Agencies
Senior, direct, no layers

A PR agency lives on relationships and timing, and both break when the back office is improvised: press lists that go stale between campaigns, pitches sent without checking who already covered the story, coverage clips collected by hand the morning a client report is due, and crisis calls handled from memory because no protocol was ever written down. The pitching itself is the craft; the chasing and collating around it is where hours disappear.

For PR Agencies, applied AI earns its keep where press lists, journalist notes, pitches, coverage clips and sentiment notes arrive faster than staff can process them: extraction and sorting first, judgement-heavy decisions left alone.

An AI developer designs and integrates applied AI features into the tools PR Agencies already use: classification and extraction where documents arrive unstructured, ranking and recommendation where choices pile up, and drafting aids where staff write the same thing repeatedly. The work is scoped to one decision at a time, with a human check on anything that affects a client. Book a free discovery call and we will test the fit on one real workflow before any wider scope is agreed.

Agencies typically work from a media database such as Muck Rack or Cision for journalist research, a coverage tracker for clips and sentiment, shared documents for releases and briefing notes, and spreadsheets or a CRM for client reporting. The gap is usually that pitches, coverage and reporting live apart, so nobody can answer quickly what a campaign actually earned.

AI features plug into the media databases, coverage trackers and client reporting tools at the point documents and decisions flow through them, so staff keep working in familiar tools while extraction, ranking and drafting happen inside the flow.

Paid placements must be disclosed as paid, embargoes must be honoured, claims made to journalists must be defensible, and client-confidential material must never leak into a pitch or a shared document. Anything built here keeps embargoed and confidential material behind the agency's own permissions, and nothing auto-sends a pitch without a human approving it. That constraint shapes the build from day one: permissions follow the team's existing structure, and nothing ships without the team's approval.

The realistic outcome is account teams that spend their week pitching and advising instead of collating: coverage visible the day it lands, client reports that take an hour rather than a day, and a press list the next campaign can trust.

The change is measured in reclaimed staff hours and fewer rework loops: jobs that arrive structured, drafts that start from the record instead of a blank page, and a team that trusts the tool because its limits are stated plainly.
