The founders say their goal is to make senior-level PR judgment accessible to companies that cannot afford experienced communications staff, which could lower the barrier to entry for startups seeking media coverage. Jamshidi's comments suggest the company sees its media-list and pitching tools as just an early step toward a broader platform combining signals, context, and workflow management across the entire comms process.
