Featured Workflows
Beats change hands constantly — reporters switch outlets, freelancers pick up new coverage areas, and last quarter's media list quietly goes stale. This workflow watches recent coverage for your topics and delivers the journalists newly writing about them, with outlet and headlines.
Built from recent coverage · Context attached to every name · Delivered to Slack or email
New reporters on your beat, with outlet and recent headlines attached. Tap a setup and Featured's chat will configure it with you.

Open in FeaturedWhat it matches
Journalists actively publishing on the beats you describe — surfaced from recent coverage, with outlet, beat, and latest headlines attached to every name.
When it looks
Weekly fits most beat-watching; monthly for slower beats; daily in the run-up to an announcement.
Where results go
Email or Slack — as a running list that grows, or a fresh batch per delivery.
Tell Featured what to monitor, when to look, and where to send results.
The beat, the region, or the competitor set you care about — in plain language. That description is the standing search.
On every run, the workflow surfaces journalists newly writing on your topics — with outlet, beat, and recent headlines so each name arrives with context.
New names append to a running list or arrive as fresh batches. When it's time to pitch, Featured's chat drafts outreach referencing each reporter's work.
A media list is an inventory of relationships — and inventories need restocking.
Live
Built from what reporters published lately, the list catches beat changes and newcomers a static database misses by quarters.
Context
Every journalist comes with outlet, beat, and latest headlines — the raw material of a first line that proves you read their work.
Compounding
Most media lists decay. This one accrues — every run adds the newest relevant writers, so announcement day starts from strength.
The Pitch Journalists feature builds targeted media lists in one conversation — the workflow keeps them fresh afterward.

It keeps a standing search running for journalists actively covering your beats, and delivers the new names — with outlet, beat, and recent headlines — to Slack or email on your cadence. The result is a media list that updates itself instead of decaying between campaigns.
Databases store contacts; this watches coverage. Because it's built from what journalists actually published recently, it catches beat changes, outlet moves, and emerging writers as they happen — the churn that makes static lists miss. And every name arrives with the context to write a first line that lands.
Yes — choose a running list that grows with each run, or independent batches per delivery. Agencies typically run one growing list per client; announcement-driven teams run a daily batch in the weeks before news.
Ask it to draft a personalized intro line for each new journalist it finds, or open any name in Featured chat for a full pitch referencing their recent work. You send from your own inbox — the judgment stays yours.
Weekly for active beats, monthly for slower ones, daily when you're four weeks from an announcement. Cadence is one sentence to change, so most teams tighten it around news and relax it after.
No — workflows are available on every plan, including Free. Runs pause when the daily usage cap is hit; a Free workspace's first run may pause on the 10¢ cap. Build your first list free in chat, then automate the upkeep.
Comms teams keeping beat lists warm between announcements, agencies maintaining per-client lists without the quarterly research scramble, and founders watching an emerging beat so they know its writers before it's crowded.
Start the workflow once and let your media list stay current from here on.
Every plan includes journalist discovery.
