Recent Articles, Prompt Templates, and Shareable Media Lists

Last week I launched ismypitchshit.com and it took off on Reddit.

The response was phenomenal: 400+ PRs from all over the world had fun roasting their own pitches and there was fierce competition to get to the top of the leaderboard.

But most importantly, it proved one thing:

AI is exceptional at knowing which journalist you should pitch.

And that's exactly why I built Medialyst - to help you use AI to build a vetted media list in seconds, so you can focus on the interesting PR work not grunt work.

I'm open sourcing the exact prompts used in ismypitchshit.com with you, and watch the video below on how you can use this prompt to get a vetted media list in seconds.

Also, we made 3 exciting updates during the holidays to make media list building even faster for you.

  1. Recent Articles column

Automatically add the recent articles of every journalist to the table. This data is only pulled when you request it. (aka it's fresher than any other media database, guaranteed) New article published 10 minutes ago? No problem, we'll have it.

This can be a great building block for your AI agents to understand journalists' beats, which bring me to the next update.

  1. Prompt Library - build your own PR research agents fast

We added ready-to-use prompts you can drop into your workflows. Think of them as starting points for automating the tedious parts of PR research.

In the video above, I took the same prompt that powers ismypitchshit.com and run it against each journalist in my list. The result is a prioritized media list, based on what each journalists wrote about recently.

The prompt library is just the beginning - we'll keep adding prompts based on workflows that actually work. If you have any suggestions, reply and let me know.

  1. Share your media lists with anyone

One click to generate a shareable link. Send it to your client, your team, whoever - they can view the table without creating an account. (you can revoke access anytime.)

Bonus: Other things you might want to try:

  • Email validation: validate emails before you send to avoid bounces.
  • Instantly integration: push journalists directly into Instantly campaigns.
  • Domain Rating & Traffic: see these metrics about the publications before you pitch.

That's it.
