Pressora vs. PR Newswire
PR Newswire costs $350–$5,000+. Pressora costs $49 and writes the release for you.
Both services distribute a press release. The difference is what happens before the wire: there, you arrive with the writing done or pay extra for it. Here, the writing is the product.
The two, side by side
What you get for the price.
PR Newswire
$350–$5,000+The reference premium wire, priced for agencies and public companies: per-release fees that swing with length, extras and reach, on top of a membership to even submit.
- Talk to sales before you know what your announcement costs to send
- Arrive with the release written to their format, or pay more for theirs
- Hold a membership to distribute a few releases a year

Pressora
$49–$399A written release and distribution, priced once per announcement. No subscription, no membership.
- Six plain questions, and the release is written from your answers — free, before anything is paid
- Core $49, Wide $149, Premium $399 — one payment, no plan to cancel
- The tier's outlet list is shown before you pay, and the report lists every outlet that picked the release up
If an outlet's editors reject your release, we rewrite it once. If it's rejected again, you get all your money back.
The part people underestimate
The writing is where the evening goes.
A distribution price is not the whole price. Someone still has to write the release, and that is the part most founders do themselves, badly, at midnight. Pressora takes those six answers and hands back a finished, editable draft before any money moves.
