PR, IR, distribution, monitoring, and analytics — all in one place

Two platforms. One team. Built for wherever you are.

Most communications teams don't need a PR platform and an IR platform at the same time. They need the right one at the right time — and a partner who's already there when the work changes. ACCESS PR is the press release distribution and media database platform built for every team telling a brand's story — from growth-stage brands to global enterprise communications teams running coordinated campaigns across markets. ACCESS IR is the investor relations platform built for public companies — IR website, earnings webcasts, and disclosure tools, in one subscription. When customers need both, they live on the same login, with the same account team. That's the version of "one combined PR and IR platform" worth caring about.

ACCESS PR

For every brand with a story to tell — from growth-stage to global enterprise.

ACCESS PR is what a modern communications team needs in one place — whether you're a growth-stage brand publishing your first release this quarter or a global enterprise running coordinated campaigns across regions. A global press release distribution service, a built-in media database, real-time social and media monitoring, targeted pitching, and AI-powered analytics that tell you what actually worked. The point isn't to give you another tool. The point is to give you fewer tools to learn, fewer tabs to manage, and fewer vendors to chase.



Subscription pricing flexed around how your team actually works — monthly, quarterly, or annual, no annual lock-in, no hidden fees. And on the day something breaks at 4pm before a release goes out, you get a real person on the phone — not a ticket number.

Press Release Distribution

Reach the outlets, journalists, and audiences that matter — locally, nationally, or globally. Pay-as-you-go, bundles, or subscriptions depending on how often you publish. The press release distribution service trusted by public companies, agencies, and growth-stage brands alike.

Media Database & Monitoring

A built-in media database of verified journalist contacts, customizable pitching templates, and real-time media monitoring across print, digital, broadcast, and social. Find the right reporter. Pitch them well. Know what's being said about your brand the moment it's said — no separate subscription required.

Insights and Analytics

PR reporting that finally answers the question your team actually gets asked: did it work, and why? AI-powered editorial scoring, real engagement data, and a first-of-its-kind LLM Citation Score that measures how retrievable your release is by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity — the tools your audiences are already using.

ACCESS IR

For the day you ring the bell — and every quarter after.

Going public changes everything about how your communications work. The audience changes. The cadence changes. The compliance bar changes. ACCESS IR is the investor relations platform built for that change — investor relations website design, build, and hosting; quarterly earnings call webcasts with US-based operators; disclosure tools, ADA compliance, and dedicated event managers, all in one subscription.


And if you've been with us through ACCESS PR, here's what doesn't change: the team you've been talking to, the account manager who already knows your business, the login you've been using. Trusted team, U.S. based customer success and operators, dedicated phone numbers and event managers. The work changes. We don't.

Extensive QA, multiple design reviews, and full site testing before launch — handled by an account team that's done this hundreds of times. Public-company ready, ADA-compliant IR website design, hosting, and management.

  • How much does it cost to use a press release service?

    The cost of using a press release service varies based on the distribution package and services you choose. At ACCESS Newswire, our prices start at $415. View our PR distribution packages here.

  • What is a press release service?

    A press release distribution service, or a PR distribution service, sends press releases to a large audience including journalists and media outlets to get your story as much media coverage and audience viewers as possible.

  • What is the purpose of a press release?

    The purpose of a press release is to gain media coverage and visibility for company news or announcements.

  • What is the best distribution for a press release?

    The best distribution for a press release depends on a brand's public or private company status and needs, specific goals, and target audience. At ACCESS Newswire, we offer a variety of regional, national, and global distribution channels to help companies of all sizes and industries amplify their message to the press and public.

  • How do you deliver a press release?

    At ACCESS Newswire, we make the process of delivering a press release simple and seamless.  Our platform was created with the user experience in mind, and we have many built in tools to help create, format, target, and distribute your press release.  Our added tools also allow you to access our extensive media database, directly pitch the media, monitor the media for brand, industry, and competitor mentions, and evaluate campaign performance. Learn more about how to distribute a press release here.

  • Do you pay for a press release service?

    Yes, all press release services charge a fee for press release distribution. View ACCESS Newswire’s pricing options here. 

  • Can anyone write a press release?

    Yes, and today, there are multiple AI tools to help anyone write a press release.  At ACCESS Newswire we provide a built in AI tool called AImee to help create a press release from scratch, or edit an existing press release. Many press release distribution providers, including ACCESS Newswire also offer professional press release writing services. 

  • Can I submit a press release for free?

    If a newswire offers free press release services, the releases are not distributed on the wire as fees are always associated with press releases crossing the wire.  Beware of free press release services, as they typically will not lead to many media or audience views and will just be posted on low performing websites.  View ACCESS Newswire’s pricing options here.   

  • What are some press release best practices?

    First, your press release should always include newsworthy content, such as product launches, mergers & acquisitions, awards & accolades, Executive new hires or promotions, charitable contributions, and the like.  For some ideas view our 10 Press Release Topic Ideas blog. Some mistakes to avoid when writing a press release include no structure, not paying attention to length, overlooking SEO opportunities, skipping internal links and more. View our top mistakes when writing a press release here. 

  • How long should a press release take to write?

    A typical press release should only consist of approximately 300-500 words so it should not take hours to create. Whether written from scratch or with some AI or professional press release writing service support, a press release can be written within an hour.

  • What is the difference between a press release distribution service and a newswire?

    A press release distribution service handles the end-to-end process of writing, formatting, targeting, and distributing your press release across media outlets, journalists, and online platforms. A newswire is one of the channels a distribution service uses — the regulated wire that delivers releases to specific outlets in real time. ACCESS Newswire combines both: full distribution service and the wire itself.

  • How is ACCESS Newswire different from PR Newswire?

    ACCESS Newswire offers a combined PR and IR platform on subscription pricing — distribution, media database, monitoring, and analytics under one login, with US-based account managers on every account. PR Newswire is a larger, distribution-focused service typically priced per-release. The right fit depends on whether you want a partner who supports you across PR and IR as your company changes, or a per-release distribution channel only.

  • Can ACCESS Newswire support our company as we grow from private to public?

    Yes — and our customers tell us it's the reason they chose us. ACCESS PR supports communications teams through their growth stage with press release distribution, media database, monitoring, and analytics. ACCESS IR adds the IR website, earnings call webcasts, and disclosure tools you'll need when you go public. When that transition happens, your same ACCESS account team continues with you. Same relationship, same login, no vendor switch in the middle of an IPO.

  • What is an LLM Citation Score?

    An LLM Citation Score measures how retrievable your press release is by AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity — the tools your audiences increasingly use to discover and summarize news. ACCESS Newswire's Insights and Analytics is the first PR reporting tool to measure this directly, scoring every release on how likely it is to be cited in AI-generated answers about your company.
