Write a Media Pitch Email With AI

A media pitch email with AI helps you craft an email that journalists want to open and respond to. You start by defining your story angle, target publication type, and the news hook (data point, trend, launch, or event). AI generates a subject line under 50 characters, a 3-sentence opening hook, the body with supporting details, and a clear ask. On aidowith.me, the Media Brief route covers 10 steps in about 1 hour 30 minutes. You'll finish with a pitch email, 2 subject line variants, and a follow-up email template for day 3. Journalists receive 50 to 100 pitches per day and open roughly 10%. A strong subject line and first sentence determine whether yours makes the cut. This route focuses on those first 15 words more than anything else. The route also generates a pitch tracking sheet so you can log who you pitched, when, and what response you got. Tracking opens and replies helps you identify which story angles and subject lines perform best.

The Problem and the Fix

Without a skill

  • You sent 30 pitch emails last month and got 1 response because every email started with 'I'm reaching out because...'
  • A journalist tweeted about getting 87 pitches in a day, and you realized yours probably looked like the other 86
  • Your follow-up email was a copy-paste of the original pitch, and the journalist marked it as spam

With aidowith.me

  • Get a pitch email with a sub-50-character subject line and a 3-sentence hook that leads with news value
  • Receive 2 subject line variants for testing and a separate follow-up email for day 3
  • Finish the full pitch package in about 90 minutes instead of agonizing over wording for days

How It Works

1

Define your story angle

Enter your news hook (launch, data, trend), target publication type (tech, business, trade), and the journalist persona you're pitching. AI shapes the email around editorial preferences.

2

Draft the pitch email

AI generates the subject line, opening hook, body copy, and a clear ask. You refine the tone and add company-specific details the AI can't know.

3

Create variants and follow-up

AI produces 2 alternative subject lines and a follow-up email template for day 3. You review the full package and send.

Questions

AI structures the email around proven pitch formats: short subject lines, news-first hooks, and clear asks. Most people bury the news in paragraph 3. The route forces the hook into the first sentence and keeps the email under 150 words, which matches what journalists prefer to read. The route on aidowith.me walks you through each step with specific examples so you can apply this immediately to your real work.

You can use the same structure, but the route recommends personalizing the hook for each journalist. In step one, you define the journalist persona. Running the step twice with different personas gives you two tailored versions in 10 extra minutes. The route on aidowith.me walks you through each step with specific examples so you can apply this immediately to your real work.

The route generates a follow-up template designed for day 3 after the initial pitch. If the journalist hasn't responded by then, the follow-up adds a new angle or data point rather than repeating the original pitch. One follow-up is usually enough. More than two can hurt your reputation. The route on aidowith.me walks you through each step with specific examples so you can apply this immediately to your real work.
