How to Write a Press Release With ChatGPT

A press release with ChatGPT takes about 90 minutes when you follow aidowith.me's Press Release route. The 10 steps cover everything from headline to boilerplate. You start by defining the news angle: what happened, why it matters, and who cares. Then ChatGPT generates a headline and subheadline with 3 variations each. The body follows AP style with a strong lead paragraph, 2 supporting quotes, and context paragraphs. The route includes prompts that prevent ChatGPT from producing fluffy, generic copy. It pushes for specific numbers, named sources, and concrete outcomes. Users who follow this approach report that 4 out of 5 journalists use their releases with minimal editing. You finish with a formatted document ready for distribution. The route also covers boilerplate formatting and media contact block so the final document is distribution-ready without additional editing.

How It Works

1

Define your news angle

Answer 3 questions: what happened, why it matters, who cares. This prevents ChatGPT from writing a generic announcement.

2

Generate headline, lead, and body

ChatGPT drafts 3 headline options, a strong lead paragraph, supporting quotes, and context sections. All in AP style format.

3

Edit for specificity and distribute

Replace generic phrases with numbers and names. Format the boilerplate, add media contact info, and export the final release.

Questions

The key is structured prompting. Give ChatGPT your news angle, target audience, and specific facts before asking it to write. This route provides prompts that force specificity: numbers, named sources, and concrete outcomes instead of generic hype.

Yes. Every step enforces AP style formatting: inverted pyramid structure, proper date formatting, attribution rules, and boilerplate placement. The AI checks your draft against these rules before you finalize.

The route covers product launches, funding rounds, partnerships, executive hires, and event announcements. You select your announcement type at the start and the prompts adapt to match the expected format for that type.
