AI Copywriter: Produce Press Releases That Get Media Pickup

An AI copywriter writes fast - but press releases need a news angle, structure, and facts that get journalists to click. Here's the system.

10 steps ~1h For content creators Free

An AI copywriter handles the drafting work - headlines, ledes, body copy, boilerplate. What it doesn't handle is news judgment. That's yours. At aidowith.me, the press release route combines both: you bring the news angle; the AI copywriter produces the copy. The route runs in 10 steps and about 1 hour. Step 1 finds the news angle with a 5-question prompt. Step 3 generates the headline and first paragraph. Step 5 writes the body with quotes. Step 8 applies AP style formatting. Step 10 is a distribution-ready document. You use ChatGPT or Claude - both work with the route's prompts. The output is a 400-600 word press release with a real hook that you can send to 20+ journalists without a PR agency. aidowith.me structures the AI copywriter workflow so output meets professional standards from step 1.

The Problem and the Fix

Without a route

  • Communications teams pay $150-500 per press release to agencies when an AI copywriter with the right prompts covers 80% of the work
  • AI-generated press releases that skip the news angle test get 0 journalist responses - the format is correct but there's no story
  • Most professionals use an AI copywriter as a drafting tool but spend 2+ hours fixing tone, facts, and AP style formatting

With aidowith.me

  • Use an AI copywriter with a structured 10-step route - not a blank prompt - to get journalist-ready output
  • Cut press release production time from 3 hours to 1 hour with real prompts for each section
  • Skip the agency for routine announcements and keep the quality professional

How It Works

1

Find the news angle with the AI copywriter

Step 1 runs 5 diagnostic questions through ChatGPT or Claude to surface the real news story. The AI helps you spot the hook - you decide if it's strong enough.

2

Write headline, lede, and body

Steps 3-6 use the AI copywriter with section-specific prompts. Headline in step 3, lede in step 4, quotes in step 5, body in step 6. Each section has a review check before moving on.

3

Format and finalize

Steps 7-10 apply AP style, add the boilerplate, and produce the final document. Step 10 is a copy-paste-ready press release for your media list.

Questions

Yes - when given the right inputs. An AI copywriter needs your news angle, 3-5 facts, at least 1 attributed quote, and your boilerplate. With those inputs and a structured prompt sequence, ChatGPT or Claude produces journalist-ready copy. The aidowith.me press release route provides the input structure and the prompts - most participants finish in 1 hour without agency involvement.

For routine announcements: yes. For crisis communications or sensitive topics: not yet. An AI copywriter handles standard product launches, funding announcements, partnership news, and event coverage well. It struggles with nuanced messaging, regulatory language, and situations that require media relationship context. The aidowith.me route is designed for standard business announcements - 10 steps, 1 hour, journalist-ready output.

The key is specificity. Feed the AI copywriter real data, real quotes, and a specific news angle - not vague descriptions. The aidowith.me route starts with a news angle diagnostic in step 1. This forces specific inputs before the AI writes anything. Generic inputs produce generic press releases; specific inputs produce coverage-worthy announcements.
