PR Assistant is a powerful writing tool integrated into Media Relations. Powered by OpenAI's ChatGPT API, it harnesses cutting-edge generative AI to enhance your writing process as you craft press releases and email pitches. Additionally, PR Assistant can suggest suitable journalists from Meltwater’s extensive database for your pitching needs.
Generative AI is an innovative form of artificial intelligence that generates fresh content, such as poems or press releases, by studying examples and emulating their style or content. Thanks to its ability to grasp context, idioms, and humor, it produces text resembling human writing. This allows it to generate responses that are remarkably coherent and captivating.
