# JustReachOut

> JustReachOut is a do-it-yourself PR software product built for small businesses, founders, and solo PR consultants who pitch the press themselves instead of hiring an agency. It combines a searchable database of roughly 700,000 journalists with human-verified email addresses, an aggregated feed of live journalist requests for sources, an AI pitch writer that drafts personalized emails from a reporter's recent articles, and sending with follow-ups, open tracking, and a deliberately low monthly send limit designed to prevent mass blasting.

## Overview

Most media databases are sold to agencies and communications departments, priced accordingly, and built on the assumption that a trained person will sit in front of them all day. JustReachOut was built for the opposite buyer. Dmitry Dragilev started it in 2014 after using DIY press outreach to grow a startup that Google later acquired, and the stated goal was to help the small guy, the solopreneur, the author, the coffee shop, do their own PR without a retainer. That framing still shapes the product: the interface pushes you toward a small number of well-targeted pitches rather than a list export, and the company states plainly that it does not permit mass pitch emails.

The product covers four outreach motions from one account. Journalist Outreach searches the contact database by beat, publication, and keyword, and surfaces which reporters actually respond. Pitch Requests aggregates live queries from journalists looking for expert sources across six feeds, which became more valuable to small businesses after Cision retired the free HARO service. Podcast Outreach finds shows to be booked on. Broken Link Building and Guest Post Outreach handle the SEO-adjacent side, which is why a meaningful share of JustReachOut's customers arrive looking for authority backlinks rather than press clippings.

Ownership has changed twice. Dragilev sold a majority stake to Adam White, founder of the backlink tool SEOJet, in a high six-figure deal in late 2020, keeping a minority position and remaining the public face of the brand. Jon Mest became CEO in 2024, and in February 2025 the same team launched ChatRank, a separate product that tracks how brands appear inside AI assistants, positioning JustReachOut as the tool you use to earn the mentions that move that visibility. One practical note for buyers: the live product is at justreachout.io. The justreachout.com domain is a parked page and does not serve the application.

The honest summary of the trade-off is that JustReachOut is priced like PR software but metered like an email tool. Entry is $147 per month billed monthly for 100 sends, which is well inside small-business reach compared with Muck Rack or Cision, but it is not cheap for a founder who sends fifteen pitches a quarter, and the send cap is the ceiling that most subscribers hit before they hit a data limit.

## How it works

1. You start from one of the five tools rather than from a blank contact list. In Journalist Outreach you search by topic, keyword, publication, or beat and get back reporters who have written about that subject recently, with their verified email addresses, links to their recent work, and an indication of how responsive they have been to pitches.

2. Pitch Requests works the other way around. Instead of finding a journalist and hoping the timing is right, you subscribe to keywords and the platform pulls live queries from journalists actively looking for sources, drawn from six different feeds and refreshed throughout the day. Responding to a request has a far higher hit rate than a cold pitch, and for most small-business subscribers this is the feature that produces the first placement.

3. The AI pitch engine drafts the email. It reads the journalist's recent articles, produces a summary so you do not have to read them yourself, and generates a personalized opening line and pitch body tied to what they actually cover. You edit the draft, set your signature and from-address, and send from within the platform.

4. Sending is capped and tracked. Each plan carries a monthly send allowance, from 100 on Starter to 1,000 on Ultimate, plus automated follow-ups if the reporter does not reply, open tracking so you can see whether a pitch was read, and reply handling in the same thread. The cap is the product's editorial position rather than an infrastructure limit: the company refuses to sell raw database access or to allow blast sending.

5. Above the software there is a services layer. Higher tiers and the Jumpstart and White Glove programs add narrative building sessions with a PR strategist, pre-built campaigns, a twelve-month content calendar, and, at the top, a team that executes campaigns for you with a dedicated Slack channel.

## Best for

Founders, small-business owners, authors, and solo PR consultants who intend to pitch journalists themselves, want live source requests and verified reporter emails in one place, and value written guidance and coaching as much as the database itself.

## Not the right fit for

- Agencies or in-house teams that need to export contact lists and work them in their own CRM; JustReachOut explicitly refuses to sell raw database access.
- Anyone running high-volume link-building outreach; 100 to 1,000 sends per month is a fraction of what a dedicated outreach tool allows, and blasting is against the terms.
- Communications teams that need media monitoring, coverage clipping, share-of-voice reporting, or crisis dashboards; JustReachOut sends pitches but does not track what gets published about you.
- Buyers who need a free tier to evaluate the data before paying; the only entry is a 7-day trial that requires a credit card.
- Teams needing API access, CRM sync, or workflow automation, since the product is close to a closed system with no public API.
- Companies with a large existing press list who need database breadth across international outlets rather than a curated, verified US-centric set.

## Features

### Journalist search and contact data

A curated database of roughly 700,000 journalists with human-verified addresses, searchable by what reporters actually write about.

- **Beat and keyword search**: Search reporters by the topics they have covered recently rather than by a static beat label, which is how you avoid pitching a health reporter about your fintech launch.
- **Human-verified email addresses**: Addresses are manually checked rather than machine-guessed, the single most common complaint about cheaper media lists and the reason bounce rates stay low.
- **Responsiveness signals**: Each journalist record indicates how likely they are to reply, so you can weight a shortlist toward reporters who actually engage with pitches instead of the biggest bylines.
- **Multiple addresses per contact**: Where a journalist has a personal address, a desk address, and a freelance one, all are shown, which matters for reporters who move outlets often.
- **Recent article links and summaries**: Every contact is attached to their latest published work, with AI summaries so you can reference a specific piece without reading five articles first.

### Pitch Requests: live journalist queries

Aggregated source requests from reporters actively looking for experts, which is the highest-conversion motion in the product.

- **Six aggregated request sources**: Live queries are pulled from six different feeds rather than one, which mattered more after Cision shut down the free HARO service and left a gap for small businesses.
- **Keyword subscriptions**: Save the topics you can credibly comment on and get matching requests surfaced as they appear, so you are reacting to deadlines instead of hunting for them.
- **All-day refresh**: Opportunities update throughout the day rather than in a single morning digest, which matters because journalist queries are often same-day deadlines.
- **Podcast interview requests**: Requests can be filtered specifically to shows looking for guests, a separate search path from written press.
- **AI weekly briefing**: On Advanced and above, a weekly email summarizes the opportunities most relevant to your saved keywords so the feed does not go unread.

### AI pitch engine and sending

Draft, personalize, send, and follow up without leaving the tool, under a deliberate monthly send cap.

- **AI-drafted personalized pitches**: Generate a pitch built around a specific journalist's recent coverage in seconds, including the opening line that references their work.
- **Article summarization**: Instant summaries of a reporter's recent pieces let you break the ice credibly without spending twenty minutes reading before every pitch.
- **Custom from-address and signature**: Pitches go out under your own email address and signature rather than a platform domain, so replies land where you expect them.
- **Automated follow-ups**: Schedule a follow-up sequence that stops automatically when the journalist replies, which is where most of the incremental placements come from.
- **Open and reply tracking**: See whether a pitch was opened and which threads got answers, feeding a simple view of what subject lines and angles are working.
- **Monthly send caps by design**: 100 sends on Starter, 300 on Advanced, and 1,000 on Ultimate, with the company stating outright that it does not allow mass pitch emails.

### Link and podcast outreach

SEO-adjacent outreach paths that share the same contact data and sending engine.

- **Broken link building tool**: Find dead links on established sites in your niche and pitch your own page as the replacement, an outreach motion with a clear, unarguable reason to contact the site owner.
- **Guest post outreach**: Search publications that accept contributed articles and pitch topics, with the same personalization and follow-up workflow as press pitching.
- **Podcast outreach**: Search shows by topic and audience and pitch yourself as a guest, which for many founders is the fastest route to both a backlink and an audience.
- **Backlink-oriented reporting**: Coverage is framed around the authority links it produces as well as the mention itself, reflecting that many customers buy this as an SEO tool.

### Guidance, coaching, and multi-brand work

The layer that separates JustReachOut from a plain contact database: PR strategy delivered as content and, at higher tiers, as people.

- **Narrative building sessions**: One-hour calls with a strategist on Ultimate and above to define the story angles worth pitching before any email is written.
- **Jumpstart done-with-you program**: The team sets up five campaigns, writes the messaging, sends the first month of pitches for you, and hands over a twelve-month content calendar.
- **White Glove execution**: At the top tier the team runs five campaigns a month with monthly narrative sessions and a dedicated Slack channel, which is an agency retainer sold as a software plan.
- **Multi-brand workspaces**: One brand on Starter, five on Advanced, ten on Ultimate, which is the feature that makes the product usable for a solo consultant with a client roster.
- **PR outreach playbooks**: An extensive public library on writing a media pitch, starting conversations with journalists, and building relationships, used as onboarding material rather than pure marketing.

## Use cases

- **Solo founder launching a consumer product with no PR budget**: The launch is in six weeks, an agency quotes $6,000 a month on a three-month minimum, and nobody on the team has a media contact. Outcome: Keyword subscriptions on Pitch Requests surface three journalists working on relevant round-ups within the first fortnight; two AI-drafted responses convert into mentions, which becomes the press section of the homepage before launch day.
- **Solo PR consultant with five small clients**: Managing five separate pitch lists in spreadsheets, with no reliable way to know which reporter emails still work and no per-client reporting. Outcome: The Advanced plan's five brand workspaces separate each client's campaigns and sends, verified addresses cut bounces, and open and reply data becomes the monthly client report that previously had to be written from memory.
- **SaaS marketer chasing authority backlinks**: Content ranks on page two and the gap is referring domains, but buying links is off the table and cold outreach from a generic tool gets ignored. Outcome: Broken link building finds dead resources on established niche blogs, the AI pitch engine references the specific page, and a run of replacement links plus two podcast bookings lifts the target pages without a single paid placement.
- **Author with a book publishing in three months**: The publisher's publicity support amounts to a press release and a list, and the author needs podcast interviews and trade coverage to seed early reviews. Outcome: Podcast outreach produces a shortlist of shows in the right subject area, follow-ups run automatically while the author is writing, and the calendar fills with interviews scheduled for publication week.

## Pricing

Flat monthly subscription tiered by monthly email sends, team members, and number of brands, with a roughly 33 percent discount for annual billing. Every tier includes the full toolset; what changes is volume, seats, brand count, and how much human PR help is attached. No contracts, cancel anytime.

- **Starter Outreach**: $147 per month billed monthly, or $98 per month billed annually. 100 email sends per month; 1 team member, outreach for 1 brand; AI PR pitch engine, journalist search, human-verified email addresses; Access to all outreach tools including podcast, broken link, and guest post. The send cap, not the data, is what most Starter subscribers run into first.
- **Advanced Outreach**: $247 per month billed monthly, or $165 per month billed annually. 300 email sends per month; 2 team members, outreach for 5 brands; AI weekly email briefing on relevant opportunities; Everything in Starter. The practical tier for a consultant with a small client roster, because of the five brand workspaces.
- **Ultimate Outreach**: $497 per month billed monthly, or $331 per month billed annually. 1,000 email sends per month; 5 team members, outreach for 10 brands; Narrative building session plus keep-it-fresh strategy calls; Everything in Advanced.
- **Jumpstart Program**: $417 per month, annual billing only. Everything in Advanced, plus two one-hour narrative building sessions; Five campaigns set up and messaging written for you; First month of pitches sent on your behalf; Keyword subscriptions configured and a 12-month content calendar delivered. A done-with-you onboarding wrapper rather than a higher software tier.
- **White Glove**: $1,997 per month, monthly billing only. Everything in Ultimate, plus five campaigns executed monthly by the JustReachOut team; Monthly narrative building sessions; Dedicated Slack support channel. Effectively a small PR retainer; compare it against a freelance publicist rather than against software.

Billing notes:

- Annual billing is roughly a third cheaper on every self-serve tier, and the gap between $147 and $98 on Starter is large enough that most committed buyers take the annual term.
- The 7-day trial requires a card up front and converts automatically unless cancelled; the company says this is to prevent repeat trials.
- The meter is email sends, not contacts, searches, or seats, which is unusual for a media database and is the single figure to model before buying.
- Custom pricing is available for additional brands, users, or send volume beyond the published tiers.
- Plan changes are self-serve with proration on upgrades, and there are no contracts or cancellation terms on the self-serve plans.
- Jumpstart is annual-only and White Glove is monthly-only, so the two service tiers cannot be compared on the same billing basis.

Value assessment: Judged against the media database category, JustReachOut is inexpensive: Muck Rack and Cision quote annual contracts in the thousands and rarely publish a number, while $98 to $147 a month is a purchase a solo founder can actually authorize. Judged against what a small business sends, the value is less obvious, because 100 pitches a month for $147 is expensive per email and the tool refuses to let you scale the volume, by design. The right way to price it is per placement: if the Pitch Requests feed and the narrative guidance produce two pieces of coverage a quarter that you would otherwise have paid an agency for, the Starter plan pays for itself many times over. If you already know exactly who to pitch and simply need addresses, this is a costly way to buy them.

## Strengths

- One of the very few media outreach products with published prices, a self-serve signup, and no annual contract, which is the entire reason a small business can buy it at all.
- Human-verified email addresses instead of pattern-guessed ones, which shows up directly in bounce rates.
- The Pitch Requests feed aggregates six sources of live journalist queries, which is the highest-conversion way for an unknown company to get quoted and became scarcer after HARO's free service was retired.
- The AI pitch engine removes the real bottleneck in DIY PR, which is not finding the journalist but writing something personalized enough to be opened.
- Multi-brand workspaces on mid tiers make it genuinely workable for a solo consultant with a client roster, not just for a single company.
- Substantial free educational library on pitching and journalist relationships, which functions as the onboarding a first-time pitcher actually needs.
- Four outreach motions (press, podcasts, broken links, guest posts) share one contact set and one sending engine, so the SEO and PR use cases do not require two subscriptions.

## Limitations

- The send cap is the binding constraint: 100 emails a month on the $147 tier, and the company deliberately blocks mass sending, so no plan solves a high-volume outreach need.
- No list export and no raw database access; the FAQ answers this directly with a no, which rules out working the data in your own CRM or sequencing tool.
- No public API and effectively no third-party integrations, so pitch activity does not sync to a CRM, a shared inbox, or a reporting stack.
- Contact data freshness is the most repeated complaint in public reviews, particularly for reporters who have changed outlets, despite the manual verification step.
- No media monitoring or coverage tracking; the product ends when the pitch is sent, so measuring what actually got published requires a separate tool such as Brand24 or Mention.
- No free plan and a card-gated 7-day trial, which is a short window to judge whether the journalist coverage in your specific niche is deep enough.
- Coverage is strongest for US English-language outlets; international and non-English media are thinner than the 700,000 headline figure suggests for a given niche.
- Reviews describe the interface as dated in places and support as slow outside business hours, which are Monday to Friday, 10am to 5pm US Eastern.
- The corporate website is confusing: justreachout.com is a parked domain and only justreachout.io serves the product, which undermines confidence at first contact.

## Comparisons

- **JustReachOut vs Pressfarm**: The closest match on buyer profile, since both target founders doing their own PR at a price a startup can pay. Pressfarm bundles content production, press releases, media kits, and email templates alongside its journalist database, which suits a company that needs the assets written. JustReachOut assumes you can write and instead invests in live pitch requests, verified addresses, and AI personalization at send time. Choose Pressfarm if the gap is content; choose JustReachOut if the gap is knowing who to send it to and when.
- **JustReachOut vs Brand24**: Complementary rather than competing. Brand24 tells you what is already being said about your brand across news, social, blogs, and podcasts, with sentiment and reach scoring. JustReachOut creates the mentions in the first place and then goes quiet. A small business running press outreach seriously needs both halves, and since Brand24 starts well under $100 a month, pairing the two is a realistic small-business stack rather than an enterprise one.
- **JustReachOut vs Prowly**: Prowly, owned by Semrush, is the better-rounded PR platform: a large media database, press release hosting on a branded newsroom, distribution, and coverage reporting in one place, priced from a few hundred dollars a month. JustReachOut is narrower and more opinionated, betting on live source requests and one-to-one personalized pitching rather than announcements. Teams that publish regular company news should look at Prowly; founders whose PR is really about getting quoted should look at JustReachOut.
- **JustReachOut vs Muck Rack**: Muck Rack is the professional standard, with a far deeper and better-maintained journalist database, real monitoring and reporting, and the credibility that comes from journalists maintaining their own profiles. It is also sold on annual contracts with quote-only pricing that typically runs into five figures, which puts it out of reach for the buyer JustReachOut serves. If your budget clears Muck Rack's floor, the data quality gap is real; if it does not, JustReachOut is the version of that job a small business can actually buy.
- **JustReachOut vs Semrush**: Different categories that overlap at the backlink. Semrush finds the link gaps, tracks referring domains, and has an outreach module plus ownership of Prowly for the PR side. JustReachOut is the execution layer for earning those links through pitching people rather than through content and technical SEO. Teams already paying for Semrush should check what its own outreach tooling covers before adding a second subscription; teams whose link strategy is entirely relationship-based get more from JustReachOut.
- **JustReachOut vs Mailshake**: Mailshake sends far more email for far less money, with sequences, deliverability tooling, and no cap on how many people you contact. What it does not have is journalists: no media database, no live source requests, and no personalization built from a reporter's recent articles. If you already have a vetted press list, Mailshake is the cheaper sending engine. If the list is the hard part, and for most small businesses it is, Mailshake does not solve the problem.

## Implementation

- Setup time: Under an hour to a first pitch. Account creation, from-address and signature setup, and a first keyword subscription are all self-serve, and the Pitch Requests feed has usable opportunities on day one without any data import.
- Learning curve: The software is simple; the discipline is not. The skill that determines results is writing a pitch a busy reporter will answer and choosing angles that are genuinely newsworthy, which is why the product ships so much written guidance and sells strategy calls at higher tiers. Expect a few weeks of sending before the reply rate becomes informative.
- Onboarding: Self-serve with a walkthrough video, an extensive FAQ, and a large public playbook library on pitching. Paid onboarding exists as the Jumpstart program, where the team sets up campaigns, writes the messaging, and sends the first month of pitches for you.
- Migration: There is little to import and, more importantly, little to take out. The platform does not allow database export, so a media list built inside JustReachOut does not leave with you; keep your own record of the journalists you have built relationships with and their replies. Sent-pitch history and open data live in the product, so export or screenshot any reporting you need before cancelling.

## Platform, API & security

- Platforms: Web application (browser only), Email sending from your own from-address
- API: No public API and no documented webhook or Zapier support as of August 2026. Pitch activity, contacts, and reply data stay inside the platform, which is a real constraint for anyone who expects outreach to sync with a CRM.
- Compliance: GDPR, CAN-SPAM
- Data residency: United States. No published regional data residency options.
- SSO: Not offered on published plans.
- Security notes: Team access is controlled by seat count rather than granular roles, and brand workspaces separate client campaigns rather than enforcing permission boundaries. The platform's refusal to permit bulk sending or list export is as much a deliverability and reputation control as a product decision, since pitches go out under the customer's own address.

## Support

- Channels: Email support Monday to Friday, 10am to 5pm US Eastern, In-app contact form, Book a demo call, Dedicated Slack channel on the White Glove tier
- Documentation: A large FAQ covering both billing and practical pitching questions, a product walkthrough video, and case studies. The documentation is unusually weighted toward how to do PR rather than how to click buttons.
- Community: No formal user community. The company's reach comes from founder Dmitry Dragilev's long-running writing on DIY PR and his interview series with people who have earned coverage without agencies, which functions as the brand's education channel.

## Company

- Founded: 2014
- Founders: Dmitry Dragilev
- Headquarters: United States (distributed team)

## FAQ

### How much does JustReachOut cost?

Starter is $147 per month billed monthly or $98 per month billed annually and includes 100 email sends, one user, and one brand. Advanced is $247 monthly or $165 annually for 300 sends, two users, and five brands. Ultimate is $497 monthly or $331 annually for 1,000 sends, five users, and ten brands. Two service tiers sit above the software: the Jumpstart program at $417 per month billed annually and White Glove at $1,997 per month billed monthly.

### Is there a free trial or a free plan?

There is a 7-day free trial and no free plan. The trial requires a credit card up front and converts to a paid subscription unless you cancel before it ends, which the company says is to prevent repeat trials. Seven days is a short window to judge whether the journalist coverage in your specific niche is deep enough, so plan to actually send pitches during it rather than just browsing.

### Can I export the journalist database or download contact lists?

No. JustReachOut states plainly that it does not provide raw database access and does not allow mass pitch emails to be sent. Contacts are searched and pitched inside the platform, and a list built there does not leave with you when you cancel. If your workflow depends on exporting contacts into a CRM or a sequencing tool, this is a hard blocker rather than a workaround.

### How many emails can I send per month?

100 on Starter, 300 on Advanced, and 1,000 on Ultimate, with custom volume available by arrangement. This is the metered resource and the constraint most subscribers hit first. The cap is deliberate: the product is designed for a small number of well-targeted pitches, not for volume outreach, and no plan turns it into a bulk sending tool.

### Is JustReachOut worth it compared to free HARO alternatives?

The free query services still exist and cost nothing, so the comparison comes down to aggregation and personalization. JustReachOut pulls from six request feeds into one keyword-subscribed view, adds a 700,000-contact journalist database for proactive pitching, and drafts the pitch itself. If you only want to answer source requests and have time to monitor several free feeds daily, the free route is defensible. If you are also pitching proactively and your time has a real cost, the paid tool is easier to justify.

### Who owns JustReachOut now?

Dmitry Dragilev founded it in 2014 and sold a majority stake in late 2020 to Adam White, founder of the backlink tool SEOJet, in a reported high six-figure deal, keeping a minority position. Jon Mest has been CEO since 2024, and the same team launched a separate product, ChatRank, in February 2025. The company remains independent and privately held with no disclosed venture funding.

### Is the JustReachOut journalist data accurate?

Email addresses are human-verified rather than pattern-guessed, which keeps bounce rates lower than tools that generate addresses algorithmically. Freshness is still the most common criticism in public reviews, particularly for reporters who have changed outlets, since journalism has high churn. Check a contact's most recent article date in the record before pitching; if the latest piece is old, treat the address as suspect.

### Does JustReachOut track press coverage after the pitch?

No. The product ends at the pitch: it tracks opens, replies, and follow-ups, but does not monitor whether your mention was published or measure reach and sentiment. Pairing it with a monitoring tool such as Brand24 or Mention covers the other half, and both start at prices a small business can absorb alongside a JustReachOut subscription.

### Can an agency or consultant use JustReachOut for multiple clients?

Yes, and the brand workspace count is the reason to move up a tier: one brand on Starter, five on Advanced, ten on Ultimate. Each brand keeps its own campaigns and sends. Note that the send cap is shared across the account rather than per brand, so a five-client consultant on Advanced has 300 sends to divide, not 300 each.

### Does JustReachOut have an API or integrate with a CRM?

No public API, no documented webhooks, and no native CRM integrations as of August 2026. Pitch history, contacts, and reply data stay inside the product. Teams that expect outreach activity to appear in HubSpot, Pipedrive, or a shared inbox will need to log it manually, which is one of the clearest arguments for a broader PR platform instead.

### JustReachOut vs Muck Rack: which should a small business choose?

Muck Rack has the deeper and better-maintained database and real monitoring and reporting, but sells on annual contracts with quote-only pricing that typically runs into five figures, which excludes most small businesses. JustReachOut publishes its prices, starts at $98 per month annually, and lets you sign up without talking to sales. For a company under roughly twenty people doing its own PR, that difference usually decides it.

### Is justreachout.com the official website?

No. The live product is at justreachout.io, and the company signs its site as JustReachOut Inc. The justreachout.com domain currently resolves to a parked registrar page and does not serve the application, so use the .io address for signup, login, and support.

## Editorial verdict

JustReachOut is one of the few PR tools built on the assumption that the buyer is the person doing the pitching. It publishes its prices, sells without a contract, verifies its email addresses by hand, and pairs a 700,000-contact journalist database with an aggregated feed of live source requests plus an AI writer that removes the personalization bottleneck. For a founder, author, or solo consultant, that is a coherent product at a price a small business can authorize, and the surrounding education is better than most of the category. The constraints are real and worth stating before you buy: the send cap is low and intentional, there is no list export and no API, coverage ends at the pitch with no monitoring on the other side, and public reviews consistently flag contact freshness. Buy it if the hard part of your PR is knowing who to pitch and what to say; do not buy it expecting an outreach engine, a CRM, or a coverage report.
