FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Press Shield different from Meltwater or Cision? ▼

Press Shield delivers AI-powered media intelligence at 90%+ lower cost than enterprise tools. While Meltwater and Cision charge $5,000-$50,000+/year and require annual contracts, Press Shield starts at $49/mo with no commitment. You get AI-generated strategic recommendations, not just data dashboards — plus live web scraping for real-time intelligence.

What is Live Web Intelligence? ▼

Live Web Intelligence (Pillar 6) uses Firecrawl technology to scrape the web in real time. This powers tools like Brand Monitor (live brand mention detection), Competitor Press (scrape competitor newsrooms), Journalist Intel (research journalist profiles and recent work), Trending Topics (detect what's trending in your industry), Outlet Research (deep-dive media outlet analysis), and Breaking Scanner (scan for breaking news in your niche). Available on Newsroom plans.

Is Press Shield a replacement for a PR agency? ▼

Press Shield is a powerful complement to PR teams, not a replacement. It automates monitoring, analysis, and content drafting so your team (or agency) can focus on relationships and strategy. Many PR agencies use Press Shield to serve more clients efficiently.

How accurate is the sentiment analysis? ▼

Press Shield uses GPT-4.1-mini for sentiment analysis, which provides nuanced understanding of tone, context, and implications — far beyond simple keyword-based tools. While no AI is perfect, our analysis captures sarcasm, mixed sentiment, and industry-specific language with high accuracy.

Can I monitor multiple brands? ▼

Yes. Every tool accepts different brand names per request — monitor your own brand, competitors, or client brands. The watchlist feature lets you save brands for quick access. PR agencies often use Press Shield to monitor entire client portfolios.

Can I cancel anytime? ▼

Absolutely. All plans are month-to-month with no annual contracts, no cancellation fees, and no lock-in. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel directly from your dashboard at any time.
