Press release polisher

What the Claude press release polisher does

Paste in a press release Claude drafted, lede, quote and boilerplate included, and this app rewrites the phrasing so the lede lands with the confidence a news announcement needs, instead of Claude's usual hedged register. Every fact, figure, name and date stays exactly as supplied.

It's a server tool: your text goes to our AI server to get rewritten. You get 5 free runs every 24 hours on a rolling window, nothing to sign up for.

The tell

Why Claude press releases sound like Claude wrote them

This caution shows up differently than typical AI hype, and it's just as recognisable to an editor.

A hedged lede
"This may help improve" opening a release that needs to state plainly what happened.
An over-considered quote
An executive quote carrying qualifiers no one actually speaks in, softened past the point of sounding real.
Over-explained boilerplate
A company description reading like an essay on context, when boilerplate needs two or three plain sentences.
Heavy subordinate clauses
A lede carrying two or three qualifying clauses instead of stating the news directly.
Balanced framing in the lede
A caveat surfacing where the release is supposed to lead with news, not nuance.

How it works

How to polish a Claude press release in three steps

Three steps, and nothing to configure first.

Step 1
Paste the full release, including dateline, quote and boilerplate.
Step 2
Hit Polish. Your text goes to our AI server and comes back rewritten in a few seconds.
Step 3
Verify every fact, figure and quote against your own records before it goes out. Runs left in your window show on the button.

What changes

What the polisher changes, and what it leaves alone

The rewrite turns a softened lede into a direct one, rewrites a quote so it sounds like something a person actually said, trims boilerplate back to a plain factual paragraph, and untangles subordinate clauses into shorter sentences.

It doesn't verify, add or check a single fact, figure, date, name or claim. That responsibility stays with you and whoever approved the release.

The format

Why a press release needs a confident lede

A press release's first job is telling a reporter what happened, plainly. An editor scanning a crowded inbox decides in seconds whether news is worth a second look, and a lede that hedges before stating the news reads as less newsworthy, even with identical facts underneath.

Caution belongs in fact-checking, not the lede. A release can be accurate and confident at once.

Straight answer

Does this verify my facts or guarantee coverage?

No, on both counts. This app rewrites wording. It has no way to check whether a figure is accurate, a quote is real, or a claim is true. Verification is entirely on you before the release goes anywhere.

It also can't promise a reporter covers the story. What it reliably does is turn a hedged announcement into a confident one at the accuracy level your facts actually support.

In practice

Who uses the Claude press release polisher, and when

Startup founders and small comms teams who used Claude for a careful first draft and need the lede to actually lead.

A quick fact-check before sending catches anything this app has no way to verify itself.

Founders and small teams
Turning a careful, hedged AI draft into a direct announcement.
PR freelancers
Cleaning up a client's AI-assisted draft before distribution.
Anyone rereading their own draft
And noticing the news doesn't arrive until the third sentence.

Before you send it

What to check before a press release goes out

A polished release is progress, not final, and every one of these is on you to confirm.

Every figure is accurate
Revenue numbers, dates, percentages and counts should be verified against your own records.
The quote is real or approved
Confirm the named executive actually said or signed off on the words attributed to them.
Confidence matches the facts
If a claim reads more certain than your facts support, dial it back to match.
Boilerplate is current
Employee counts, founding dates and mission language drift out of date fast.
FAQ

Everything answered. Claude press release polisher, frequently asked

How do I polish a Claude-written press release?

Paste the full release above and hit Polish. It comes back with the lede sharpened and facts unchanged within seconds.

Is it free?

Yes: 5 free runs every 24 hours, no account required.

Does it check my facts or figures?

No. It rewrites wording only. Verifying every fact and figure is entirely on you before it goes out.

Will this guarantee media coverage?

No tool can promise that. Coverage depends on the news itself, not the polish on the release.

Why does Claude hedge in a press release lede?

Claude is tuned to avoid overstating an unverifiable claim, which shows up as "may help" where the lede needs a direct statement.

Does it change my quote?

It rewrites a quote's wording so it reads less over-considered, without inventing new words for someone who didn't say them. Confirm final wording with whoever's quoted.

Does it keep my dateline and boilerplate?

The structure stays; boilerplate gets trimmed back toward a plain factual paragraph as part of the same rewrite.

Is my text stored?

It's sent to our AI server to be rewritten and returned, and isn't used to train models.

Does it work on a funding or product launch release?

Yes, the same hedging patterns appear across announcement types and get the same treatment.

Will it make my claims sound more certain than they are?

It's built to match ordinary press release confidence, not overstate a claim. Check the result against your facts and adjust if needed.

How many free runs do I get?

5 per rolling 24-hour window, refreshing 24 hours after each specific run.

Will this bypass an AI detector?

Not a claim we make. We don't test against detectors or tune the rewrite to beat one.

Is there a length limit?

No hard cap, but a long release is easier to verify checked in sections.

Does it apply AP style?

No, it rewrites wording. House style and formatting checks are still yours to run.

Is there a batch mode or an API?

Not yet. Releases run through one at a time, within your daily allowance.

How is this different from a general rewriter?

This app is tuned specifically to press release conventions, the lede, quote and boilerplate, not general prose.

Does it fix a weak headline?

It works on the body you paste. Include the headline and it gets the same treatment; it won't write one from scratch.

Can I use this for an internal announcement?

Yes, the same sharpening applies to any announcement written in release format.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes, fully, in any modern mobile browser.

What should I do after polishing a release?

Fact-check every figure, confirm the quote, then run your normal approval process before distribution.
