Press release polisher

What the Perplexity press release polisher does

Paste in a press release Perplexity drafted and this app rewrites it so the company is making the announcement directly, instead of the summarized, sourced-sounding distance Perplexity tends to carry in. 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 and comes back a few seconds later. You get 5 free runs every 24 hours on a rolling window, nothing to sign up for.

The tell

Why Perplexity press releases read like Perplexity wrote them

An editor scanning a crowded inbox spots this shape fast: an announcement reported rather than made.

A lede written like a summarized finding: "Sources indicate the company plans to launch a new platform," instead of the company stating its own news.
Third-person distance from the company's news: Phrasing describing the company from the outside, as if reporting on someone else's announcement.
Hedges borrowed from search summarization: "According to available information," sourced-sounding phrasing with no place in the company's own release.
A synthesized, balanced tone: Even-handed phrasing built for summarizing viewpoints, applied to a single confident announcement.
Leftover citation-style brackets: Numbered reference marks with nothing in a press release for them to point to.

How it works

How to polish a Perplexity press release in three steps

Three steps, and nothing to configure first.

Step 1: Paste the full release, including the dateline, quote and boilerplate paragraph.
Step 2: Hit Polish. Your text goes to our AI server and comes back rewritten in a few seconds.
Step 3: Compare it to your original and verify every fact, figure and quote is unchanged 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 summarized, third-person finding into the company's own direct statement, drops sourcing-style hedges and leftover citation marks, and states the news plainly, in the company's own voice.

It doesn't verify, add, or check a single fact, figure, date, name or claim. That responsibility stays entirely with you and whoever approved the release before it went to this app.

Why it happens

Why Perplexity writes releases like a summarized answer

Perplexity is built around synthesizing an answer from sources and reporting what those sources say, right for a research question and wrong for a release, where the company is the source and needs to speak directly.

That instinct toward balanced, sourced-sounding summary shows up as distance: an announcement reported rather than made, because the habit is describing what's out there, not speaking directly as the company issuing the news.

Straight answer

Does this verify my facts or guarantee coverage?

No, on both counts. This app rewrites the wording you give it. It can't check a figure, confirm a quote, or verify a claim about your product or company. That's on you before the release goes anywhere.

It also can't promise coverage. What it reliably does is turn a summarized report into a direct company statement, a real improvement on its own.

In practice

Who uses the Perplexity press release polisher, and when

Startup founders and small comms teams who got back something that reads like a summary of the news.

A quick check before sending catches anything the rewrite couldn't have known to verify.

Startup founders: Turning a summarized report into a direct company statement.
PR freelancers: Cleaning up a client's AI-assisted draft before distribution.
Anyone rereading a Perplexity-drafted release: And noticing it sounds like it's reporting on the company rather than speaking for it.

FAQ

Everything answered. Perplexity press release polisher, frequently asked

How do I polish a Perplexity-written press release?

Paste the full release above and hit Polish. It comes back as a direct company statement 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 claim 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.

Why does Perplexity write my lede like a summarized finding?

It's built to synthesize and report back what sources say, a habit that carries into a release as third-person distance.

Why does Perplexity add sourcing-style hedges to my release?

Phrasing like "according to available information" comes from a register built for citing sources, with nothing to cite in the company's own release.

Does it change my quote?

It rewrites wording so a quote reads as a direct statement rather than a summarized finding, but it doesn't invent new words for someone who didn't say them.

Does it keep my dateline and boilerplate?

The structure stays; boilerplate gets the same directness correction as the rest of the release.

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 announcement or product launch?

Yes, the same summarized-answer pattern shows up across announcement types.

Will it add claims I didn't include?

It shouldn't add a new factual claim. Remove or correct anything that reads as saying more than you gave it.

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 very 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 the general AI press release polisher?

This one targets Perplexity's summarized, sourced-sounding habit specifically. A ChatGPT or Claude draft fits that model's own version better.

Does it remove leftover citation brackets?

Yes, any numbered reference marks left over are removed, since a press release has nothing for them to point to.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes, fully, in any modern mobile browser.

What should I do after polishing?

Fact-check every figure and confirm the quote with whoever is named before distribution.

Does it work on a release written in another language?

It's built and tested primarily for English. Other languages may work, but quality isn't guaranteed to the same degree.

Will the polished release run shorter than my draft?

Often a little, since removing sourcing-style hedges and leftover citation marks tends to tighten a release rather than add to it.
