Built to stay

Independent software for independent agencies.

No holding company above us. No investors behind us. Pitcher is structured so the tool you build your business on stays yours to rely on.

  • Never acquired

    No venture capital, no exit. The tool you build your contact history in can’t be bought and shut down.

  • Your price is locked

    The price you sign up at is the price you keep. No surprise renewal quote, ever.

  • Profit capped at $200K

    Above the cap, surplus builds the next tool for independent professionals — not investor returns. Our incentives can’t drift into your bill.

  • Your data stays yours

    Your contacts, coverage and reports are yours — never sold, never held hostage to a renewal. Getting your data out is a right, not a negotiation.

One pitch, end to end

From draft to client report. Nothing to remember in between.

  1. Write the pitch once, in Pitcher.

    Compose against your media list, personalized per journalist with merge fields. Nothing sends until you say so — or the time you set — then Pitcher paces the batch through your mailbox rather than firing it all at once.

    • CSV/XLSX import & dedup
    • Podcast discovery
    • Merge tokens
    • Per-mailbox signatures
    The pitch composer with merge fields in the subject and body, and a media list selected alongside it.
  2. It sends from your own mailbox — not ours.

    The pitch leaves through a mailbox you already own — your address, your sent folder, your reputation with the people you’re writing to.

    • Gmail & Microsoft
    • Paced queue & daily caps
    • BCC capture
    • Opt-out gates
    From the app

    Pitcher sends through your connected Gmail or Microsoft account. The sent item sits in your real Sent folder, like any mail you wrote yourself.

    From anywhere

    On your phone, or replying inside an existing thread? BCC the campaign address and the send is captured all the same.

    Either way: the same pitch, tracked in the same campaign.

  3. When coverage appears, it attaches itself to the campaign.

    Detected and logged automatically to the campaign, inside that client’s view — no pasting links back in after the fact.

    • AI flags, you confirm
    • Syndication dedup
    • GA4 traffic deltas
    • Audited reach
    A confirmed coverage story attached to the campaign, showing the outlet, headline and date.
  4. A white-label report goes to your client.

    Pitches sent, journalists contacted, coverage secured — in a PDF under your name, not ours.

    • White-label PDF
    • AI-drafted narrative, you approve
    • Pitch report
    • Stored snapshots
    A white-label PDF report cover carrying the agency’s own branding rather than Pitcher’s.

The details other tools skip

Discovery

Pitch the byline you didn’t have.

When a story breaks from a reporter who isn’t on your list, add them straight from the news feed and pitch them off their own article.

Accuracy

One story, one placement.

Syndicated pickups roll up into a single placement, so your coverage count holds up when a client checks it.

Deliverability

Every address shows its source.

Enriched emails are labeled — masthead, bio page, pitch desk or inferred pattern. Opt-outs and suppressions are enforced before anything sends.

Reporting

AI drafts the narrative. You approve it.

AI drafts the campaign story, naming the outlets that mattered. You edit and sign off before it goes into your white-label PDF with GA4 traffic and outlet reach.

See the whole operation.

Every client’s pitches, follow-ups and deadlines in one place. Overdue items surface on their own, so nothing slips.

Pitcher tasks board grouped by client
Agency operations

Run the agency, not just the pitches.

The back office that usually lives in three other tools — approvals, capacity, billing — sits next to the work it's about.

Security

Your contacts are your business. We guard them that way.
