Could you build this?
Partial The site and pitch-drafting UI are easy to build, but the value depends on a hand-curated database of 600+ journalists and accurate beat matching, which a builder cannot easily reproduce.
What it would actually take: The app itself is a web front end with an LLM that matches a company description to reporter beats and drafts pitches. The real moat is a maintained, verified database of journalists with beats, contact data, and recent articles, which requires ongoing research, scraping, and compliance with contact-data rules. A serious version needs a data team or access to an existing media database.
