For modern communications teams
Find the right journalists. Pitch with confidence.
Build a media list in minutes. Lede surfaces the journalists who actually cover your beat — with verified contacts, fresh recent work, and tailored pitch angles.
What Lede does
Three moves, one workspace.
Discovery.
Describe your story in plain English. Lede builds a ranked list of reporters who are actually covering that beat right now — with the receipts to back it up.
Verification.
Every contact is checked against fresh bylines, current outlet, and recent moves. No more pitching ghosts. The cards stay green because we refresh fields, not whole profiles.
Outreach.
Draft pitches grounded in each reporter's recent work, send from your own inbox, and track every reply in one place. CRM without the bloat.
What you ship
A media list that reads like a byline.
