The Old Way

Outside the Workflow

Constantly switching between tabs, databases, and inboxes just to chase a quote.
Unverified or AI-Generated Sources

Wasting time sorting real expertise from noise, bots, or PR spin.
No Contact Info, Just Pitch Forms

Dead ends and delays — especially when you're on deadline.
AI-Generated SEO Junk

The internet is flooded with low-quality content. Outdated lists and unreliable tools amplify noise from unvetted, untrustworthy sources.
“Free” Platforms That Sell Your Email

They claim to be free — but sell your contact info instead, flooding your inbox with unsolicited PR spam.
