People-powered intelligence
The speed of AI. The judgment of experts.
Everyone else uses a computer to guess what’s being said about their company. We have real people check the model's work and teach it about your brand specifically, so the answers are actually right. In fact, they get sharper with every interaction.
When every vendor, every competitor, and every in-house team can generate the same instant AI summary, the summary stops being worth anything. What's rare isn't AI. It's intelligence: knowing what the signals actually mean before everyone else does.
Real intelligence takes more than a model. It takes a human analyst who knows your business, validates what matters, and tells you what to do about it.
That is what PublicRelay builds. The world's most scrutinized companies, in energy, financial services, and healthcare, treat our reads as an extension of their own communications office.
“PublicRelay has become an indispensable part of our media intelligence workflow. What sets them apart is the human element. Their analysts bring genuine judgment to article tagging and media quality scoring that automated tools simply can't replicate.”
Gary Wahlquist
Manager of External Affairs Insights, Chick-fil-A
Outcomes built by people, accelerated by AI
What we can help you do
Unlike a model-only platform that hands you more work, every PublicRelay program is built around your organization and run by a human analyst who understands it. Below are four of our most popular programs.
Steer the narrative
Reputation Management
Reputations are built one conversation at a time. We developed our intelligence capabilities to help you know which conversations are shifting the story and move before they define your brand. This is our collaborative, go-to program for highly visible enterprises.
What you get: Sensei, Real-time alerts, Newsletters, Performance Reports, Recommendations, Reputation Score, Media Quality Score, and Self-Serve Analysis
Understand how your stakeholders think
Media Insights
Every industry has a handful of influential people everyone seems to be listening to. We help you find them, understand their sway, and put your team in position to engage where it matters. This bespoke program is great for companies operating in practice areas that generate a lot of conversation. If chatter shapes public opinion, this one's for you.
What you get: Sensei, Performance Reports, Recommendations, and Horizon Scans
Navigate your competitive landscape
Brand and Industry Insights
The future has a habit of leaving clues. We help you unpack the narratives, trends, and competitive signals shaping your industry, and tell you what they mean for your next move. This program is built for highly competitive industries where staying ahead matters most.
What you get: Sensei, Performance Reports, Recommendations, Self-Serve Analysis, and Horizon Scans.
Protect your brand and business
Risk Management
Most crises start as stories that haven't fully taken hold yet. We help you see them building and act before they break. This analyst-backed program is critical to highly visible businesses operating in highly regulated or unpredictable industries or environments.
What you get: Sensei, Real-time alerts, Recommendations, Self-Serve Analysis, and Horizon Scans.
We’re trusted by the world’s biggest brands

What you get
Your model-only tools function like WebMD. When you type in your symptoms, they review their database and generate the same answer for you that they would give everyone else. What you get with PublicRelay isn't just a database. It's a relationship. We operate like a doctor who has known you for fifteen years.
We know your business. We know your industry. And we work in a way that suits you. That's why the deliverables we create are concise, on-the-money, and ready to be reported up. Here's what you get:

A branded, interactive intelligence newsletter built around your specific needs, collaboratively created and customized so it arrives ready to use.
Narrative Briefings

Inside our people-powered intelligence layer
How we do it
Every PublicRelay program delivers deep insights powered by a customized intelligence layer.Validated, custom data going in is why the methods are trustworthy. Trustworthy methods are why the analyses are defensible. Defensible analyses are why the outcomes hold up in a boardroom. Our competitors use off-the-shelf AI, and no human validation. Their answers are fast, but ours are right.
The living intelligence layer compounds over time. As more data is added, the system gets to know your business better, and the gap between what we see and what everyone else sees keeps widening. Here's how it comes together.
We believe human judgment makes AI unstoppable
Our company
Intelligence shouldn't just fill executive presentations. It can move industries, but only if it resonates. We are dedicated to that cause. PublicRelay is a global team of analysts, communicators, technologists, and strategists united by three simple beliefs.
The world doesn't need more information; it needs better understanding.
That's why we work to help you make sense of it. Every program is backed by analysts who understand your industry. We're committed to building a world-class intelligence layer that helps communications leaders understand what matters and what to do next.
The best client experience isn’t just a feature.
It's a feeling. We want our clients to know that whenever a challenge appears, they have a team of people who already care about solving it. There is always a human accountable for what we send you.
The future has a habit of arriving early.
We spend our days looking for clues, testing ideas, and building new ways to help organizations navigate a world that keeps changing faster than most tools can keep up.
Human-verified intelligence is our passion
Our people
From Orange County to Washington DC, from West Palm Beach to Chicago, and from Ireland to India, our global team helps some of the world's most recognized organizations make sense of a noisy world. We combine human expertise and the power of AI to advance what matters.
