## HR Tech PR — frequently asked questions

**What is HR tech PR?**

HR tech PR is the practice of earning media coverage and credibility for HR technology and workplace companies — getting leaders quoted in workplace press, research covered by business media, executives booked on podcasts, and named when buyers ask AI assistants for HR software recommendations. It combines media relations, research-driven storytelling, awards, and generative engine optimization (GEO).

**How do HR companies get press coverage?**

The fastest path is answering journalist requests: workplace reporters post source queries on HARO, Connectively, X, and LinkedIn daily — on AI in hiring, RTO, and pay transparency — and original survey data wins the quote. Layer on practitioner bylines, podcast guest spots, and award submissions. Featured surfaces all of these in one chat and drafts responses built on your research.

**How much does HR tech PR cost?**

PR budgets vary widely with scope, goals, and the partners involved. Featured itself is free to start, with paid plans at $39/month (Lite) and $79/month (Pro, billed annually) — and every plan includes every capability: journalist requests, podcasts, bylines, awards, monitoring, and GEO tracking. Many HR tech companies and their agency partners run Featured alongside their existing PR programs.

**What is GEO (generative engine optimization) for workplace brands?**

GEO is the practice of improving how AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini describe your company. When buyers ask “best HR software for mid-size companies,” those answers are built from press coverage, review sites, analyst notes, and community discussion. Featured audits your AI share of voice for your buying prompts and tracks it weekly.

**How do I get my company mentioned in ChatGPT and Perplexity answers?**

AI engines cite brands that appear consistently across credible sources: HR trades, business press work desks, review sites, r/humanresources-style communities, and podcasts. That means earned media is the input to AI visibility. Run a GEO audit to see where you stand today, then close the gap with journalist requests, bylines, and podcast placements — and measure weekly.

**Is HARO still active for HR tech sources?**

Yes. Featured owns and operates HARO (Help a Reporter Out) and Connectively, and an expert is connected with a publisher every 6 seconds across the platforms. Workplace topics — AI in hiring, return-to-office policies, pay transparency — are among the most frequently requested source categories, and Featured matches you to relevant queries automatically.

**How do I find HR tech journalists to pitch?**

Ask Featured to build a media list of reporters who have covered your topic in the last 90 days — for example, “journalists writing about AI hiring tools.” You'll get names, outlets, beats, and recent headlines, so every pitch references the reporter's actual work instead of going in cold.

**How long does HR tech PR take to show results?**

Journalist-request responses can land placements within days, since reporters are on deadline. Bylines and podcasts typically take 2–8 weeks from pitch to publish. AI visibility moves more slowly: expect roughly 1–3 months for new coverage to shift how AI assistants answer, which is why continuous tracking beats one-off audits.

**Who uses Featured for HR tech PR?**

HR tech founders and comms leads, CHROs and workplace researchers building profiles, and agencies scaling coverage for HR clients. Agencies are among Featured's power users: the co-pilot handles opportunity discovery, drafting, and monitoring around the clock, so strategists can spend their time on messaging, relationships, and counsel.

**Which HR tech awards and podcasts should we target?**

Start with the recognized programs — Top HR Products-style honors and best-workplace lists — then let Featured track deadlines and criteria. For podcasts, Featured's database tracks 814,000 active shows; describe your expertise in plain language and it returns HR and future-of-work shows that actually book practitioners.
