Featured gives PR professionals, agencies, and business owners more media opportunities at a fraction of the cost — plus early access to HARO queries that other platforms simply cannot offer.
A direct, no-spin comparison of what each platform actually gives you.
The differences are practical: faster access, more ways to pitch, and pricing that still works when your team is sending volume every week.
Featured acquired Help a Reporter Out in 2025. Members get early access to HARO queries the moment reporters submit them — before email digests go out to anyone else.
On a competitor's free plan, queries are hidden for two full hours. In media, that window can mean missing a story entirely. Featured has no artificial delays on any plan.
Featured's AI assistant drafts polished, relevant pitches in seconds — a real time-saver for agencies managing multiple clients across dozens of queries each week.
Featured is the only platform that lets you pitch full-length bylined articles directly to publishers. Build real thought leadership — not just a single sentence in someone else's piece.
Featured's Pro plan has no pitch caps. A competitor's Pro plan limits you to 35 per month — a hard ceiling for agencies running active outreach. On Featured, pitch without limits.
Featured starts at $19/month — over 7× cheaper than a competitor's Pro plan. For agencies, Featured publishes clear pricing. No custom quotes. No surprises. Just a plan that fits.
Featured acquired HARO from Cision in 2025, restoring the platform millions relied on — and combining it with Featured's existing expert-publisher network.
Featured's mid-tier plan outperforms a competitor's top plan — at a third of the cost.
"The deal-breaker was cost. A competitor's pricing didn't make sense for our agency — we'd blow the budget before hitting our pitch volume targets. Featured gives us unlimited submissions and we're still saving $100 a month."
Ross K.
Director of Search Marketing
"I tried a competitor for three months. The 35-pitch cap was a constant ceiling. On Featured, I don't even think about limits — I just respond to what's relevant and track everything in one place."
Jamie L.
PR Consultant, Independent
"What put it over the edge was HARO. The fact that Featured owns it means I see queries before anyone using a competitor does. That timing advantage has led to two Forbes placements in six weeks."
