Use case

Watch corporate newsrooms.
Read the announcement before the wire picks it up.

Company news usually lands on the brand’s own newsroom or blog first. Zikit watches those pages 24/7 and AI-summarizes every post. For PR teams tracking competitors, IR analysts watching portfolio companies, and journalists covering a beat.

FAQ

How is this different from a PR wire service subscription?

PR wires (Business Wire, PR Newswire, GlobeNewswire) only cover companies that pay to distribute through them. Many brands post to their own newsroom directly and skip the wire. Zikit watches the actual newsroom page - you catch everything regardless of distribution channel.

Can I monitor a company's LinkedIn or X/Twitter feed?

No - those are dynamic social feeds behind auth and rate limits. Zikit monitors the public newsroom/press/blog URL. Most serious corporate announcements land there before they hit social.

What if the company doesn't have a dedicated newsroom?

Many companies use /blog, /news, /announcements, or /about/news. The pattern is the same - add the URL, set your frequency, pick your alert channel. Works on any public HTML page.

How fast will I see a new press release?

Depends on your plan: every 15 minutes (Business), hourly (Pro), daily (Free). Most newsroom updates are predictable - morning drops around 8-9am local time. Business plan catches them near-instantly; Pro catches them within an hour.

Can Zikit filter out boilerplate announcements?

Yes. The AI rates each change 1-10 on business impact. Junior promotions, office openings, and recurring partnership posts typically score low. Product launches, pricing changes, and leadership changes score high. You set the threshold for alerts.
