PitchCentric
For founders

Where founders find their next stage.

The booking-intelligence platform built for founders at venture-backed companies who want to land podcast appearances on the shows that actually move pipeline. Replace your retainer. Reach the rooms your investors are already in.

The thesis

Why founders are moving earned media in-house.

The economics changed. A retainer used to buy you a Rolodex. Today, the Rolodex is public. Every podcast on Earth indexes itself, and every host who is open to guests says so in their feed. What you actually need is a system that ranks them, a writer that drafts the first version, and an inbox that lands.

That is what PitchCentric is. It is not a "PR replacement": it is the modern founder's earned-media stack. Three afternoons of work a month, on a Founder plan, beats a $9K retainer for the kind of founder who already knows their own story.

Pitch quality

You'll never send a pitch that embarrasses you.

Before any pitch can send, PitchCentric grades it across 10 quality dimensions: groundedness, specificity, length, banned phrases, episode references, and more. You see the grade before you decide.

What gets checked
Podcast name actually appears in the body
Specific episode or topic cited, not a generic 'your show'
At least one concrete number (%, $, count)
Subject line is 15-60 characters
Body is 120-180 words, no walls of text
No banned AI phrases ('thought leader', 'amazing opportunity')
No em-dashes (the clearest AI authorship signal)
Max 3 bullet points
AGrade A: Ready to send

0 quality failures. Specific episode cited. Concrete numbers. Clean length. No AI fingerprints.

CGrade C: Review suggested

2 failures flagged. Missing episode reference. Generic opener detected. Worth a 30-second edit.

FGrade F: AI stalled

AI could not generate a clean draft and used a fallback template. Manual personalization required before sending.

Review mode

Every pitch waits for your explicit approval. The send button is gated. Nothing goes out without your say.

Auto-send A/B

Grade A and B pitches send on their own. C, D, and F grades stay in the queue for your review before sending.

Approval is hash-locked

If you edit a pitch after approving it, the approval clears automatically. No accidentally sending a version you haven't reviewed.
