Everything musicians need, in one place

Release press outreach

Blogs and local media, pitched properly

Target music blogs, local outlets, and niche publications with release pitches that lead with the story — not just "new single out now." Track opens, replies, and coverage per outlet.

Podcast interviews

The long-form fan converter

Music, scene, and topic podcasts (your genre, your city, your story) introduce you at full depth — an hour of connection no playlist placement matches.

Fan community

Own your audience for once

A branded community for superfans — updates, exclusives, paid tiers if you want — that no algorithm change can take away from you.

Release checklist & CRM

The campaign, organized

Stage-by-stage release tasks (announce, pre-save, release, post-release) plus a CRM of every writer, host, and curator relationship — warmer with every cycle.

Why musicians choose PitchIQ

Keep the publicist's budget

$1-3K per release buys a stranger's contact list for one cycle. Run it yourself and the relationships — the actual asset — accrue to you.

Story beats stream-count

Writers don't cover 'new single'; they cover the story around it. PitchIQ drafts angle-first pitches from your profile — the why, not just the what.

Local first, scene second, national third

The realistic coverage ladder for independents. The CRM tracks each rung so every release starts where the last one ended.

Superfans pay the rent

A 200-person community at a few dollars a month out-earns hundreds of thousands of streams — and it's yours.

Frequently asked questions

Do music blogs still matter in the playlist era?

For independents, yes — coverage feeds the algorithm's credibility signals, gives fans something to share, and builds the press kit that bookers and labels check. Playlists spike streams; press builds a name.

What's the story I'm supposed to pitch?

The thing only you can say: the scene you came from, what the record is about, the unusual way it was made. PitchIQ's profile asks for these and builds each pitch around the angle that fits the outlet.

Can it find playlist curators too?

You can manage curator outreach through the same pipeline — add targets, draft personal pitches, track follow-ups. (No pay-for-placement schemes; those hurt more than help.)

What goes in the fan community?

Whatever you'd post on socials, plus what you wouldn't: demos, early tickets, voice notes, behind-the-scenes. Free tier for reach, paid tier for the inner circle — your call.

What's free to try?

Profile, outlet discovery, and pitch drafting are free. Paid plans add sending, follow-ups, the community, and release checklists.
