Keeping Track of Press Coverage Without the Chaos

Press mentions arrive from local news, education press, and social media at unpredictable times, and it's easy for a follow-up request or a correction opportunity to slip through the cracks when coverage is tracked across scattered inboxes.

This free tracker keeps every media mention in one place, flags overdue follow-ups automatically, and gives your communications team a live view of coverage sentiment they can check at any time.
