Added Apr 2, 2026

Write a professional press release for [COMPANY_NAME] announcing [ANNOUNCEMENT_TYPE]. Here are the key details: [KEY_DETAILS]. The target media outlets are [TARGET_MEDIA]. Follow standard press release format: start with a dateline (city, state — date), write a compelling headline that summarizes the news in under 10 words, include a subheadline that adds context, open with the most newsworthy information in the first paragraph (who, what, when, where, why), expand with supporting details and data points in the body paragraphs, include a quote from [SPOKESPERSON_NAME] who is [SPOKESPERSON_TITLE], add relevant industry context or market data to establish significance, close with a boilerplate 'About [COMPANY_NAME]' section, and end with media contact information placeholder. Keep the total length between 400-600 words. Write in AP style. Make the tone authoritative but not promotional — journalists should be able to use this with minimal editing.
