Instead of Presspage
Stop renting Presspage. Own your media relations desk.
We build your version around how you handle journalist enquiries and approve statements, bring your Presspage contact records across, and run it for you. Your response rules and history stay with your business.
Presspage lists Business from €20,000 a year and Enterprise from €35,000 a year. Both starting prices depend on your setup.

What the subscription buys
A communications platform, renewed every year
Presspage bundles publishing, distribution and media operations. Start by separating the internal desk you can own from the connected services you still need.
An annual platform bill
Business starts at €20,000 a year. Enterprise starts at €35,000 a year, with the final package based on your setup.
Your contact workspace
Owned contacts, lists and restrictions live inside the paid workspace. They can leave through its contact export.
The enquiry desk
Incoming media questions are organised by owner, status and deadline. These are records your team can manage in its own system.
Prepared statements
Reusable responses sit beside enquiries. Your own desk can keep their wording, reviewer evidence and revision history together.
Newsroom publishing
Public publishing is part of the wider platform. We scope the newsroom your business needs when building your version.
Connected distribution
Email and media discovery are separate from owning your internal records. Keep licensed sources and distribution services where your business needs them.
The desk you own
An answer starts with checked records

Ask it anything
Questions your own media desk answers
These questions run against the working demo. The difference is that you can change the rules and join your own history. This is not a claim about every report Presspage offers.
Switching
Move the desk with the records checked
Start with owned contacts and a real enquiry. Agree the connected services separately.
- 1
Export your owned contacts
Select the intended contacts or lists in Presspage and export them. Keep the original private and include any restrictions.
- 2
Test the mapping
Run a test import and compare unique email addresses, names, outlets, segments and restricted contacts. Different headings need a mapping before the records are accepted.
- 3
Check the enquiry workflow
Record an incoming question, its owner and deadline. Add the approved wording and embargo, then prepare an internal response draft.
- 4
Move the agreed services
Enterprise DNA brings the remaining agreed history across and builds the connections your version needs. Retain existing services until the replacement work is checked.
Where the real effort goes
The contact import is one part of the switch. Your existing newsroom, distribution, approvals and record-retention process determine the rest of the work.

Questions
Instead of Presspage, answered
Does the free version replace every part of Presspage? expand_more
It runs your owned-contact, enquiry and statement-approval desk. It prepares internal drafts and reports. A public newsroom, email delivery, licensed media discovery and investor announcements are separate services. Enterprise DNA scopes the screens and connections your version needs before any switch.
Can we bring our contacts and history across? expand_more
Presspage documents contact and list exports. The free version imports the contact records, preserves the original fields and rejects conflicting duplicates. Its example is synthetic, so test a real export and check the counts. Conversations, releases and attachments need a separate mapping that Enterprise DNA can build into your version.
Will it send an unapproved or embargoed statement? expand_more
The free version sends and publishes nothing. It blocks response drafts until the current statement is approved and its embargo ends. Changing wording removes the old approval. A person still checks the final response and recipient before using it.
How does the price compare with Presspage? expand_more
Presspage lists Business from €20,000 a year and Enterprise from €35,000 a year, depending on your setup. The free version has no software licence fee; hosting and an assistant subscription are separate. Enterprise DNA agrees a setup fee and then a retainer for your custom or managed version.
Who controls access and the contact records? expand_more
You own the database. The free version is for a trusted operator and records purposes, review dates and contact restrictions. Those checks identify review work; they do not certify compliance. Enterprise DNA can set up the access controls, backups and retention process for your team.
Bring your Presspage bill and one real enquiry
In a 30-minute call, Sam will work through the records you need, the services you still use and what your own media desk should do first.
Media Relations for Claude Code is free and open source, published by Enterprise DNA.
