About Embargo
We're building the tool we wish existed when embargoed pitching meant endless email threads, "Did you open this yet?" follow-ups, and spreadsheet chaos.
Embargo is a lightweight, secure platform that helps PR pros share embargoed news with reporters — the right way. Whether you're part of a global agency or flying solo on an in-house team, Embargo gives you control, visibility, and peace of mind when it matters most.
Because the truth is: embargoed pitching hasn't evolved much in years. It's still a mess of copy-pasted terms, inconsistent tracking, and way too much time spent chasing confirmations. We believe there's a better way — so we built it.
With Embargo, you can:
Secure & Trackable Sharing
Send secure, trackable links to your embargoed press releases — no PDF attachments, no weird ZIP files.
Custom Embargo Terms
Customize embargo terms and require reporters to explicitly accept before they see your pitch.
Complete Visibility
Know exactly who opened, accepted, declined, or responded — with no guessing.
Simplified Responses
Let journalists respond fast with one-click options like 'Yes, I will cover' or 'No, not this time.'
Precise Timing
Set precise embargo times, and keep everything in one clean dashboard.
We're not here to replace your media relationships — we're here to make them smoother. Embargo fits into your workflow without trying to take it over. It's built for speed, clarity, and those "I just need to send this to 12 people right now" moments.
Whether you're sending a one-off startup launch or running coordinated pre-briefings across time zones, Embargo gives you the structure and signal you've been missing.
