Which one fits your team?
- You want proactive research and draft pitches grounded in each client’s context.
- You want writing and factual-support checks beside the draft before deciding to send.
- You prefer public plan pricing and want to test one client before expanding.
- You want to evaluate Propel’s AI agent alongside its media database and PR relationship management.
- Your team wants to confirm Gmail or Outlook integration with its existing outreach process.
Keeping another platform?
- Keep another platform where its data, source coverage or established workflow adds value. No native integration or automatic migration is implied.
A useful head start. A clear record.
Research gives you a reason to reach out. Reporting keeps the activity and observed results in view.

Setup and switching: what carries over?
- Add the client profile, writing samples and supporting facts.
- Configure relevant research, inspect reporter matches and review a draft.
- Verify your sending domain before choosing to send.
- Do not assume media lists, relationship notes, historical sends or saved searches transfer automatically.
- Confirm export rights and the supported import path. RunPR does not replace wire distribution or every monitoring source in a wider suite.
How to start.
Test one client with a real story and evidence you know. Compare reporter relevance, the corrections a draft needs and the review experience before changing your wider stack.
Compare the same client, story and reporting needs in both products. A feature list alone does not establish data quality or time saved.

Before you decide.
Does Propel also use AI for pitch drafting?
Yes. Propel describes research, story ideas, pitch drafting and fact checking in its AI agent. Test both products with the same client context and compare the relevance, evidence and review work required.
How should I compare pricing?
Use a current written scope for your users, clients, monitoring sources and AI features. RunPR publishes its own Solo, Studio and Agency pricing; competitor package details need confirmation.
Check the evidence.
