Kooc Media, the PR distribution agency that pioneered guaranteed media placements for crypto and fintech companies, has extended its services to cover the artificial intelligence industry. AI startups, machine learning firms, AI SaaS providers and enterprise AI companies can now book fixed-cost PR packages that include professional content creation, confirmed publication across named outlets and full post-campaign reporting with live links to every placement.
The AI PR service uses the same distribution infrastructure that Kooc Media has operated since 2017, giving artificial intelligence companies immediate access to a network that already reaches millions of readers across technology, finance and business media.
“We did not rush into this,” said Michelle De Gouveia, spokesperson for Kooc Media. “We spent months watching the AI market, speaking with founders and understanding what they actually needed from a PR partner. The answer was almost always the same — stop promising coverage and start delivering it. That has been our approach in every other industry we serve, and now AI companies can benefit from it too.”
Most AI Companies Are Paying for PR That Does Not Work
There is a disconnect at the heart of the AI industry’s relationship with public relations. Artificial intelligence is arguably the most discussed technology trend in the world, yet the vast majority of individual AI companies receive little to no press coverage. The attention flows to a handful of household names while thousands of capable, well-funded AI businesses remain unknown outside their immediate networks.
Part of the problem is structural. Traditional PR agencies were not built for the AI startup economy. Their model depends on long-term retainers, relationship-driven outreach and a willingness from clients to accept that coverage is never guaranteed. For a well-established corporation with a large communications budget and the patience to play the long game, that model can work. For an AI startup that has just closed a funding round and needs coverage this month, it is a poor fit.
The budget alternatives are no better. Mass distribution platforms that promise to send a press release to thousands of media contacts sound appealing on paper, but the reality is that almost none of those contacts will publish anything. The content ends up on obscure syndication pages with no readers, no editorial credibility and no value to the company that paid for it.
AI founders and marketing directors searching for AI company PR that works, guaranteed press placements for AI startups, media distribution for artificial intelligence brands or published coverage for machine learning companies have been underserved by both ends of the market. Kooc Media exists specifically to occupy the ground between those two failing approaches.
A Clear Process From Briefing to Published Article
Kooc Media has stripped the complexity out of PR for AI companies. The process works in four stages, each one visible to the client.
First, content is created. Clients can supply a ready-to-publish press release or article, or they can use Kooc Media’s in-house editorial team to write it. The writers have years of experience translating technical subject matter into readable content that works across specialist and mainstream publications. Whether the announcement involves a new AI agent framework, a machine learning API, an enterprise deployment or a seed funding round, the editorial team knows how to frame it for maximum clarity.
Second, the content is published. Kooc Media operates its own portfolio of news websites including Blockonomi, CoinCentral, MoneyCheck, Parameter, Beanstalk and Computing. These owned publications sit at the core of the agency’s model. Because Kooc Media controls the editorial calendar on these sites, publication happens on the client’s schedule rather than at the discretion of an outside editor. Same-day turnaround is standard.
Third, the content is distributed more broadly. Beyond its owned network, Kooc Media pushes content through a partner network spanning hundreds of additional outlets. Premium packages also include newswire syndication to major financial and business platforms such as Business Insider, Bloomberg, Benzinga, MarketWatch, USA Today and Dow Jones feeds.
Fourth, the client receives a complete report listing every published placement with its live URL. Nothing is left to guesswork. The report serves as a permanent record that can be shared with investors, board members, team leads or anyone else who needs to see where the company appeared.
Complimentary AgentLocker.ai Listing With Every AI Package
Kooc Media is adding a layer of value beyond traditional press coverage. Every AI company that purchases a PR package receives a free featured listing on AgentLocker.ai, the agency’s dedicated AI tools and agents directory.
AgentLocker.ai is a curated catalogue of AI tools, AI agents, AI SaaS platforms and machine learning products organised by category and use case. The directory attracts traffic from people actively searching for artificial intelligence solutions — a fundamentally different audience from those who encounter a company through a news article. Where press coverage captures attention in the moment, a directory listing captures intent over time.
The listing is included at no extra cost and requires no separate application. As soon as an AI company books a package through Kooc Media, its place on AgentLocker.ai is confirmed.
“Most of our AI clients tell us they spend money on press coverage and then separately spend money trying to get listed in directories and marketplaces,” said Michelle De Gouveia. “We thought that was unnecessary. AgentLocker.ai is ours, we built it for exactly this purpose, and bundling it with our PR packages means clients get two forms of visibility from one purchase.”
Designed for Industries That Cannot Afford to Wait
Kooc Media cut its teeth in cryptocurrency — an industry where a week-old story is ancient history. That experience shaped every part of how the agency operates. There are no lengthy onboarding processes, no multi-week strategy phases and no drawn-out editorial reviews. The infrastructure is built to move quickly because the industries it serves demand nothing less.
Artificial intelligence operates at a similar tempo. AI companies announce products, close funding rounds, form partnerships and pivot strategies on compressed timescales. A press release that lands three weeks after a product launch has missed its moment. An announcement about a funding round that publishes after a competitor has already dominated the news cycle carries a fraction of the impact it could have had.
Kooc Media’s ability to take a briefing, produce a polished press release and publish it across multiple outlets within a single working day is not a premium add-on. It is the baseline. The agency was engineered for speed from the beginning, and that engineering translates directly into the AI service.
Built on a Foundation That Has Already Delivered
The decision to serve AI companies did not require Kooc Media to reinvent itself. The agency applied a distribution model that has already been tested and proven across three separate industries.
It started with crypto PR in 2017, providing guaranteed placements for blockchain projects, decentralised finance protocols and cryptocurrency exchanges at a time when most traditional agencies would not touch the sector. From there, the agency expanded into fintech before adding gambling and iGaming PR for online casinos, sportsbooks and betting platforms.
Each of those industries demanded the same things from a PR partner — fast execution, confirmed outcomes, transparent reporting and editorial competence in a specialist subject area. Artificial intelligence demands all of those things too. The media network is already in place. The partner distribution channels are already active. The editorial team already understands how to cover complex technology for broad audiences. What has changed is simply the range of industries that can now access the system.
Kooc Media continues to serve its crypto, fintech and iGaming clients alongside the new AI offering. The agency has grown its capacity rather than redirected it. For artificial intelligence companies that have grown tired of PR arrangements built on hope rather than commitments, Kooc Media offers something different — a service where every placement is confirmed before a client spends a penny.
