PRAPI vs Featured.
Featured: An AI chatbot that aggregates journalist requests and auto-drafts pitches.
Operators searching for a Featured alternative usually want AI-drafted pitches grounded in their own brand voice, plus routing across more than one brand.
PRAPI and Featured both aggregate source requests and draft pitches with AI. The difference is grounding. Featured's drafts are not tied to your brand voice. PRAPI validates every draft against your brand's brief.md and routes across every brand you run, so each pitch sounds like the brand it is for.

FAQ
Is Featured the same as the old HARO / Featured?
No. The original Featured journalist Q&A was renamed Connectively (at connectively.us). Today's Featured.com is a separate, net-new outbound product: an AI chatbot that aggregates source requests across the major platforms and auto-drafts pitches.
Is PRAPI a Featured alternative?
Yes. Both aggregate source requests and draft pitches with AI. The difference is grounding — PRAPI validates every draft against your brand's brief.md and routes across up to 10 brands, while Featured's drafts are not tied to your brand voice.
What does PRAPI do that Featured does not?
Brand-grounded drafts via brief.md voice validation, multi-brand routing on one bill, send-from-your-own-inbox, and an open portable brand spec instead of context that lives in a chatbot session.
Are Featured's AI drafts grounded in my brand voice?
Not today — Featured drafts from what you tell the chatbot, without a persistent brand voice spec. PRAPI grounds every draft in your brand's brief.md: the phrases you use, the ones you avoid, the tone you keep. That is what makes a draft sound like the brand it is for.
