About NewsCrafters

Become a News Curator

We made it easier than ever for you to weigh in on the news. No costly councils to join, no gatekeepers to convince. Just pick the stories that matter to your industry, add your expertise, and publish.

It's free - and it builds your influence.

What is NewsCrafters?

NewsCrafters bridges the gap between paid press releases and earned organic visibility. Every day, thousands of stories go out over the newswires - and most of them are read once and forgotten. NewsCrafters lets you curate that news into unique, expert-driven articles that keep working for you long after the headline fades.

The platform was created by David McInnis, the founder of PRWeb and Newsworthy.ai, to connect the paid world of press releases to the organic power of curated content.

“When you combine AI efficiency with human insight, the results are immediate. Even before the official launch, curated articles began earning strong search visibility, appearing alongside major news outlets.”
- David McInnis, founder of NewsCrafters, Newsworthy.ai, and PRWeb

How It Works

A “human-in-the-middle” model: AI does the heavy lifting, you provide the expertise.

1. Pick the news that matters

Source stories from more than a dozen press release newswires - hundreds of thousands of fresh, newsworthy stories across every industry. Stick to your vertical and become the go-to voice for your topic.

2. AI drafts it in your voice

Our AI generates a first draft based on your author persona and tone - Humanistic, Analytical, Competitive, and more. No blank page, no hours of writing.

3. You refine and publish

You stay in the middle. Add your expertise, your perspective, your credibility - then publish. That human touch is what makes the content authentic and authoritative.

Why Curate the News?

From startup founders to nonprofit leaders, curation is the fastest way to extend your voice and influence industry conversations.

Build real influence

Weigh in on the news in your industry and build lasting topic authority. Every curated article strengthens your byline and your brand.

Earn search visibility

Curated articles align with Google's E-E-A-T guidelines and regularly earn Page 1 placements - appearing alongside major news outlets.

Minutes, not hours

Beta curators produced 4-5 polished articles a day in about 15 minutes. Professional-grade content curation as a high-reward background task.

Credibility built in

Pure AI content can't deliver authenticity. Our human-in-the-middle model keeps a real expert - you - behind every article.
