Co-branded social proof. Not earned media.
A "we got vetted" announcement rarely earns press pickup on its own. So we don't sell it as press. The real value is a third-party credibility artifact you own and amplify, a backlink from a directory built to be indexed, and visibility inside AI search where buyers increasingly start.
Every release links the claim to the live verification page. The page is the source of truth; the release is just the announcement. If status changes, the page reflects it. The badge can't outlive its vetting.
Three honest uses. Zero promises of press coverage.
An artifact you own
A dated, third-party-validated statement you can put on your site, in proposals, and in LinkedIn posts. It survives the news cycle because it was never a news story.
Backlinks + SEO
A directory listing and wire release create durable backlinks from a domain whose entire purpose is vetted-agency content. The link equity compounds.
AI-search visibility
Buyers increasingly start with ChatGPT and Perplexity, which lean on directories and press to decide who's credible. Being indexed where the models look is the surface that matters now.

No press coverage.

Trade-press features
A vetting announcement is not a news story. We will not pitch reporters on your behalf and we will not imply we can.
Guaranteed pickup
Wire distribution puts your release in the syndication pool. Re-publication by other outlets is incidental, not guaranteed, and not what you're paying for.
Award framing
The badge is not an award. The release uses rubric language. Passed an N-point vetting across security, references, and delivery. Not 'top 10' marketing copy.
Frozen claims
The release links the claim to the live page. If you are suspended or revoked, we update the page; we do not chase down old releases.
The self-serve release.
Boilerplate is calibrated to the rubric. It states what was actually tested, avoids superlatives, and points the claim at your live verification page so it survives status changes.
Approved Verified agencies receive the editable copy plus the social card pack from their portal on the day the badge is issued.
