Our take
Muck Rack was founded in 2009 as a platform for businesses to connect with journalists. As of 2022, tens of thousands of journalists have profiles on Muck Rack that are available for companies such as Google, Pfizer, and Duolingo to browse and employ writers from.
The nature of journalism has evolved since Muck Rack’s founding, with social media and digital outlets taking away market share from printed publications. As the landscape changes, Muck Rack has expanded its services to include a Public Relations Management platform.
It’s moves like this, as well as their shift to a “distributed” business (hybrid or remote), that have sparked renewed investor confidence in Muck Rack. Though the company has been bootstrapped since its founding, Muck Rack received its first outside funding of $180 million in 2022, underscoring the importance investors place on their platform.
With this substantial funding, the future is bright for Muck Rack, as it continues to roll out updates and new features to its platform. Digital content can go viral in a matter of hours, and the creators are not always journalists, meaning Muck Rack must remain agile and quick to respond.
