For journalists
Storyline Pros represents a limited number of high-growth tech companies each quarter. Every client clears our vetting bar before we pitch you. For interviews, briefs, or fact checks, contact Cynthia directly.
If a story isn't ready, we'll tell you.
Co-Founder, Media Relations
Cynthia Salarizadeh has spent 20+ years running media relations for Fortune 500 companies and venture-backed startups, plus government communications work. She is an exited tech founder and personally handles every press request for Storyline Pros clients.
Storyline Pros is founder-led. Cynthia and Nik Vassev run all client work with a specialist bench for writing, media relations and AI visibility.
We take a limited number of companies each quarter. Before we pitch a newsroom, the company has to clear a simple bar:
Companies that fall short of this bar don't become clients. Client names stay confidential until they approve a named mention.
When you are covering a client (or evaluating a pitch), we can usually supply:
| Asset | Notes |
|---|---|
| One-page brief | Category, product in plain language, why now, suggested angles, and what we are not claiming. |
| Founder / executive access | On-the-record interviews, timed when useful. Off-record background only when you ask for it and we agree in writing. |
| Data and primary material | Charts, studies, product demos, or filings the company can stand behind. We label preliminary vs published. |
| Embargoes | Honored when you request them and the company agrees. We do not invent embargo theater for soft news. |
| B-roll / stills / bios | When available and cleared. |
| Follow-up fact check | Written clarifications on request before publish. |
Our commitments to you:
Typical fit: AI, biotech, fintech, cleantech, and adjacent B2B tech. Clinical-stage science and other deep-tech stories appear when the facts are solid. Exact active clients stay confidential unless they have approved a named mention or you already have the relationship.
For category-level descriptions of past work shapes (without a logo wall), see case studies.
Ask hard questions about the company, the data, and our role. We would rather lose a weak pitch than burn a newsroom relationship. Email Cynthia when you need access or a brief on a client we represent.
