01Why You Need PR

Most founders are building incredible companies. Nobody knows.

Silence isn't humility. It's a tax — paid in lost talent, lower valuations, slower deals, and competitors who get to define the category in your absence. PR isn't vanity. It's distribution for the only asset that compounds: your story.

01Distribution for the only asset that compounds.

The best product rarely wins. It's the best-told one.

The category leader isn't who shipped first — it's who got named first. PR is how you get named.

02A headline outpriced your last pitch.

Investors price narrative, not features. Term sheets follow conviction.

Conviction follows public proof. A Bloomberg headline is worth more than a deck slide and you know it.

03Senior engineers don't read your careers page.

Talent goes where attention goes. Reputation is the new recruiter.

The senior engineer you're trying to hire reads the same five publications your competitors are already in. Fix that.

04They Google you before they meet you.

Customers buy the story, then the product. Silence is a signal.

Enterprise buyers do a CMD-F on your name in the press before the demo. Silence is a signal — usually the wrong one.

05Built for O-1 and EB-1A petitions.

Press is the fastest path to a green card. Tier-1 coverage is evidence.

O-1 and EB-1A petitions are won or lost on documented media in major outlets. Every Bloomberg, Forbes, or TechCrunch placement we land is a citation your immigration attorney can file. Founders we work with use the exact same coverage to close a Series A and to get themselves into the country.

02What Volta is

Most PR firms send emails and hope. Volta is different at the foundation.

AI-native

The intelligence, the research, the matching, the monitoring, and the execution happen automatically, continuously, and at a precision no human team can match.

Human-led

Our strategists do what only humans can do. Build real relationships. Make judgment calls. Close the moments that matter.

A firm that operates at a level previously reserved for companies spending $20,000/mo.

Starting at $199.

SYSThe live system

Not AI-assisted. Not AI-first. AI-native.

Volta runs on a multi-agent AI system where a Master Orchestrator sits at the top, reads your company, sets the strategy, and coordinates every agent below it in real time. Intelligence feeds execution. Execution feeds credibility. Credibility compounds forever.

Output

Coverage. Category position. An opinion the industry can't ignore.

Intelligence feeds execution. Execution feeds credibility. Credibility compounds forever.

03The promise nobody else will make

Tier-1 placement in 30 days.
Or we refund your first month.

WSJTechCrunchBloombergForbesThe Information

No PR firm on earth makes this promise. We do. Because we have the system to back it up.

04What you actually get

Not features. Outcomes.

Outcome 01 / 06
Default name
Category

You become the default answer.

When a journalist covers your space they call you first. When a VC asks who's winning your market your name is the answer. When a customer searches for solutions, your story is the one that stays with them.

05The seven directions

Most PR firms build in one direction. Toward journalists. That's it.

Volta builds in seven simultaneously.

Direction 01 / 07
01
02
03
04
05
06
07

Toward Capital

Investors already know your name before you reach out. Your fundraise starts twelve months early — without you sending a single email.

Toward Capital. Active 01 of 07. The other six are still running in the background — they don't pause when one is in focus.

06What makes Volta different

Five things every other firm can't do.

01

We show up with work already done.

Before we reach out to a single founder we've spent two hours building their complete narrative infrastructure. Story angles. Journalist matches. Investor frame. Competitive gap. When we reach out, the message isn't 'we can help you.' It's 'we already started.'

02

We guarantee outcomes nobody else will touch.

Tier-1 placement in 30 days or your money back. No asterisk. No fine print. No legacy agency will ever match this because their unit economics won't survive the risk. Ours do.

03

We give PR to every person in the building.

Not just the founder. Every engineer. Every researcher. Every operator. Individual narrative, visibility, and brand — running automatically in parallel with their actual job.

04

We build relationships that belong to you forever.

When you leave Volta you walk away with ten journalists, three analysts, and four investors who know your name and take your calls. A network nobody can take from you.

05

We are genuinely AI-native.

Not AI-assisted. Not a human team using ChatGPT. The AI does the work. Research. Narrative construction. Journalist matching. Pitch drafting. Sentiment monitoring. Continuously, across every client, simultaneously.

07The stunt

The moment. The thing people talk about.

Some stories need more than a press release. They need a moment.

01

The open letter that reframes a category.

02

The data release that becomes the industry's most cited statistic.

03

The campaign that gets a thousand retweets and makes your company a dinner-table conversation.

04

The provocative move that forces competitors to respond — and positions you as the one setting the agenda.

Volta ideates, produces, and executes the earned-media moments that become part of your company's founding mythology. Because some of the most important PR in history wasn't a pitch. It was an event.

Case in point
Salesforce
1999 — “The End of Software”

Salesforce didn't get to a billion in revenue because of their tech. They got there because they staged “The End of Software” — protests outside conferences, mock funeral processions, a category-redefining campaign that turned a SaaS startup into the only conversation in enterprise software.

A stunt did that. We do that — for you.

09For the team

The most underused asset in any startup is the people building it.

Your VP of Engineering is one of the best in the world. Three people outside your building know that.

Your Head of Research has ideas that would change how your entire industry thinks. They've never been asked to share them publicly.

Your founding team collectively represents more credibility, more expertise, and more story than any PR firm has ever thought to activate. Because every firm before Volta was only thinking about the company.

We think about the people.

What founders say.

Coverage. Stunts. Narrative. Analyst, investor, talent, and category outcomes. PR isn't one thing — and these aren't one kind of story.

01 / 03

Media

We went from zero coverage to TechCrunch, Forbes, and Bloomberg in 47 days. Two inbound VC emails referenced our press before we'd even started our Series A process.

Maya O.

Co-founder & CEO at Series A AI infrastructure company

02 / 03

Stunt

Volta drafted an open letter for us that 14,000 people quoted in 72 hours. By Monday, two of our biggest competitors had issued statements responding to our framing. We set the agenda for the entire quarter.

Capital

Three of our four target lead investors mentioned a Bloomberg piece in the first ten minutes of their pitch meetings. Our round was oversubscribed in 19 days. The narrative did the work my deck couldn't.

11The question every founder should ask

Right now, a journalist is writing about your category.

A VC is asking their network who the interesting companies are.

A senior engineer is deciding which company's story is worth leaving their current job for.

A potential customer is forming an opinion about who they should trust.

Are they finding you? Or your competitor?

If you don't know the answer, that's the answer.
