Acquire Media used advanced technology to deliver text and multimedia news with guaranteed reliability, in formats that made content instantly usable and searchable.
Built for people who depend on the news
The company served the news, digital publishing, and financial services communities. Those customers depended on the speed of the delivery service, its reliability, support that answered around the clock, and the ability to handle many formats and delivery options.
Its specialty was news and other time-sensitive content. Acquire Media acquired it from publishers and distributed it to corporate servers, websites, and end users with near-zero latency and pinpoint filtering.
From world-known publishers to a single tweet
Syndication and delivery customers included widely recognized news sources, industry publications, and news and content sites from around the world. The service also carried blogs, websites, regulatory filings, and social posts. By the company’s own count that added up to more than 400,000 articles a day.
Every article was enhanced with a detailed taxonomy, so that a reader or an application could ask for the information it needed and receive it when it mattered.
What we do today
We distribute press releases. You submit your release once, we send it instantly to more than 5,000 news outlets, and you receive a report showing where it ran. Prices start at $5.
Through our partners, we also syndicate news on selected Vox Media properties and across a network of thousands of exclusive outlets, and offer video distribution and syndication through Brightcove.
