Submission desk

File the release. The package decision comes after it clears.

You do not pay to have the copy read. You pay when you choose distribution, and only for the outlets in that package.

Write it on ARC

Use the editor for the full text, images, and up to five source links. The release lives on your newsroom at a permanent address whether or not you buy distribution.

Open the editor

Point at one that already ran

If the announcement is already public on another wire or on your own site, submit that URL. ARC lists it, summarizes it, and links back to the original. This does not buy distribution.

Submit a URL

What the desk sends back

  • Releases with no identifiable organization in the headline.
  • Copy written in the first person, outside of a direct quote.
  • Anything under 250 words or over 2,000, and summaries over 160 characters.
  • Releases missing a phone number and an email in the contact block.

The complete exclusion list, including subjects ARC will not distribute at all, is on the editorial guidelines page.
