PR Newswire

NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Actual Agency today announced the launch of The LLM-Native Press Release, the first open source template designed to help companies maximize the discoverability of their announcements in a world dominated by large language models (LLMs) and generative AI search.

Designed to help companies maximize the discoverability of announcements in a world dominated by LLMs and Gen AI search.

The template bridges traditional PR best practices with modern optimization techniques for machine parsing, ensuring that corporate news is not only journalist-friendly but also easily surfaced, summarized, and cited by AI-powered platforms.

"Press releases are no longer written only for journalists. They are also written for algorithms that decide whether your story is surfaced at all," said Michael Young, Founder and CEO of Actual Agency. "This template gives communications teams a blueprint to ensure their news gets discovered, interpreted, and amplified by both people and machines."

Key Features of the Template

  • Structured Formatting: Clear headlines, subheadlines, and "Five Ws" introductions optimized for LLM parsing.
  • Logical Hierarchy: Headings, bullet points, and snippet-friendly content for generative AI summaries.
  • FAQ Section: Built-in support for natural language queries AI systems are likely to field.
  • Schema Markup: Integration of schema.org's NewsArticle JSON-LD for machine-readable authority.
  • Multimedia Optimization: Alt text, transcripts, and metadata to boost accessibility and AI interpretability.
  • Distribution Strategy: Guidance for publishing across authoritative channels to maximize LLM "trust."

The resource is available free of charge as an open source tool, empowering communicators, marketers, and founders to elevate their corporate storytelling as search and discovery shift toward AI-first interfaces.
