Automated Meltwater Media Mention Digest

Every morning, WebRun opens Meltwater, reviews new media and social mentions of your brand since yesterday, logs anything notable or negative as a Trello card for PR follow up, and alerts your team on WhatsApp with the overall mention count and tone.

In short

How do I stay on top of daily media and social mentions?

WebRun checks Meltwater every morning for new media and social mentions of your brand, logs anything notable or negative as a Trello card for PR follow up, and alerts your team on WhatsApp with the day's mention count and tone. It never responds to press itself, leaving outreach to your PR team.

  • Negative or high reach mentions get flagged the same morning
  • PR follow ups are logged in one Trello queue instead of scattered notes
  • The team gets a daily tone read without opening Meltwater by hand

Questions, answered

Does WebRun respond to press or journalists?

No. It only reads and logs mentions. Any outreach to press or a public response is always handled by your PR team.

What counts as notable?

High reach coverage or anything with a negative tone gets logged as a Trello card first, ahead of routine mentions.

Does it cover social mentions or just news coverage?

Both. It reads media coverage and social mentions together, so nothing gets missed because it's on a different channel.

Put this on autopilot.
