Editors and journalists won't chase you for assets. A complete press kit at /press means the difference between a feature and a pass. Here's the 2026 essential list.
The must-have assets
- Logo pack: SVG + PNG (512px and 1024px), on transparent, plus a reversed (white) version for dark backgrounds.
- App icon: 1024px square PNG (matches store icon).
- Screenshots: 3–5 at 1280×800 (or 2732×2048 for tablet), showing the core action, a settings view, and a "wow" moment.
- Demo video: 30–90 seconds, no narration required; hosted on YouTube/Vimeo with an embeddable link and an MP4 download.
- Boilerplate: 100-word "what is [app]" paragraph journalists can paste.
- Founder bio + headshot: 50-word bio + 800px headshot (square).
- Fact sheet: founding date, team size, funding stage, key metrics, pricing, platforms.
Structure your /press page
- One-line tagline at the top.
- Download-all ZIP button (logos + screenshots).
- Embed the demo video.
- Boilerplate + fact sheet as copyable text.
- Contact email + founder socials.
- "As featured on" logos if you have any.
Common gaps
- No dark-mode logo (most blogs have dark footers).
- Screenshots with placeholder text or personal data.
- Video only on YouTube with no download (editors need raw files).
- No fact sheet (forces a back-and-forth email).
Build the kit once, host it at /press, and link it from every directory listing. It's the highest-leverage hour you'll spend on growth.
