AI PR Agency

Own the AI Conversation. Build Credibility Where It Counts.

Artificial Intelligence is rewriting the rules of business. But behind every AI breakthrough lies a trust gap—and high expectations from regulators, media, customers, and your own employees.

At Actual Agency, we help companies leading the AI revolution earn the one thing they can’t fake: credibility.

Whether you’re launching a GenAI product, addressing concerns around ethics and bias, or preparing for your next funding round, the message is clear: trust is not a given. It’s earned.

That’s where we come in.

We specialize in PR strategies that turn risk into opportunity, delivering clear, compelling narratives backed by third-party validation from the journalists, analysts, and thought leaders who shape perception.

AI moves fast. So does reputational fallout. We help you stay ahead of both.

If you’re deploying AI and need your story told with strength, substance, and strategic clarity—let’s talk.

7 AI-Related Risks to Corporate Reputation:

1. Cybersecurity Threats

Risk of sensitive customer data or proprietary information being compromised.

2. Opacity of AI Models

Lack of transparency about how AI functions can erode trust between  companies and stakeholders.

3. Ethical Concerns

The risks associated with embedded racial, gender, and ethnic biases within AI systems.

4. Disinformation

Reputational impact of AI systems that mislead the public can tarnish reputations.

5. Workplace Impact

Employees are voicing concerns about how AI will reshape job roles and organizational structures.

6. AI-Induced Crises

AI systems gone wild will require swift, strategic responses from humans to minimize damage.

7. Misuse of AI

Humans’ misuse of AI systems will also require rapid response (from humans) to solve issues and quell crises.

That means:

  • Narratives grounded in insight, not jargon
  • Commentary that’s timely, informed, and fearless
  • Media relationships that go beyond the wire
  • Crisis readiness built into every communications plan

We bring deep knowledge of the AI ecosystem and strong connections across tech, business, and policy press. We know how to translate complexity into clarity—and put your team on the front foot.
