AI in PR: The Paradox is Real. You think your peers are using AI more than you are and the data proves it.

The inaugural PRWeek/Boston University AI in PR Survey reveals a critical gap: Comms pros are highly receptive to AI, but their actual, day-to-day usage remains very limited (Mean=2.80).

Why the disconnect?

The challenge isn't enthusiasm โ€” it's organizational readiness.

We surveyed 719 agency and in-house professionals to pinpoint the exact roadblocks, from infrastructure gaps to leadership voids.

What the Premium Report Covers:

- Benchmarking: Who's ahead โ€” in-house or agency?
- Infrastructure: Where exactly are organizations failing to support adoption?
- Strategy: How CCOs at firms like JPMorganChase are implementing guardrails.

Stop relying on perception. Base your 2026 strategy on proprietary data.

The era of massive PR salary jumps might be over. ๐Ÿ“‰

For years, the PR industry has seen strong wage growth, but the 2025 PRWeek Salary Survey reveals a sharp reality check. After an 8.1% jump in 2023 and 5.0% in 2024, the median salary increase for PR pros has slowed to just 1.6% this year. The "Great Resignation" has officially shifted to a focus on stability. In fact, 46% of respondents say they would now consider reduced or equal pay in exchange for better job security.

Are we seeing a market correction or a new normal? We dive into the numbers, the impact of AI on billable hours and the changing priorities regarding DEI in our comprehensive 60-page report.
