Detailed Review
Vuelio covers the usual PR suite and adds political tooling: a political database and political monitoring for public affairs teams. The vendor says its technology is used by more than 3,500 organisations.
Its privacy policy states that Pulsar Group Plc, formerly Access Intelligence Plc, and its subsidiaries operate the Pulsar, Isentia, ResponseSource and Vuelio brands. The contact page gives Northburgh House, 10 Northburgh Street, London.
Modules You Add as Needed
Vuelio describes itself as modular, so you pay only for the parts you use: media monitoring across online, social, print and broadcast, a media database with media and social contacts and blogger outreach, news distribution, an online newsroom, media analytics and stakeholder management.
There is also a press office management area and a journalist enquiry service, plus Lumina, an AI assistant for PR and communications.
Public Affairs Tools
The political database and political monitoring modules are aimed at teams that track MPs and policy debate. That is a differentiator against PR tools that stop at journalists.
Group and Security
Vuelio is part of Pulsar Group, together with ResponseSource and Pulsar, and the group states that Access Intelligence Group including Vuelio holds ISO/IEC 27001 certification.
Limitations to Consider
Pricing is by quote only and modular, so a complete setup can cost more than the entry module suggests. The political tools are UK-centred. The data-hosting region is not stated on the pages checked. Vuelio is part of a larger group that also owns the Pulsar social listening product already on this site, so it is not an independent company. For smaller budgets see Pressat or Prezly.
Who Should Use Vuelio
UK communications and public affairs teams that want media, social and political monitoring plus a media database from one supplier.
