Muck Rack is a software database for journalists and public relation offices founded in 2009 by Gregory Galant and Lee Semel.[4][5] It is free for journalists and subscription-based for public relation offices, and a news aggregator of works by registered journalist.[6]

According to Journalist Magazine, Muck Rack indexes every tweet sent by registered journalists, and if tweets contain a link to an article they have written, that article too is indexed. It also sends a daily email to registered members on what other journalists are talking about on social media.[5]
