Treble PR Alternatives: 7 B2B Tech PR Agencies to Compare in 2026

Full disclosure: this guide is written by Joseph Tannous, founder of Jamco PR, which is one of the alternatives below. Treble is a respected agency, so we've tried to be fair about when it's the right choice and when another model fits better.

What Treble does well

Founded in Austin in 2013, Treble is a PR agency for B2B venture-backed startups and venture capital firms, with offices in Austin, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Chicago. It says it has helped 33 startups to exit since 2013, including CoreWeave's IPO, and has practice groups in enterprise technology, cybersecurity, and AI and hardtech.

Treble is a strong choice for venture-backed companies with a steady flow of news: funding rounds, launches and exits.

Why companies look for Treble alternatives

• They want guaranteed placements instead of a monthly program.
• They need coverage fast, for a funding round, launch or sales push in the next few weeks.
• They're an established company rather than venture-backed.
• They want a specialist in one sector, such as B2B SaaS.

The shortlist at a glance

1. Jamco PR: best if you want guaranteed results instead of a retainer

Jamco PR gets B2B tech companies and their executives on Business Insider, USA Today, Yahoo Finance, AP News, Benzinga, Investing.com and 35+ other publications. Placements are guaranteed: if one doesn't go live within 60 days, it's replaced with another top-tier outlet at no extra cost. The first placement can be live in as little as 24 hours, and most clients see their first article within 14 days.

Example: KinoSec, an AI security company, got on Business Insider and 3 other outlets in 16 days, then closed a $1M pre-seed round two weeks later.

Choose Treble or another retainer agency instead if you want an ongoing team for media relations, analyst relations and thought leadership month after month.

Crackle PR, led by founder and CEO Parry Headrick, is a fully remote, US-based team of senior strategists, with offices listed in the Boston area and San Francisco.

Highwire was founded in San Francisco in 2008 and has offices in New York, Boston and Chicago. It works mainly with technology companies, including enterprise and B2B tech, AI, cybersecurity and financial services.

Good fit for B2B tech companies that want one integrated agency for PR and marketing.

Retainer or guaranteed placements?

Retainer agencies like Treble charge monthly for an ongoing program: strategy, pitching and relationships. Results depend on your news flow and the media cycle.

Guaranteed-placement models like Jamco PR's charge for agreed outcomes on specific publications. You get certainty and speed, but less of the ongoing advisory work a retainer includes. Many companies use a guaranteed push first, then add a retainer once they have steady news.
