Not every pitch you receive will be relevant. Qwoted gives you a way to report spammy or inappropriate pitches so that the network stays authentic and useful for all users.
Why This Matters
Qwoted is a two-sided network, connecting media with experts and helping experts earn top-tier coverage. While we do our best to ensure that every account is authentic, not all users follow community guidelines. The reporting feature helps keep the platform free from spam and irrelevant noise.
How to Report a Pitch
Your pitch inbox has two views: Table View and Inbox View. You can switch between them using the toggle at the top right of your inbox.
Here's how to report a pitch from each.
Table View
Find the pitch you'd like to report
Click the three dots (...) at the top right of the pitch card
Select Report pitch from the dropdown. You'll also see the option to Mute the source here if you'd prefer to stop seeing their pitches without reporting
Inbox View
Open the pitch conversation
Click the three dots (...) at the top right of the message
Select Report pitch from the dropdown. The Mute option is also available here
Filling Out the Report Form
Once you click Report pitch in either view, a form will appear titled Report this pitch anonymously.
Here's what to do:
Select all reasons that apply:
Requested payment
AI generated
Plagiarized information
Source not qualified

Add more detail in the text box under Please elaborate on your concerns
Click Report to submit
Once submitted, the Qwoted team will review your report and take corrective action if needed to ensure accounts follow guidelines.
By flagging irrelevant pitches, you’re helping reduce noise on the platform and elevate authentic voices, making it easier for journalists to find the right sources and for experts to share meaningful commentary.
