Bringing clarity to cybersecurity and compliance tech
About the project
With strict regulations and rising cyber threats, it is harder than ever for small and medium-sized businesses to stay secure and compliant. Copla (formerly Cyber Upgrade) developed an AI platform that automates key cybersecurity and compliance tasks, helping companies meet standards like DORA and NIS2.
We stepped in to build trust in Copla’s approach and raise its profile through press releases and expert commentary, picked up by the likes of Business Insider and the Daily Mail. From funding news to technical thought leadership, we supported Copla as it brought clear solutions to a crowded, and confusing, cybersecurity market.

Our Approach
Messaging & Positioning
We helped Copla find a clear, confident voice on regulation and risk without oversimplifying complex details, building credibility with business and tech audiences.
Thought Leadership
We highlighted Copla’s founders and expert voices through data-driven commentary and practical advice, showing how their platform supports businesses dealing with tough regulations.
Media Relations
We tracked emerging issues and headlines so Copla could respond fast and project expertise on pressing cybersecurity issues.
Reputation Management
Addressing past misconceptions and proactively shaping public perception through transparent, data-backed storytelling.
How we tackled it
We targeted news cycles with tightly written press releases on major milestones like funding and key regulatory changes. To keep Copla top of mind as cybersecurity rules shifted, we pushed relevant commentary to business and tech journalists, balancing high-level regulatory context with actionable recommendations for SMEs.
Numbers speak for themselves
Copla came to us as an early-stage startup with a strong product but little media presence. We leveraged founder expertise, established through his earlier success in the fintech sector, to build trust and recognition in a new venture. We built Copla’s PR strategy from scratch, secured their first major placements, and turned their founders into recognized voices in the global cybersecurity conversation.
