Spreadsheets required
Today, commissioning a local journalist in Nairobi means an email chain, a WhatsApp thread, a wire transfer that takes two weeks, and a spreadsheet nobody trusts. The story gets filed. The freelancer waits.
Payment delays
Freelancers routinely wait 30–90 days for cross-border payments, often losing a significant portion to fees and FX slippage.
No verified talent layer
Newsrooms rely on word-of-mouth or cold outreach to source local professionals. There is no trusted, searchable global index.
Fragmented workflows
Communication lives across email, WhatsApp, and phone. Assignment details, deliverables, and contracts are never in one place.
Covrax replaces the fragmented stack with one coordinated platform for posting, matching, executing, and paying.
