Almost. Our members live and work in 180+ countries, from capital cities to places you would struggle to find on a map. If a story can happen there, the chances are someone nearby can cover it. And if we don't have the right person, tell us. The network grows around demand.
Only verified professionals can join our network. Our editorial team reviews every profile manually, checking published work and credentials before it goes live.
Searching is free and instant, and you message journalists directly. No middlemen, no callbacks. A booking for breaking news can come together the same day.
Searching the network costs nothing. On bookings we charge a commission, and organisations that work with journalists regularly can move to a subscription. Get in touch and we will find the right fit.
We do. One agreement with us covers every journalist you book. Contracts, tax forms, insurance and currency are handled for you in 180+ countries, and you receive a single invoice.
Every booking includes insurance, and payment is held by us until the work is delivered. We have connected organisations with journalists since 2015, with over 100,000 jobs booked, so both sides always know where they stand.
