Qissa is quickly becoming a well-renowned platform for citizens reporting the incidents they witness every day. Qissa hopes to arm citizens with the power of reporting so that they may be able to take charge of the news themselves, especially during these times of fake news that is quickly made mainstream.

Qissa is a relatively new platform and its mission is to be the CCTV of the world so that no incident goes unreported and that there is always a video evidence of any incident. Qissa hopes to bring freelance journalism to Pakistan in a more organized and credible manner. We cannot avoid the media presence around us but we can however make it more authentic. They hope to not only decentralize and democratize journalism but they also aim to bring a balance of power between citizens, journalists and publishing houses.

In doing so, Qissa as a startup hopes to empower and encourage the widespread journalism of everyday events that may require much more attention.

So why should you choose to use Qissa?

In the modern world, along with Photoshop and similar softwares it is easy to make news seem authentic; it leads to a biased widespread of news that is a lie.  Centralized media houses and social media shape your thoughts and the content you choose to indulge in. However, now that Qissa has entered the game as an innovator it will surely make a difference.

Qissa provides its users with an independent video-news platform. They can shoot a video of an event, upload onto our platform. Furthermore, you can even get paid for your contributions.
