Got questions?
We've got answers.
“The content solution I’ve always dreamed of?” Yeah, we’d have a few questions too if we were you. So, go on, and do your due diligence with our FAQs.
CAN’t i JUST hire in house?
Yes, of course, if you’ve got the skill, talent, time and resources, in-house is awesome. We just know that hiring a top-tier senior copywriter in SA costs upwards of R60k a month and if you add bonuses, perks etc. your total cost goes up to R100k easily.
And then you have to know that most SA copywriters come from the media and advertising space, meaning they’ve only ever worked with corporates, never built their own business and just generally have no clue what it’s like in the tech and startup space – or how it functions.
We don’t want to see your training bill (or opportunity costs due to delays, for that matter).
Our team, on the other hand, are fully vetted startup and tech copy pros from within the ecosystem. And you can start, pause and cancel anytime – bargain!
what about using freelancers?
Same problem – the good SA ones have stables of established international clients, so you’re bidding against guys paying in dollars and euros. And then you don’t even want to know how long it takes to find, vet and engage a single writer with actual startup & tech expertise.
Our team is ready to go right now – get going in 5 minutes.
is there a content limit?
Once you’re subscribed you get to load up as many content requests as you’d like. On the Basic Plan, you can queue 10 priority content slots at a time, and as soon as one’s completed, you just keep adding so you always have 10 in the queue.
On the Professional Plan, you can queue 20 slots at a time, and again, as they’re completed you just slot in new ones so you have a continuous pipeline of 20 content pieces in the queue.
who are my writers
The best in startup and tech. End of story.The team behind Stream are all 20 years plus in content, startup and tech space – you know us already, we’re the guys behind SA’s fastest-growing startup newsletter and community, The Open Letter.
We have our established network of niche SA writers and we are constantly sourcing and adding new top-tier creators through our super-strict vetting process.
can you help me with content strategy?
Of course! For starters, we throw in a complimentary strategy session when you sign up for any tier. And then you can book additional strategy sessions with our senior team at any time
what is the turnaround time on each piece of content?
You’ll get your top-priority content piece delivered to you in 48 hours (2 business days). And if it’s all good to go, great! But if you need changes you request them and we shift them back to number one in your content queue and you get it all wrapped up in a bow in another 48 hours.
What if i need changes made?
No problem – you have unlimited revisions! You just leave us a note with what you want and we do it. Just note: Revisions are cycled back to the top of your content queue and delivered in 48 hours, so keep the rest of your queue in mind and make your feedback as detailed as possible so we can get it just the way you want it as fast as possible.
how do i request content?
It’s super easy. You have your own private content dashboard, where you can just start adding as many content ideas and briefs as you like, using our templates. Then, when you’re ready to start requesting, you just label the first piece of content you want as number 1 in your queue, the second as number 2 and so on – you’ll get a personal demo of how to work the dashboard in onboarding.
what if i only have 1 piece of content?
All good by us. You simply queue it up, receive and, once you’re happy with it, hit pause on your subscription until you’re ready to brief in some more content again.
can i really pause and restart it?
Jip. We know things happen – sometimes you have a crazy month and you fall behind on content requests. No problem, Stream is super-flexible – you just hit pause when you need to, come back when you’re ready and take up where we left off.

One of the biggest needs in SA’s startup and tech ecosystem is strong marketing and brand content for positioning, and the traditional media industry just doesn’t have the nuanced expertise available. So Stream offers industry-specific content done for you by industry pros with an unlimited easy, pause-whenever content pipeline – it couldn’t be simpler.
I’ve spent my whole life working in the media and agencies, and I can’t imagine a better solution to build your personal, executive or company brand in the SA tech and startup space than this. You don’t have to muck around with employment issues, training or sourcing and vetting freelancers – in fact, even if I already have an internal content division, I’d use Stream to multiply what they do before I hire again.
Don't take our word for it, see what our customers say
We’ve helped numerous startups, suppliers, VCs and programmes achieve massive success in every startup and tech niche you can imagine.
“Ideal for the tech space”
Our last channel assessment showed most of our quality inbound leads come in through organic content, so we needed a fast, flexible and most importantly tech-savvy content marketing solution. Stream ticks all the boxes – highly recommended when building/growing a tech brand in Africa.
“One less thing to worry about”
Staying the country’s fastest-growing virtual doctor consults platform takes a lot of graft in various spaces BUT our content brings in a lot of new eyes and business – so glad I have Stream to take care of that so that my team and I can focus on what we’re good at.
“A dream come true for CTOs”
As a technical founder, finding the right words and messaging to build your brand and actually convert customers and partners is super draining and wasteful of your time. Stream helps me tell the right stories to raise eyebrows and make an impact, without me having to worry about it.
“Highly flexible and nuanced”
Building a platform for kids and parents, you have to live in two worlds – the high-growth tech space, but with a brand that’s all about consciousness, support and care. Stream helps us speak the right language to attract and engage our target audience while still being able to grow.
