Raketech will request Services on the Platform that are presented in the form of “Tickets” which contain a list of work “Tasks” for the Users to complete. The Services will be performed by a suitable Freelancer according to topic, language and Content Writer’s level.

Users can accrue account level points based on the quality of their performance and reputation.
“Editors” are multiple individuals appointed by Content Career who are responsible for creating job tickets consisting of one or several tasks. Additionally, Editors are entitled to review, edit, approve, provide feedback, and request changes to the Services completed by the Freelancers.
“Work Stations” are features within the Platform which provide the appropriate tools for Freelancers to perform the requested Services.
