Anchor in the studio correspondents in 30 seconds, from anywhere.
Field reporter on a phone, guest expert on a laptop: both join the same studio with a browser link. Screen-share charts, tweets, and articles directly into the canvas. Brand presence, lower thirds, and scoreboard bar baked in. Distribute to YouTube, Facebook, X (RTMP), and your owned platform simultaneously.
Built for the news + live shows workflow
Remote correspondents in 30 seconds
A field reporter on a phone, a guest expert on a laptop. Both join the same studio with a browser link.
Screen-share inserts
Pull up a chart, a tweet, a website, an article. Browser sources are first-class. No NDI dance.
Brand presence baked in
Lower thirds, bug, scoreboard-style score bar. Compose your news look once, reuse it every day.
Delivery we operate
When your audience scales into peak hours, the routing runs on edge software we operate, not a CDN product we resell.
Why news producers pick TRaX
Daily live shows have no time for a complex stack. TRaX is the simplest tool that still produces broadcast-grade output. One operator can run a show with three correspondents and four destinations without leaving the browser tab.
- Anchor and correspondents all in the browser: same setup, same workflow
- Multistream means the show goes everywhere your audience lives
- Cloud encoders let a daily show run for hours without thermal issues
What a daily rundown runs at
A daily show is judged on whether it started on time, not on whether it was beautiful. Everything here is chosen for repeatability at the same hour every day.
- Program canvas
- 1080p30
- An anchor desk and a remote two-shot barely move. Six megabits at the 30-class rung is the right trade for a programme that airs five days a week on whatever circuit the office happens to have.
- Correspondent join
- A link, in seconds, from wherever they are
- Somebody standing somewhere newsworthy has no time to install an encoder, and a browser tab is the only onboarding that survives being requested at eleven minutes to air.
- Field contribution
- SRT from a hardware encoder or a phone app
- Where a crew does carry a bonded encoder, SRT gets it in across a public connection and the receive buffer can be widened mid-hit if the route starts degrading.
- Branding
- Lower-thirds and the bug live on the canvas
- The scene is composed before it leaves, so the same look ships to every destination instead of depending on what each platform decides to do with your graphics.
- Destinations
- YouTube, Facebook, X and your own site
- A single encode reaches all four, which is what makes a daily show sustainable for a team that does not have one person per platform.
Programs run at 1080p as standard, and up to 1440p when every destination you have enabled can accept it — the canvas is clamped to the least capable one in the set.

What a daily show has to work around
A rundown that airs every day will meet all three of these inside a month.
HDR needs HEVC, and your destinations want H.264
An HDR program is only admitted when it is paired with HEVC, and the platforms a news operation distributes to take H.264. The practical consequence is that HDR is not available to you on this path, so grade for SDR, set the monitors accordingly and stop treating it as an open question.
No install does not mean no physics
A correspondent joining by browser link skips the software problem entirely and still arrives over whatever connection exists where they are standing. On a congested cell site they will look like it. The lever that helps is a field encoder with a deeper buffer, not anything the studio can apply to an incoming browser feed.
Four destinations is four rulebooks
One encode reaching four platforms does not merge their moderation, appeals or takedown regimes. A clip that is fine on your own site can be actioned on one platform and ignored on another, and the strike lands on that account alone. Somebody on the desk needs to own the per-platform relationship.
