The Problem

Modern distributed teams are drowning in tool complexity. Founders switch between 7-9 different apps daily just to manage work—Asana for tasks, Slack for communication, Wise for payments, Google Drive for files, Calendly for meetings.

The result? Cognitive overload, decision fatigue, and founders becoming bottlenecks in their own businesses. Workers switch apps 1,200 times per day (every 40 seconds), costing companies $2.5M per 1,000 employees annually.

⏰ Time Drain

Founders spend 4-6 hours weekly just processing payments and answering payment questions

🔗 Context Switching

96% of workers report feeling overwhelmed by tool sprawl and constant app switching

💸 Payment Delays

58% of freelancers wait 30+ days for payment, $15B lost annually to delays

🔒 Single Point of Failure

Every decision, payment, and approval waits for you. The business stops when you do.

This is why we built Zinexa — a freedom machine that lets you manage your entire distributed team from one chat app, with AI handling coordination and payments settling in 1 second.

The Solution

Zinexa consolidates project management, communication, payments, and team analytics into the chat apps you already use. No new tools to learn. No context switching. Just natural language commands in Telegram, Slack, or Discord.
