Delfino.CR is an independent digital media from Costa Rica, founded in 2017, dedicated to reporting with rigor, clarity and editorial curation. Its mission is to democratize information, elevate public debate and strengthen Costa Rican democracy through journalism that makes "what is important something interesting." Focused on transparency, accountability and citizen participation, Delfino.CR has established itself as a reference of credibility in the country, standing out for prioritizing quality over quantity in its content.
The medium avoids events, entertainment and football, focusing on issues that it considers priority such as politics, environment, human rights, economy, health and society. It has a wide range of curated content on various channels such as "Hoy" (breaking news), "Súper" (good news), "Cultura Colectiva" (cultural events), "Curul en Llamas" (legislative podcast) and the "Reporte Delfino" (daily news summary), among others. Its editorial model combines an analytical approach with accessible and entertaining storytelling, attracting an informed and engaged audience.
Delfino.CR has been recognized as the most credible media in Costa Rica according to a study by Innovation Media Consulting in 2022. In 2019, it received the Pío Víquez National Journalism Award and was included in the report "El Hormiguero II" for its social impact, highlighting achievements such as the elimination of the secret vote in the Legislative Assembly. The Gabo Foundation and Google News Initiative have highlighted it as a media outlet that stands out for its editorial independence.
Operated by a small but committed team, Delfino.CR always faces the challenge of achieving financial sustainability while maintaining its independence and seeking to expand its impact nationwide, especially in rural areas. With a loyal and growing audience, Delfino.CR continues to establish itself as a medium that informs, inspires and encourages critical thinking in Costa Rica.
