Blog post from Stream
Dubsmash is a social platform that enables users to share videos by dubbing over audio clips from various media, emphasizing creator-focused features and diversity. Unlike its main competitor TikTok, Dubsmash minimizes content censorship, allowing a wider range of users to gain exposure. The platform has captured 27% of the U.S. short-form video market and utilizes a robust infrastructure primarily hosted on Heroku and AWS, with significant reliance on third-party services such as Algolia for search and Stream for feeds. Dubsmash employs Python, Swift, and Kotlin for its development and uses Docker to simplify its infrastructure management. Committed to enhancing the creator experience, Dubsmash plans to expand its tools and personalization features while maintaining a fun and inclusive environment for both creators and consumers.
