Social Livestream PlatformDevelopment at Scale

This is a next-generation livestream platform designed to let anyone share their passions instantly with a global audience. Built as both an entertainment hub and a social network, it enables real-time interaction through voice chat, comments, and creative visual tools. The platform also supports a secure monetization model, helping streamers grow their fanbase while turning engagement into income.

About the project

We partnered with a Japanese entertainment brand to create a scalable social livestream platform that combines real-time video, voice interaction, and integrated monetization.

Leveraging microservices architecture and responsive cross-platform design, our team delivered a seamless experience across mobile and web, ready to support high user volumes and diverse creative communities.

Approach & Strategy

From the outset, our focus was on creating an interactive, high-performance platform capable of handling live engagement at scale.

We designed the architecture to support continuous streaming, low-latency voice chat, and cross-platform synchronization, while ensuring the UI/UX remained intuitive for both creators and viewers.

Product Core Features

Real-Time Livestreaming

Creators can broadcast live video instantly from mobile or web, with stable performance for both short and long sessions. The system ensures low latency and high-quality streams, even during peak usage.

Interactive Audience Engagement

Integrated voice chat, live comments, and the Dual-Live feature allow viewers to interact directly with streamers, fostering a vibrant and collaborative community experience.

Creative & Personalization Tools

Streamers can enhance their broadcasts with unique facial filters, stickers, and visual effects, helping them express their style and attract more followers.

Monetization & Ecosystem Integration

A built-in gifting and rewards system lets creators earn income from their audience. Users can also sync accounts and transfer points from the Up-T ecosystem for seamless in-app purchases.

Our Challenges

Designing an entirely new livestream social platform without existing market references required a ground-up approach to UI/UX and feature planning. Integrating with legacy systems introduced technical constraints, including device performance issues during extended streams. The microservices setup also demanded precise coordination in deployment due to inter-service dependencies.

Our Solutions

Our solution combined robust web and mobile development with a modern tech stack, leveraging JavaScript, Swift, and Kotlin alongside frameworks like MoleculerJS, NextJS, and ReactJS. Supported by efficient project management tools such as Git, JIRA, and Google Sheets, we delivered practical, reliable implementations that addressed the project’s technical challenges with precision.
