Brand-New Mobile Platform For Live Broadcasting

Utrail.me

How crafting a cutting-edge mobile platform for live broadcasting, that features seamless social media sharing for platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, allowed a German media startup to attract four million users within the first year after the product’s launch.

About the Project

Just recently, mobile devices and mobile Internet have created sufficient infrastructure for live mobile video broadcasting solutions. People who are now used to text and photos will definitely experiment in the area of video and live streaming. What exactly will come out of these experiments is not clear now…

But what is clear is that by providing a simple and reliable video streaming possibility, there is an outstanding opportunity to enter this emerging market and become a technology of choice, thus securing a pivotal position for future use success-stories. The market window is still open, although we expect that this niche will fill up quite fast, as competitors are not sleeping.

The Solution

Our company developed a mobile application that enables the basic action: “to show what is happening live.” The user shoots live video using their smartphone, and other users who follow them (e.g. on social networks) or are invited by the user, can watch his broadcast in real time or later. This can be seen as some kind of live video twitter.

This instant way of video shooting, sharing and watching in real time is extremely easy to use – now in your pocket.
