The technology behind
Before this video chat app development started, we evaluated three different video broadcasting technologies: Twilio, WebRTC, and Mediasoup. Eventually, Mediasoup became the core technology until the initial release. It supports higher loads of users who use the application simultaneously.
As the technology is new, our team had to create new features in order to customize it and maximize its effectiveness.
First steps
In the very beginning, the concept of Parta existed as a web platform though the focus was moved to a mobile application. The reason is the incredible popularity of apps like Instagram, TikTok, and Clubhouse.
1
Business analytics
Our business analysts chose industry needs, and converted them into a business model.
2
Development process
We developed a video chat app MVP with use of relatively new technologies.
3
The first launch
We met deadlines: the client had a soft launch and the app got appraisal from users.
The team
The team behind the project faced numerous challenges. We had to conduct market and business analysis in order to find out how the final product should fit the market. Creating a social network app has to require modern standards in order to be competitive, viral, and meaningful.
We analyzed potential users’ needs, collected all the industry benchmarks and kicked off the development. We also had to pay a lot of attention to UX design. We put usability on the first place and kept minimalistic yet easy to use design to make the user experience enjoyable and fun.

Considerable achievements
As the platform itself requires a lot of customization and high load testing, we’ve faced multiple challenges.
Fast development
The application itself is complicated. Such apps require a team of over 20 specialists. Our team of 5 specialists managed to deliver an MVP in three months, and the product in seven months.
New Technologies
Mediasoup and React Native are new technologies with a few documentations. The development required testing numerous hypotheses, building logic or external integrations.
Successful launch
The solution development was dedicated to the launch of an online event. Our team aced the whole process and provided the client with the working competitive app.
Creating a social networking app requires huge teams and months of development. We aced app development in 7 months with a small team which is an amazing result.
