Discuzz

Discuzz Network is the world's first video chat platform integrated into the Web3 space, offering enhanced usability, data protection, and advanced functionality.

I led the Discuzz Network project from concept to successful acquisition, overseeing the full lifecycle — from product strategy and design to development and launch. The platform was built as a suite of interconnected tools for modern communication and professional networking, combining real-time video, social discovery, and Web3 technologies. The system was divided into three purpose-driven products, each tailored to distinct user needs but united by a consistent design system and scalable architecture:

1) Discuzz Video – A smooth, real-time video conferencing platform optimized for browser-based group calls. Key focus areas included low-latency streaming, cross-device compatibility, and intuitive UI for frictionless meetings.

2) Discuzz FindMe – A hybrid concept inspired by LinkedIn and Reddit, designed for professional discovery and social engagement. It allowed users to build profiles, share content, and network based on interests or industry — with community-driven features like upvotes, categories, and threaded discussions.

3) Discuzz Web3 – A crypto-native extension that enabled users to connect their crypto wallets and transfer project-related tokens securely. This functionality laid the foundation for incentivized participation and DAO-like collaboration within the network.

The platform was built to scale quickly and adapt to market feedback. Within just seven months, the product reached a point where it attracted acquisition interest — and was successfully sold. Throughout the process, I was responsible for technical leadership, UI/UX design, front-end and back-end development, and team coordination. The MVP launches for alpha testing in December 2024, in partnership with Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and 500 testers.
