Phase 1 of our video-first social network is live and stable; users can already record, upload, and share short-form videos. It is now time to grow the platform through two consecutive milestones. Phase 2 focuses on premium live streaming. I need the full stack that allows creators to go live from web and mobile, broadcast in real time, and receive donations or tips while on air. An integrated payment gateway—Stripe or PayPal—is the preferred route, so the viewer never leaves the stream to complete a contribution. Please architect the feature set to include scalable ingest servers, adaptive bitrate delivery, real-time chat, on-screen like animations, and a transparent revenue split dashboard for creators. Phase 3 will introduce an e-commerce layer so that those same creators can list physical or digital products, showcase them during a live session, and complete checkout without friction. Think live-shopping meets social video. Deliverables • Functional live-stream module with creator dashboard • Donation/tip flow tied to Stripe/PayPal, including webhook handling and payout logic • Admin tools for monitoring streams, transactions, and user reports • Technical documentation and API endpoints ready for our mobile team • Initial blueprint for the phase 3 e-commerce add-on (database schema, user flows, and integration points) I value clean, documented code, security best practices, and a roadmap that can move quickly from proof of concept to production. If you can demonstrate previous work in WebRTC, HLS, or similar streaming protocols—and have experience wiring Stripe or PayPal into creator platforms—let’s talk timelines and milestones.

Hello — I would build Phase 2 as a separate live module around WebRTC ingest and ABR HLS playback, not bolt tips onto the current short-video flow. That keeps mobile APIs clean while Stripe or PayPal webhooks handle donations, revenue split records, and creator balances without leaving the stream. - Backend: NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis, auth roles for creators, viewers, admins. - Frontend: React SPA dashboard for live control, chat, tips, and reports. - Core modules: ingest/playback, real-time chat/likes, payments, admin moderation. - Deployment: containerized media and API services with CDN-backed HLS delivery. I would start with an MVP path for one gateway and one payout model, then map Phase 3 products, carts, checkout, and live product pins into the same schema. Is the current backend Node-based or another stack? Roman

Your Phase 2 is no longer about “adding a feature” — it’s about making live streaming reliable enough that creators can trust it with their audience and money. The risky parts here are latency, payment/webhook reliability, and keeping the viewer inside the stream while tips, chat, and reactions happen in real time. I’d approach it by locking the streaming architecture first, then building the donation flow and creator/admin dashboards around that core. I’ve worked on custom platform features where real-time delivery, payments, and mobile-ready APIs all had to work together cleanly. For a build like this, experience with WebRTC/HLS decisions, webhook handling, payout logic, and scalable backend structure matters much more than just shipping screens. A small plus from my side is that I can also structure the Phase 3 blueprint so your mobile team is not blocked later. - Is your current backend/framework already fixed, or are you open to recommendations for the streaming service layer? - Do you want native WebRTC for ultra-low latency, or would low-latency HLS be acceptable for the first production release? - For creator payouts, should revenue split happen automatically per transaction or through a scheduled balance/payout model?

Hi, Live shopping only works when the stream and the cart are the same experience. If a viewer has to leave the stream to buy, you lose most of them in that one step. So the checkout has to happen inside the stream, and the stock has to update live or you oversell. First we agree the flow: how a stream starts, how products are pinned during it, what the buyer sees when they tap to buy, and how stock and orders reconcile with the store you already have. Then the build: the store side in WordPress and WooCommerce with PHP and MySQL, the live layer with a streaming provider wired in through their API, in stream product cards and checkout in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, live chat with moderation, and real time inventory so the same item cannot sell twice. Then testing with a real stream end to end, on desktop and phone, under load, before you go live in front of an audience. Payment in stages: flow approved, store and streaming built, checkout and inventory tested, launch. Could we have a short call before you award? Tell me a time. Salma

Hi, We built a fundraising and social platform where creators run campaigns and take donations through both Stripe and PayPal, with webhook handling and payouts wired in for over 700,000 supporters. That donation-during-a-live-moment flow is close to your tip-on-air feature. iSupportCause: fundraising with Stripe and PayPal donations One early decision matters: for real-time ingest and adaptive bitrate, do you want to self-host WebRTC to HLS on your own servers, or route through a managed provider like LiveKit or Mux? That choice sets both cost and how fast Phase 2 reaches production, and it shapes the chat and like-animation layer over sockets. I have shipped a streaming service in HD and 4K across devices too. PliusTV: HD and 4K multi-device streaming Since there is no history between us yet, we can put Phase 2 on its own milestone so you only release on a working live-stream module. Which payment gateway do you want live first, Stripe or PayPal? Adil

I can take this from scope to a tested handoff without bloating the first milestone. For a Live Streaming & E-Commerce Expansion, the key is improving merchandising, product storytelling, CRO, and analytics without losing the premium brand feel. My approach would be to audit product discovery and PDP/PLP performance first, then improve merchandising, storytelling, CRO tests, and reporting around measurable ecommerce KPIs. Quick question: Do you already have the Stripe event and failure-handling rules defined, or should we harden those flows as part of the build? Also, do you already have a preferred OTP provider and retry/fraud policy, or should that be designed with the delivery? Best, Dr. Syafiq

Hi. Are the existing video recording pipelines already built with WebRTC or a third party provider? What payment processing provider handles the current in app transactions? Scaling stable live streaming infrastructure for creators takes careful handling of bitrate drops. Smart handling of adaptive streaming protects streams from lagging during sudden traffic spikes. Regarding timelines and pricing, exact milestones are best aligned after mapping out the current database architecture together. Would you prefer to review similar streaming implementations first, or dive straight into the live architecture on a quick call today?
