Consumer Video Feedback SAAS on AWS

In the ever-evolving digital marketplace, where the dynamics of brand-to-consumer connections shape the very fabric of success, innovative solutions are a necessity.

Recognizing the limitations of traditional engagement methods, a visionary team in India dared to reimagine the future—where these connections are not just maintained but flourish, powered by the compelling force of video testimonials that revolutionize consumer-product interactions. This forward-thinking approach not only bridges the gap between brands and their customers but also strengthens product affinity in a remote world.

Businesses today are increasingly adopting video feedback systems to gain deeper insights into customer behavior, enhance product marketing, and elevate the overall customer experience with strategic marketing advantage. The appeal of such solutions lies in their ability to capture the subtleties of user interactions that traditional feedback methods often miss.

Market Drivers:

Richer Data & Deeper Insights: Video feedback provides a richer and more nuanced understanding of user experiences by capturing emotions, body language, and context. This breaks the limitations of text-based feedback, offering businesses a comprehensive view of customer sentiments.

Increased Engagement: Consumers often find video feedback more engaging and less time-consuming than traditional surveys. The interactive nature of video can lead to higher response rates, providing brands with more substantial and actionable data.

Accessibility & Convenience: With the widespread adoption of smartphones, recording and submitting video feedback has become highly accessible and convenient for consumers. This ease of use allows feedback to be shared in real-time, on-the-go, making the process seamless and efficient.

Improved Customer Experience: Through video feedback, businesses can gain valuable insights into customer pain points, preferences, and product interactions. These insights enable companies to refine their offerings, enhance customer experience, and build stronger brand loyalty.

The growing interest in video feedback is reflected in the expanding Consumer Video Feedback Software Market. According to recent projections, this market is expected to reach USD 3.576 million by 2033, underscoring the significant growth potential of this technology .

Navigating the Challenge

Our client's vision was clear yet bold: to elevate brand engagement through the power of video, with aspirations that extended beyond just marketing, encompassing employee engagement, real-time customer service, and more. However, in the complex landscape of cloud-based services, where simplicity of design must coexist with intricate execution, the path forward was anything but straightforward.

The challenges were significant—taming the high costs associated with video storage, ensuring the unassailable security of user data, and seamlessly integrating subscription payment systems. All this had to be accomplished while maintaining a sharp focus on delivering detailed analytics for tracking campaign performance.

Crafting the Solution

Enter AWS SAAS fundamentals—a framework that positioned us to address these complex needs with grace. Grappling with these fundamentals requires acute awareness and a mastery of cloud services, the kind that Aethergo prides itself on. We were about to build a multi-tenant SAAS solution, and we had to put efforts in the architectural details of resource sharing and isolations.

We leveraged AWS's scalable serverless backend services, which allowed us to create a flexible and responsive platform. By implementing AWS API Gateway, we devised a simplified API system. This technical fabric was further enhanced using Lambda functions, using on-demand cost optimizations.

Understanding that cost-effective storage was required, we smartly utilized S3 tiering to balance the need for accessibility with prudent financial stewardship. We developed trustworthy multi-tenancy user authentication with AWS Cognito. When it came to payments, integrating Stripe meant we could offer a frictionless subscription experience, fostering customer loyalty and operational efficiency. Copywriting the assets we used AWS Step Function to perform watermarking on the flow.

And to ensure data integrity, DynamoDB was our chosen shield, providing encrypted storage to safeguard user information, reinforcing trust, and fulfilling our promise of responsiveness and security.

The user interface, a masterpiece conceptualized with React and TypeScript, was designed to break down barriers, allowing users to effortlessly record, replay and share their experiences. With multiple cloud upload tactics we enabled smooth upload of large video contents to AWS.

Beside choosing these cost effective, scalable technology stack we had to integrate very detailed analytical data points for each campaign customers created. We handled the unique identity mapping of the reviewer and their assigned campaign to validate all the feedback received is genuine and unique with STEP FUNCTION. All these were made available with a very intuitive analytics dashboard for each user.
