Social Media
Feeds, messaging and creator tools built for communities that actually grow.
Social products fail in two directions. They never reach the density where the feed feels alive, or they succeed and discover that moderation, abuse and infrastructure cost were never designed for.
We build social and community platforms - general purpose, niche and creator-led - with feed architecture, moderation tooling and real-time infrastructure engineered for both outcomes.
What we build for Social Media businesses
- Feeds and timelines - Chronological, algorithmic and hybrid feeds with ranking that can be tuned and explained.
- Messaging and real-time - Direct and group messaging, presence, typing indicators, read receipts and push delivery at scale.
- Creator tooling - Publishing, scheduling, media editing, analytics and monetisation through subscriptions or tips.
- Moderation and trust - Automated detection, reporting workflows, reviewer queues, appeals and enforcement audit trails.
- Recommendations and discovery - Interest graphs, people and content suggestions, search and topic clustering.
- Media pipeline - Upload, transcoding, thumbnailing and CDN delivery for images, video and audio at volume.
Why Social Media teams choose Prophecius
- Feed architecture that scales - Fan-out strategy chosen for your growth curve, so the timeline stays fast as the graph gets dense.
- Moderation from day one - Reporting, review and enforcement tooling built before you need it, not during a crisis.
- Predictable infrastructure cost - Media pipeline and storage tiering designed so success does not produce an unaffordable bill.
- Community-shaped - Ranking, notification and growth mechanics tuned to your community rather than copied from a general-purpose network.
Social Media questions we are asked most
How do you handle content moderation?
Layered - automated classification for obvious violations, user reporting with prioritised review queues, human reviewer tooling with clear policy guidance, and an appeals path. Every enforcement action is logged for audit, which matters increasingly under regional online safety regulation.
What is the right feed architecture?
It depends on your graph shape. Fan-out on write suits most networks and keeps reads fast; fan-out on read handles accounts with very large follower counts without write amplification. Most mature platforms use a hybrid, and we choose based on your projected distribution.
How do you control media storage and delivery costs?
Through tiered storage that moves cold media to cheaper classes, transcoding ladders matched to actual playback data, aggressive CDN caching, and lifecycle rules for content nobody views. These decisions dominate infrastructure cost in media-heavy social products.
