MegaTok was born in the middle of the COVID era - a time when podcasts exploded, attention spans shrank, and people craved quick, meaningful content they could consume on the move.
expressive audio platform unlike anything in traditional podcast apps
Where the Idea Sparked
MegaTok started during the podcast boom, when everyone loved audio but few had time for 40-minute episodes. No platform focused on ultra-short content—so we built one. A place where 7-minute audio clips became the new way to share ideas, stories, and conversations.
Research showed listeners wanted quick, meaningful content, and creators wanted something easier than running a full podcast. MegaTok became the middle ground: fast to make, effortless to consume, and built for social interaction.
As the product designer, I defined the mobile-first experience, shaped the interaction model for short audio, and created a visual identity that felt energetic, lightweight, and simple enough for anyone to start creating within seconds.
Designing MegaTok
We built the platform around three core principles:
Creator Growth
Affiliate tools helped influencers build communities and monetize their reach.
Community
Debate Spaces turned listeners into participants, making audio feel conversational, not passive.
Speed
Create a Tok in under 90 seconds - record, trim, add effects, publish. Fast and effortless.
