0

Ever since the government imposed ban on popular Chinese apps in India, content creators have been rushing to homegrown apps that provide similar short-video-making features on their platforms. Trell happens to be one such lifestyle community-commerce platform that has been making its own mark with a massive user base in India. The go-to platform for users to share their experiences, recommendations and reviews across various categories, is breaking all the records by witnessing more than 100 million-plus downloads, and a thriving community of 18 million-plus creators who are gathering more than 10 billion views on their content every month. Pulkit Agrawal, Co-Founder, Trell, in a conversation with Ramesh Kumar Raja, takes you through his journey of building this lifestyle vlogging app and how it is constantly adapting to the users’ consumption behaviour. Excerpts:

Please tell us about the journey of Trell.

At Trell, we keep our community at the core and connect with them regularly to make rapid iterations on the platform to serve them better. Trell was launched in August 2017 as a simple visual blogging platform that enabled users to share meaningful content around their interests and experiences, in their own languages. Over time, Trell became a platform with a very deeply connected community of 100 million-plus users who were sharing and discovering millions of lifestyle videos in the categories like Fashion, Beauty, Recipes, Travel, Gadgets, Movies & TV Reviews etc.

Peer-to-peer recommendations on the platform were becoming a huge hit through which we realised there were millions of KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) who wanted to share their stories with the community without any language barriers. Today, with social commerce, we are enabling these KOLs to make a living, by reviewing and recommending their favourite products and services that users can buy from the platform itself.

Through Trell we are creating a trusted ecosystem for India’s internet users to make suitable and well-informed lifestyle choices.

What are the traction details of Trell and the response so far on Google Play and App Store?

We have more than 100 million-plus downloads on the platform, and a thriving community of 18 million-plus creators who are gathering more than 10 billion views on their content every month.

With a number of homegrown players joining the fray, how do you look at the growing competition in the video space? How are you different from the existing competitors?

Our mission has always been to create an ecosystem that enables the users to enhance their lifestyle while still remaining culturally relevant to the time and age. Trell is not like other platforms that engage their users with 30-second lip-syncing and dancing videos that primarily serve the purpose of entertainment. Trell is a lifestyle community platform where passionate users share their stories and experiences in the form of 3-minute vertical videos, in their own languages, with a like-minded community, across categories like Fashion, Beauty, Recipes, Movies & TV reviews, Travel and Gadgets.

Are your servers capable enough to handle the growing traffic?

Yes, since the pandemic, we’ve seen an overwhelming number of users join our platform and we immediately upgraded our servers to handle the growing traffic. Through constant product and technology updates, we continue to provide the best user experience on the app while adding thousands of users every day.

What are you doing at the value addition front to make your platform more exciting?

The launch of social commerce is definitely the most important addition to our platform this year. Additionally, we also keep adding exciting features to the platform like our own vlogging camera that has helped our creators make videos with ease. The latest feature ‘Reaction Video Maker’ has gained immense popularity and has been widely appreciated in the creator community for being a unique, easy to use feature that is exclusively available on Trell.

Content moderation is an issue of concern for social media platforms. How do you handle it?

We take content moderation very seriously, and it is in fact one of the most important functionalities that we pride ourselves on. We have developed AI/ML algorithms that review every single piece of content that is uploaded on the platform. Our community members also flag any content that does not meet the platform’s standards and the algorithms keep learning and developing further to restrict irrelevant content for the future. We do not tolerate vulgarity, bullying, and negativity in any form in our community and aim to make it a safe environment.

What efforts are you putting into marketing to make Trell more popular and increase its recall value?

While the marketing strategies keep changing, one thing that has always remained a constant and has been the biggest growth driving factor for us, is prioritizing the community first. Recently, the platform has attracted a lot of well-known creators like Zakhir Khan, Angad Bedi, Meisha Iyer and Macedon, to name a few. We also partnered with Chennai Super Kings for the IPL season which helped us build more visibility and popularity among the cricket fans on the platform who created and shared over 1 million videos for our #CSKMillionStrong campaign.

Do you have any expansion plan to make it global?

We are currently present in over 75% of the country, and in 2021, we will continue to expand our Indian community. We are actively working towards giving our users more personalized content based on their diverse interests and create an exceptional shopping experience for them on the platform. Once we establish ourselves in every corner of the country, we will think about going global.

Please tell us about the funds you are raising and how they are going to help your business model?

Trell has raised a total of $16.95 million after a Series A infusion of $11.4 million from some very well known investors and industry experts like KTB Network, Samsung Ventures, Sequoia’s Surge, Fosun RZ Capital, LetsVenture, WEH Ventures, Sprout Ventures, and Beenext.

The funds have been helping us to develop state of the art technology, and in the expansion of community and adding incredible talent to our team.

Since short video platforms have emerged as a big marketing tool, are you also looking for corporate clients to increase your source of revenue?

Brands come to Trell for its differentiated content offerings which include influencer-led solutions, brand engagement, Trell IPs and shoppable videos. Trell has seen a 3X growth in the number of clients and a 5X growth in revenue in the recent past. Vi, Tinder, Dominos, POCO, are few of the brands that are active on the platform.

How are the content creators able to generate revenue through the app?

KOLs on Trell are extremely well-versed with the cultural diversity of their regions and are experts in their fields. Their popularity in the community helps them collaborate with relevant brands to share experiences, reviews and recommendations of products with their followers in their native languages. This allows users to make well-informed lifestyle decisions and they can buy these products from within the platform. Whenever a purchase happens on the platform, the KOLs earn a certain percentage of sales, through which they can generate revenue on the platform consistently. There are creators who are earning up to 25 lakhs a year from this program on Trell today.

Indian Army’s ban on Facebook, other apps successful: Report

0

The ban imposed by the Indian Army on the usage of 89 smartphone applications, including social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, since June last year, has been highly successful. Of the 1.3 million strong Indian Army, only eight personnel were found to have violated the ban.

According to some media reports, at least 730 Army officers have been authorised to enforce the ban which came into effect last year, on July 15. The apps included 59 Chinese apps banned by the government for general public. But strikingly, the Army also banned the usage of common apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Ella, Snapchat, PubG, Messenger, TrueCaller, anti-virus 360 Security, Tinder, Tumbler, Reditt, Hungama, Songs.pk, Cam Scanner, Ok Cupid, Daily Hunt, and others. Most of the applications are American and Chinese.

Following the violence face-off between India and China along the Line of Actual Control in Eastern Ladakh last year, the Army imposed the ban to prevent cyber attacks, illegal accumulation of digital data and leakage of sensitive information. In last few years, several cases of Army personnel were discovered where they were honey-trapped on Facebook resulting in leakage of sensitive information related to the Indian military and the government.

Though the Army had been issuing several directives on the use of Facebook for personal life and WhatsApp for official work, but only in June last year, it made stringent rules for the violations.

The ban has been enforced by seeking undertakings from each soldier and officer across the country, that they have deleted their accounts and they have not installed any of the applications on their phones.

Homegrown digital financial services platform Paytm today announced that its Enterprise Bill Payment System (EBPS), part of Paytm Payouts is set to cross Rs 3,000 crores in transactions by the end of FY’21. EBPS enables businesses to manage and pay all their utility bills generated across a large number of business locations on a single unified platform.

With Paytm Payouts, businesses can make bulk payments to bank accounts, UPI addresses, Paytm wallets, gift vouchers and other employee benefits like food allowance instantly. It provides 24*7 payment options to transfer any amount and hence benefits companies and their finance department to manage their cash flows better and all kinds of payables including rent payments, vendor invoices, customer cashbacks and refunds, channel partner incentives, utility bill payments or employee reimbursements.

EBPS is the only integrated utility bill management service for businesses in India, enabling companies to monitor all the bills of their shops, offices and warehouses. It comes with a hassle-free reconciliation system and automatically fetches new bills as they are generated.

Paytm Payouts is partnering with major companies in sectors including retail, banking, logistics, among others to expand the service.

Manual processing of bills leads to companies often ending up missing payments. Businesses also must keep a retinue of staff engaged in the payment and reconciliation of bills. EBPS enables businesses to cut down on their administrative costs, increase operational efficiency and save on the bill amounts by avoiding penalties and unlocking early payment discounts. EBPS empowers companies to save on their bill by unlocking remunerations from electricity providers in the form of reward schemes for early and timely payment.

It enables swift payments by allowing users to easily filter bills depending on the business location, due dates, bill providers etc. Companies can avail the service by submitting their details on the Paytm for Business Enterprise Bill Payments website.

Saloni Malhotra, Vice President – Paytm, said, “We aim to empower companies large and small with 360-degree solutions that help them run their businesses more efficiently. Instead of spending their time and effort on the exercise of managing bill payments, EBPS offers companies the chance to cut costs and focus on their business growth. We expect this service to process Rs 3,000 crore worth of utility bills paid by companies in the current financial year.”

Paytm Payouts is driven by a powerful API that can be integrated with any platform, thereby eliminating the need for companies to invest time and resources to build their platform. Businesses can also deposit money directly from any bank account to process any payment. The feature-rich and simple to use service is enabling several companies to pay salaries, food allowances, incentives, rewards to housekeeping and other contractual staff.

OnePlus 9 Pro live images reveal a partnership with Hasselblad for camera

0

Earlier it was disclosed that the upcoming smartphone of OnePlus will feature cameras with the partnership with Leica, however, the new leaks suggest otherwise!

According to a new leak by a Tech YouTuber Dave Lee, the company has no such partnership with the German Camera company for the upcoming OnePlus 9 Series, in fact, the new live photos of the OnePlus 9 Pro has surfaced and they show a Hasselblad branding on the camera housing!

OnePlus is not the only company to partner with Hasselblad, Motorola actually did a few years ago with the launch of a Moto Z Camera Mod that was made in partnership with the Swedish camera manufacturer.

As per the leaks, the OnePlus 9 Pro is seen in Silver Grey color, with a curved display with a punch hole and a curved glass back that is home to a quad-camera setup. The rear cameras include two large sensors atop each other and two small ones positioned side by side. The camera housing is also home to the LED flash, laser focus system, and a small hole with a grille which we believe has a microphone inside it. The images confirm that the OnePlus 9 Pro will truly not feature a periscope camera lens as all the sensors are round.

There is a USB-C port at the bottom and it is flanked by the SIM tray and speaker grille on each side. The images also show that the OnePlus 9 Pro also has its frame curved around the Alert Slider and power button on the right side.

Some other images show some of the phone’s specifications. The display settings reveal the OnePlus 9 Pro has a QHD+ display with a resolution of 3120 x 1440. Users will be able to choose if they want to set the display resolution to QHD+ or FHD+ (2340 x 1080) or have the phone automatically switch to the appropriate resolution to save battery. We also see that the phone has a 120Hz refresh rate and users can switch between that and the 60Hz standard.

The OnePlus 9 series is expected to launch this quarter. There will be a total of three models – the OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro, and a third model called the OnePlus 9 Lite.

Jabra adds three new features to Elite 85t

0

Jabra has announced three new features on the Jabra Elite 85t, made available via the Jabra Sound+ app; MyFit, headset renaming and Off-mode to earbud toggle.

The MyFit feature on the Sound+ app allows Elite 85t users to confirm their correct EarGel size and position to optimize their ANC and audio experience.

This is the first software upgrade offered to Elite 85t users following the launch in December 2020, that adds features to the earbud.

The feature works as a fit test where a 6.5 seconds multitone is played to check for sound leakage with the help of the in-ear microphone. Sound leakage detected in either earbud is an indication of a poor fit, and users will be requested to readjust their earbud or change their EarGel size. The process can be repeated until a good fit is achieved.

Through providing this feature, Jabra is ensuring that users of the Elite 85t have the best seal possible, ultimately giving the users an enhanced audio experience, improved active noise cancellation and deeper base.

The next feature being offered to Elite 85t users is related to the sound mode cycles available (controlled via the buttons on the earbuds), which adds to the previously available cycle options; HearThrough and ANC. With this addition, users will now be able to cycle between HearThrough, ANC and off.

Jabra has now expanded the cycle option on the earbud to become the same as the cycle option in the app.

Finally, Elite 85t users will now also have the option to name their headset. This addition will change the name of their headset in both the Sound+ app and the Bluetooth list.
