Dubsmash

Dubsmash was a video-selfie and lip-sync mobile application that let users record short videos set to a library of popular audio clips, quotes, and songs. Founded in Germany in 2014 by Jonas Druppel, Roland Grenke, and Daniel Taschik, it grew into one of the most downloaded social video apps, particularly among younger creators in the United States. Reddit acquired Dubsmash in December 2020, integrated its video-creation technology into the Reddit platform, and discontinued the standalone Dubsmash app on February 22, 2022. Dubsmash never offered a public developer API, SDK, or documentation program; its consumer domain (dubsmash.com) no longer resolves. This profile is retained in the API Evangelist network as a historical, defunct company record surfaced from venture-capital portfolio data.

Dubsmash is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Social, Video, Mobile, and Consumer.
