Building TuVozNow: Connecting Latino Communities Through Content and Communication

Hi DEV Community! I’m Melvin Montoya, a Honduran-born entrepreneur and founder of TuVozNow.

We started TuVozNow in 2020 with a goal: give Latino communities a culturally relevant place to connect, express themselves and build opportunities across borders.

Today, TuVozNow is available on the web, iOS and Android. It brings together:

Videos, blogs and livestreaming

Messaging, voice calls and video calls

Creator monetization tools

Browser-based meetings through TuVozNow Meet

Our biggest product question is how to make those features feel like one useful experience. Someone might discover a blog or video, join a conversation and then stay connected with the people they meet.

As a founder, I’m here to share our journey and learn from developers and community builders.

When building a platform with several features, how do you keep onboarding simple and help new members find value quickly?

I’d appreciate honest feedback on the experience, especially anything that feels confusing or unnecessary.
