Overview
Scenario: Freelance consultant sends 50-100 personalized video follow-ups monthly to prospects after discovery calls, using both email and SMS channels.
Workflow:

- Video summarizes prospect's pain points discussed on call and explains how solution addresses them
- Consultant sends video via email directly from Dubb (no separate email tool needed)
- For high-value prospects, consultant also sends SMS with video link (built-in SMS sending)
- Dubb tracks email opens, video views, and SMS clicks in real-time
- Consultant follows up within 1 hour when prospect watches video
- Result: 30-50% meeting booking rate vs 10-15% with text-only follow-ups
ROI: $40/month Dubb Pro vs $15 Loom + $50 email tool + $25 SMS tool = $90 (56% cost savings), plus 3× higher engagement.
Use Case 2: Real Estate Agent Property Walkthroughs (SMS Focus)
Scenario: Real estate agent sends 30-100 personalized property walkthrough videos monthly to potential buyers via SMS (preferred channel for real estate).
Workflow:
- Agent records property walkthrough video with Dubb mobile app (screen or camera recording)
- Video highlights property features relevant to buyer's wishlist from initial consultation
- Agent sends video via SMS directly from Dubb (no copy-paste links, direct SMS integration)
- Buyer receives SMS with video link, watches on mobile device (85%+ mobile open rate)
- Agent tracks which properties each buyer viewed and their engagement time (signals buying intent)
- Agent prioritizes follow-up calls for buyers who watched 80%+ of video
- Result: 40-60% showing request rate vs 20-30% with text descriptions + photos
ROI: $40/month Dubb Pro enables 50 video property shares via SMS vs $100+ for video hosting + SMS tool separately.

What is Dubb?
Dubb is a budget-friendly video messaging platform for solopreneurs, freelancers, and small teams to record, share, and track personalized videos via email and SMS without requiring expensive team-based tools or per-user pricing.
Unlike team-focused tools like HippoVideo ($20-80/user/month requiring team seats) or enterprise platforms like Vidyard ($90-300/user/month with complex features), Dubb offers flat pricing at $10-100/month regardless of team size, making it ideal for individual users and small teams (1-5 people) who need simple video messaging without AI complexity or collaboration overhead.
Key differentiator: Dubb includes built-in email + SMS sending within the platform, eliminating separate communication tool costs ($50-75/month for email + SMS tools). Record a video, send it via email or SMS directly from Dubb, and track engagement - all in one place.
Best for: Solopreneurs, freelancers, consultants, real estate agents, insurance brokers, and financial advisors sending 20-200 personalized video messages monthly who prioritize budget ($10-40/month) over advanced features (AI avatars, team collaboration, enterprise analytics).
Example use case: A freelance consultant uses Dubb Pro ($40/month) to send 100 video follow-ups monthly after discovery calls. Videos are sent via email (80 prospects) and SMS (20 high-value prospects) directly from Dubb. Consultant tracks engagement and follows up when prospects watch videos. Result: 40% meeting booking rate vs 15% with text follow-ups, all for $40/month vs $90+ for Loom Pro + email + SMS tools separately.

FAQs
Is Dubb cheaper than Loom or HippoVideo?

- Your small team (3-5 reps) uses flat $100 pricing vs HippoVideo ($20/user × 5 = $100-400)

Loom is cheaper when:
- You send <20 videos/month (Loom free = unlimited vs Dubb $10 minimum)

HippoVideo is better value when:
- You need AI avatars for high-volume prospecting ($40 includes AI vs Dubb's manual-only)
- You want CRM integrations at lower entry price ($20 Starter vs Dubb's $40 Pro requirement)
Can I send videos via SMS with Dubb?
Yes (Pro plan and above). Dubb includes built-in SMS sending starting at $40/month Pro plan:
- Send video links via SMS directly from Dubb platform
- Track SMS delivery, opens, and video plays
- No need for separate SMS tools (Twilio, TextMagic, etc.)
SMS sending is particularly valuable for:
- Real estate agents (property walkthroughs to buyers)
- Insurance brokers (policy explanations to clients)
- Financial advisors (market updates to investors)
- Any mobile-first industry where SMS open rates (85%+) beat email (20-30%)
Starter plan ($10) does NOT include SMS (email only).
How many videos can I send per month on Dubb?
Video send limits by plan:
- Starter ($10): 100 video sends/month
- Pro ($40): 500 video sends/month
- Premium ($100): 2,000 video sends/month
One video send = one email or SMS delivery. If you send the same video to 10 prospects, that's 10 video sends.
For unlimited video sends, consider:
- Loom free (unlimited recordings, but manual send via copy-paste links)
- Dubb Premium ($100) if you need 2,000+ sends with email/SMS built-in
Does Dubb have AI avatars like HippoVideo or Pitchlane?
No. Dubb is manual recording only (screen + webcam). It does not offer:
- AI avatar generation (text-to-video)
- Voice cloning or face swapping
- Template-based AI personalization
If you need AI features:
- Use HippoVideo ($40/user with basic AI avatars)
- Use Pitchlane ($99-500 with advanced AI templates)
- Use Tavus ($39+ with ultra-realistic voice cloning)
Dubb's strength is budget-friendly manual video messaging with email/SMS built-in, not AI-powered scale.
Can I use Dubb for free?
Yes, Dubb offers a 14-day free trial with Pro plan access (500 video sends, SMS, CRM integrations). No credit card required for trial signup.
After trial, plans start at $10/month. There is no permanent free tier like Loom (unlimited free).
For ongoing free usage:
- Use Loom free (unlimited manual recordings, no email/SMS sending)
- Use Pitchlane free tier (100 AI videos/month, no manual recording)
Is Dubb good for sales teams?
Depends on team size:
Dubb is good for small teams (1-5 reps):
- Flat $100/month Premium for 5 reps vs $100-400 for per-user tools (50-75% savings)
- Shared video library and team collaboration on Premium plan
- Email + SMS sending for multi-channel outreach
Not recommended for larger teams (10+ reps):
- Limited team analytics vs HippoVideo or Vidyard (no rep performance dashboards, coaching insights)
- No AI features for high-volume prospecting (manual-only limits scale)
- Basic CRM sync vs robust sales engagement platform integrations
Better alternatives for 10+ rep teams:
- HippoVideo ($40/user with AI + advanced analytics)
- Vidyard ($90/user with full platform + attribution)
- Pitchlane ($99-500 team pricing with AI scale)
Does Dubb integrate with Salesforce and HubSpot?
Yes (Pro plan and above). Dubb has native integrations with Salesforce and HubSpot starting at $40/month Pro plan:
Salesforce: Sync video analytics (views, engagement) to contact records. Embed videos in Salesforce emails. Auto-log video sends as activities.
HubSpot: Insert Dubb videos in HubSpot sequences. Track video views in contact timelines. Auto-log video sends as activities.
Note: CRM integrations require Pro plan ($40) or higher. Starter plan ($10) does NOT include CRM sync.
For other CRMs, use Zapier (Pro plan) to build custom integrations.

Our Take
Dubb is a solid budget-friendly video messaging platform for solopreneurs, freelancers, and small teams (1-5 reps) who need simple video recording with email + SMS sending at flat pricing without AI complexity or enterprise features.
Key advantages: 50-70% cost savings vs per-user tools (flat $10-100 vs $20-300/user), email + SMS sending built-in saves $50-75/month vs separate communication tools, 10-minute setup with zero learning curve, and flat team pricing ($100 for 5 reps) beats per-user models for small teams.
However, Dubb lacks AI features (no avatars, voice cloning, template automation) available in HippoVideo or Pitchlane, has video send limits (100-2,000/month) vs Loom's unlimited free, and offers basic analytics vs advanced platforms like Vidyard. CRM integrations require $40 Pro plan vs HippoVideo's $20 Starter with CRM included.
Best fit: Budget-conscious individual users (solopreneurs, freelancers, consultants, agents) sending 20-200 personalized video messages monthly who prioritize cost ($10-40) and email/SMS convenience over advanced features (AI, team collaboration, enterprise analytics). Not recommended for teams needing AI scale (use HippoVideo/Pitchlane), unlimited free recording (use Loom), or robust team analytics (use Vidyard).
Bottom line: Dubb delivers excellent value for its target audience (solopreneurs and small teams on a budget) but lacks the advanced features and scalability of competing platforms. Worth considering for individual users prioritizing simplicity and cost over feature depth.
