Snapchat Spotlight

Snapchat Spotlight is Snapchat's algorithmically curated feed that showcases the best user-generated short-form vertical videos, similar to TikTok's For You Page. Launched in 2020, Spotlight was Snapchat's response to the short-form video revolution, offering a dedicated space for viral content discovery within the Snapchat ecosystem. Spotlight videos are submitted by users and curated by Snapchat's algorithm, which considers watch time, engagement, shares, and retention to determine which content gets featured. Snapchat initially funded Spotlight with $1 million daily creator payouts, making it one of the most lucrative short-form video platforms for creators. Spotlight sits within the Snapchat app alongside Stories, offering a TikTok-like endless scroll of curated content. For creators and brands, Spotlight offers access to Snapchat's predominantly younger demographic (13-34 age range) with high engagement rates. Successful Spotlight content tends to be authentic, creative, and platform-native — repurposed content from other platforms performs poorly.
