We provide peer-to-peer (P2P) text messaging services for governments to communicate official updates to their constituents and jurisdictions. Our network of agents will send all of the text messages for you individually, using local numbers from a location that you specify.
This allows you to communicate to large groups of mobile phone numbers without worrying about traditional opt-in requirements. Because all messages are sent by real humans (our agents), there are no sending restrictions.

How It Works
Start by writing your messages. Our smart platform analyzes each message before sending, giving you tips to maximize the deliverability and impact of your message blast.
Tell us who you want to target and we will provide you with a relevant list of contacts. Or upload your own contact list. We automatically clean your list of all invalid and inactive numbers to reduce costs.
Tell us when you want to send it out and from which location. This determines which area code is used for the local numbers that will be sending the messages.
Our network of agents sends each message individually through our platform. Your contacts receive a normal text message.
Easily engage in 1-to-1 conversations with all responders using our mobile app. Our state of the art technology uses Artificial Intelligence to identify positive, neutral, and negative responders and sorts them accordingly. We always ensure that all opt-out requests are honored and enforced.
