The problem it solves

Sending texts to customers one by one from your phone does not scale once you have more than a handful of people to reach. You need a reliable way to fire off a message without opening an app and typing it out every time.

Who it fits

Small businesses that need to send text or picture message alerts to customers programmatically.

How it works

  1. A send request is triggered with the recipient number and message
  2. The system routes the message through Plivo
  3. Plivo delivers the text or picture message to the recipient's phone
What you get

Text messages delivered without manual dialing tools

You send a text or picture message to any phone number automatically, without touching a messaging app yourself.

What you get

A delivered SMS or MMS message to the recipient's phone.

What you need

A Plivo account with a registered phone number.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
