It was something for the kids. While grown-ups were talking, youngsters were tapping furiously on numeric keypads.

They didn’t get it.

But the founders of tyntec did.

tyntec’s co-founder Thorsten Trapp saw that SMS could be a fantastic tool for connecting enterprises with their increasingly mobile customers.

Imagine it: a direct channel into the pockets of their consumers.

Thorsten did more than just imagine. He went ahead and built it.

This wasn’t easy. SMS was complex. There were multiple players to work with. Messages didn’t always get through.

But Thorsten’s vision was realized. tyntec built a proprietary enterprise SMS platform – the first to provide SS7-based service level agreements.

Today, there is so much more to mobile communications than SMS.

Enterprises like yours can interact with consumers across a range of options – text, chat apps, voice calls and more.

But using these mobile channels is not straightforward. Behind each of them lies a complex web of network and technologies.

tyntec takes away this complexity. We turn multiple channels into a single point of access, and provide simple, powerful APIs and tools to use them.

It’s a continuously evolving story…

But one with one clear direction: to help businesses make a human connection with anyone, anywhere.
