Case study · Cloud calling and SMS

AstraComms

A browser app for calls and text messages, with numbers, an inbox and contacts, built on a carrier API.

Illustration of the interface. Live demo on request.

The problem

Calling and texting customers from personal phones mixes up records and does not scale. We built a browser-based phone for business numbers.

What we built

  • Calls and SMS in the browser
  • Business numbers with number pooling
  • 10DLC registration for US messaging
  • Inbox and contacts
  • Research into SMS gateway hardware

How it works

Step by step.

Built with

TelnyxWebRTCPythonReactDocker
  1. Number

    A business number is set up and registered.

  2. Talk

    Calls and texts happen in the browser.

  3. Record

    Every message is saved to the right contact.

  4. Comply

    US carrier rules (10DLC) are handled in the setup.

Where it stands

Built and deployed. Taught us how carrier rules like 10DLC really work, which we now handle for clients.
