How does it work?

In three simple steps you send SMS messages to your entire organisation.

1. Connect

Securely link your Microsoft environment through an Azure app registration. A one-time setup — we only request read access to your contacts.

2. Synchronise

Your users and their phone numbers are retrieved automatically from Entra ID. Changes in your directory follow along with every synchronisation.

3. Send

Select contacts or groups and send your message — straight from our online tool, to one person or your entire team at once.
