TextPower builds text messaging software and services for enterprise alerts and security authentication, including a SmartAlerts platform for utilities and municipal reporting. The company is launching a patent-pending two-factor website authentication product called TextKey to replace tokens or security fobs for online identity verification. SmartAlerts is deployed in dozens of utilities across the U.S. and uniquely supports inbound SMS reporting via direct integration with Outage Management Systems. Municipal customers use the platform to accept reports about graffiti, potholes, and storm damage, supplementing older voice-centric systems to cut costs and improve efficiency. TextPower's mission-critical infrastructure uses geo-redundancy and claims delivery to virtually every cell phone in the United States with connections to most recognized wireless operators. The company emphasized plans to expand sales and marketing in utility and enterprise markets and to grow its website security business using the new funding.
