  Mast Mobile's core product allows individuals and businesses to receive and separate personal and work calls on one device, with features like PBX support and automatic logging of work calls into sales databases. The company launched on Android through a partnership with Samsung, rolling out on Galaxy S7, S7 edge, S6 and S6 edge models and integrating the Samsung Knox Cloud SDK for device security. Samsung made a minority investment of undisclosed size as part of that broader partnership. CEO David Messenger, previously an executive at Virgin Mobile USA, said Samsung reached out last year and that the company sees opportunities to expand overseas and leverage Samsung's enterprise tools. Mast emphasizes a software-license business model and says it resells mobile network access or rents devices at cost when necessary. Mast Mobile offers a platform that provisions one device per employee with native separate work and personal numbers, labeling inbound calls and choosing the appropriate outbound line without toggling or third‑party apps. The product integrates with Salesforce to enable one‑click dialing and to capture work‑call metadata for employer reporting and sales tracking. Companies can create accounts and provision employees in minutes, with devices deliverable within 24 hours, and Mast automates split billing so employers pay agreed portions while individuals cover the rest. Mast uses a SaaS pricing model at $30 per employee per month and also charges for network integration, bundled network access, and device rental. The company had just begun commercial sales a month before the article and had signed 20 companies. It works with Sprint as a carrier partner and expects to go live with a second carrier soon; the article notes tension around employee privacy when employers capture work‑call information.
