In their own words
Beetexting
Beetexting is a text messaging platform for nonprofits contacting donors, volunteers, staff, and the people they serve. It supports one-to-one conversations, broadcasts, scheduled or recurring messages, and group threads with up to 10 recipients. Teams can share inboxes, claim or transfer conversations, leave internal notes, tag teammates, and mark conversations resolved. Messages can include photos, videos, and documents; the FAQ says these do not cost more than a normal message. Beetexting works on Android, iOS, and the web, and lists Salesforce, HubSpot, Google, Zoho, Stripe, Microsoft, and Office 365 as integration partners. Its Connect service provides a REST API authenticated with OAuth 2.0. The listed plans include opt-in, opt-out, TCR, and CTIA compliance features. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial is available. Professional costs $89.97 a month, plus messaging costs and industry fees; it includes two users, one number, and 1,000 messages per month, with additional messages at $0.04 each.
