Sociocs
Sociocs is business texting software for bulk campaigns and customer conversations, bringing multiple communication channels into a shared inbox. Campaigns can use SMS, MMS, and WhatsApp, with contact lists, segments, scheduling, recurring sends, opt-out handling, and delivery reporting. Teams can assign conversations, use reply templates and internal notes, set follow-up reminders, and automate actions. The inbox can also bring in Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Google Reviews, Web Chat, and Online Forms.
Sociocs connects to customer-controlled Twilio, Telnyx, or SignalHouse accounts; the company says this lets customers pay provider rates without message markups. Integrations include ActiveCampaign, Bubble, Customer.io, Keap, Webflow, WordPress, and Zapier. Its API can initiate messages from another platform, and webhooks can forward incoming messages. Automatic translation is available in more than 100 languages for conversations and bulk messaging. The free plan includes two channels, one user, and 1,000 messages per month. Paid plans start at $12/user/mo; a seven-day trial is listed. It runs on Android, iOS, web, and API.
