SEATTLE, WA and CHICAGO, IL – August 8, 2016 – Flowroute Inc., the leading provider of advanced calling and messaging services for SaaS companies, today introduced its Communication Application Module (CAM) program, designed to help developers accelerate time-to-market, reduce development costs and remove the barriers of delivering carrier-grade messaging capabilities within their applications and services. The first three application modules, written in Python, include SMS proxy, two-factor authentication, and appointment reminders.

Flowroute was created with the goal to give organizations unparalleled control over their customer communications. The CAM program is designed to speed up the implementation of messaging into applications, enabling developers to focus on producing compelling user experiences. The initial modules include:

●      SMS proxy – By using a Flowroute phone number, application users can mask their phone number when sending an SMS message, never exposing either recipient’s actual phone number. This is essential in use cases such as ridesharing applications, when passengers need to communicate anonymously with their driver via text messaging.

●      Two-factor authentication – This provides an extra layer of security for users by applying two-factor authentication within web and mobile applications. Interactions are secured by enhancing authentication of web sessions by sending and validating a PIN via SMS.

●      Appointment reminders – Developers can enable applications to send appointment reminders and confirmation messages to users via SMS.

Flowroute is introducing the Communication Application Module program at ClueCon 2016 in Chicago this week. Casey MacPhee, the program’s lead developer will be demonstrating applications utilizing the modules on Thursday, August 11 from 4:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. CT.

“Our goal as a company is to make advanced communications easier and more accessible to the developer community. The Communication Application Module program came to fruition as a result of our experience helping our customers with these valuable use cases,” said Sean Hsieh, founder and chief product officer at Flowroute. “We are excited to continue to add new modules to the program that developers can leverage to enhance their user experiences.”

Additionally, Hsieh will be presenting a session titled, “Making Flowroute’s SMS Work For You”, where he will demonstrate how to integrate the company’s SMS API into communication platforms such as FreeSWITCH.

Developers can access the Application Module’s from the Flowroute Developer Portal.
