About
TextMagic is an all-in-one business messaging platform built for teams that need to reach customers quickly and reliably through SMS and email. The platform combines four core products: Business SMS for sending alerts, reminders, and marketing texts; Email Campaigns with AI-powered templates for professional outreach; a Shared Inbox that consolidates SMS, live chat, Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram into a single team view; and Automation Flows for building no-code drip campaigns and triggered message sequences. Key capabilities include two-way texting, real-time delivery and reply tracking, smart audience segmentation, toll-free numbers, 10DLC compliance management, Bring Your Own Number (BYON), and CRM with task and deal management. Teams can collaborate with unlimited members, assign conversations, tag contacts, and leverage AI-generated replies trained on their own content. TextMagic serves a wide range of industries including healthcare, education, professional services, insurance, hospitality, beauty, entertainment, financial services, and transportation. It's particularly well suited for small businesses looking to consolidate their customer communication stack without needing developers or complex integrations. A free trial with test credits is available, with pay-as-you-go or subscription pricing thereafter.
