Welcome to Textline

We make it easy to talk with customers like they’re old friends.

Great customer experiences start with effective communication. More than a thousand companies of all sizes use Textline to connect directly with customers using a communication channel that is convenient and personal. Whether you want to text for customer service, sales, logistics, operations, or more, our platform will make your job easier and save your team valuable time. No more email, no more phone calls, no more apps.

A long time ago ...

The founding of Textline was inspired by a simple question: Now that so many of our daily personal conversations take place over text messaging, why can't we text businesses? After all, we almost always prefer the convenience of texting over a traditional phone call. But most companies' phone numbers are not textable. We created Textline to change that!

Textline began in 2015 as a project inside The Giant Pixel Corporation, a startup studio in San Francisco, California. (Fun fact: Textline's original code name was OtterChat.) Early beta users such as ticketing app Gametime inspired us to spin off Textline as an independent startup company in early 2016. We've been working ever since to fulfill our mission to make it easier for customers to communicate with businesses—so easy, in fact, that it's as easy as texting a friend.
