GroupMe
Group text messaging to every phone, big and small.
GroupMe is a group messaging app that allows users to create and participate in group chats across any phone. It connects people in various social circles — from small friend groups to large communities — through a simple messaging interface. GroupMe also provides a developer API for building apps and bots on top of its group messaging platform.
Users create or join group chats accessible from any phone, with messages delivered via SMS or the GroupMe app; developers can extend functionality via a REST API and bot system.
Anyone wanting to stay connected with groups of friends, family, or communities
