One platform. Infinite ways to engage.

Visit Engage by Cell

Engage by Cell is a cloud-based mobile engagement platform that combines text messaging with mobile web app building, audio guides, GPS mapping, donation tools, and digital wallet cards. It addresses the challenge of reaching audiences who are away from desktops or miss calls and emails, supporting use cases such as internal communications and alerts, safety and crisis messaging, training, onboarding, recruiting, fundraising, wayfinding, tours, and events.

Core capabilities include one-to-one and emergency SMS, auto calling, message boards, sequencing, MMS, list segmentation, and a web opt-in widget, alongside a no-code mobile web app builder, dial-in audio guides, wayfinding maps with geofencing, ride booking, donation pages, digital wallet cards, appointment booking, onboarding checklists, forms, polls, and scavenger hunts. EngageAI provides AI-assisted features, and an open API supports integration with CRM systems, email platforms, and in-house databases. Content is accessed via text message, QR code, or link without app downloads, with a cloud-based dashboard offering real-time reporting and analytics.

The platform serves organizations across healthcare, government, enterprise, workforce development, nonprofits, and museums and cultural institutions. It is available through month-to-month, annual, and multi-year subscriptions, with individual or integrated services quoted on request; pricing varies by messaging bundle, content volume, location size, call volume, pass fees, or event. Unlimited administrators are included, and support is offered by phone, email, and web chat.
