Welcome to MessageDesk
Why MessageDesk
Great conversations build great businesses. Most texting tools were built for blasts—not for real, back-and-forth dialogue. MessageDesk gives your whole team a shared SMS inbox that feels rich, personal, and powerful.- Team visibility: Anyone can jump in, assign, and resolve conversations—without juggling personal phones.
- One place for everything: Route, label, and manage every message from every connected phone line.
- Built for now: Simple, reliable tools that help you meet people where they are—by text.
How MessageDesk Works
MessageDesk centralizes SMS across your business phone numbers (landline/VoIP hosting, purchased local/toll-free, or connected Twilio) into a single, collaborative inbox. Key features- Shared Inbox: Teammates see the same thread, assign owners, leave internal comments, and reply fast.
- Custom roles and permissions: Control access by phone line, label, or teammate inbox (roles & resource-level permissions).
- Automations and scheduling: Set auto-replies (e.g., after-hours) and schedule messages for later.
- Compliance tools: Support for opt-in and opt-out and carrier registration to improve deliverability.
