A total reinvention of text messaging
Mei can give carriers a jump-start and open up new revenue opportunities by white-labeling a market-ready app with a range of advanced features. By enabling carriers to upgrade their SMS service to a richer messaging experience, Mei is putting the carriers on an even playing field with other over-the-top (OTT) messaging apps today.
RCS & An alternative to google
RCS will enable carriers to start reclaiming the messaging market lost by SMS. Currently, Google is the RCS leader and they are gaining share by preinstalling Android Messages. We have developed our own RCS implementation with expectation to interoperate:
Monetization option
Digital media/service providers are increasingly exploring avenues for user acquisition as mobile landscape matures. Increasingly, the messaging app is becoming the portal to 3rd party content and service providers – like the browser is the portal on the desktop. Many providers are offering a wide range of partnerships and affiliate marketing options. With Mei, carriers have the potential for revenue through paid spots, lead generation and pay-per-use.
