Their proprietary SaaS (software as a service) Text Marketing Platform is used across the country by businesses of all sizes to build, grow, retain, engage, and even monetize databases of users that have opted-in to receive content from them via text. Whether the platform is used for marketing, sales, internal operations, or customer service, TapOnIt's best-in-class solution helps its clients reach their goals. In January 2018, Gannett, a leader in local media, invested $2M in TapOnIt to accelerate its growth. The team operates out of its office in Davenport, Iowa.
