What is Padpaw?
Padpaw offers companies a bridge from their web and social media sites to the vast mobile world of their members. Padpaw makes it easy to integrate mobile messaging giving members immediate access to information and updates important to them. It also allows them to get quick responses from members providing accurate feedback when needed.
Padpaw is unique in that we can help turn responses into specific actions. While many companies offer SMS services for simple sending and receiving of text messages. Padpaw has adds extra capabilities that can keep track of responses (RSVPs, Poll Results, Signups) and apply them to the correct outgoing message or application.
We currently offer two services:
Web Service Integration
Padpaw provides an API for fast integration of mobile messaging to web services.
With it, a web site can send messages to groups of members instead of individuals
and then manage the replies. In addition, Padpaw also handles the double opt-in
process required by wireless carriers. You can find out more at our Developer's
site.

Padpaw.net offers companies and organizations a simple, private mobile messaging
