Social Messaging on CloudTalk Gets Personal


SAN FRANCISCO --(Business Wire)--

CloudTalk today announced the launch of "Let's Talk," a new mobile application for private social and business messaging. "Let's Talk," which is available for free download now through the iTunes App Store, lets you engage in private conversations and create invitation-only discussion groups with your immediate social and professional circles. CloudTalk is the only social platform that lets you communicate on your mobile the way you do in real life by integrating asynchronous voice as well as text, photo and video - all in one message exchange.

"With the success of our CloudTalk app came many requests, especially from business users, to create a private version," says David Hayden, chairman and CEO of CloudTalk. "With 'Let's Talk,' you can communicate within your social and professional circles privately with many of the same communications options you love in the CloudTalk app."

Highlights for the new Let's Talk app include:

  • Private Messaging: Conduct conversations with the people you know one-on-one, or in a group; copy and paste messages between conversations; add others to a conversation thread already in progress.
  • Private Groups: Create private invitation-only groups based on specific topics; like nd comment on threads in real-time; view your group chats in a single organized inbox.
  • Private Inbox: Keep track of all of your conversations with friends, families and business associates in one interactive timeline.



"Let's Talk" runs on the CloudTalk Platform, which features:

  • Voice Messaging: Send and receive real-time asynchronous voice messages to contacts in your social circle.
  • Text Messaging: Stay in touch with your contacts or groups of contacts with free, unlimited text messaging.
  • Multimedia Sharing: Add photos and videos to your conversations when words just aren't enough.
  • Universal Inbox: Never lose track of an important conversation again, with your latest one-on-one and group conversations all stored and accessible in one place.
  • Engaging Connections: Invite your friends or business associates to join you on "Let's Talk" via SMS or email and follow each other, so you can engage in conversations or share content.

"'Let's Talk' is a precursor to a private label application we will be offering soon to businesses that want to leverage the CloudTalk Platform and deliver high quality mobile social communications offerings to their users more quickly and cost-effectively," continued Hayden.
