summary
Starts as developers, launches multiple failed projects and pivoted seven times until 2006 when the business becomes an API-first CPaaS and begins scaling; stops coding in 2005 and shifts into sales, building a full‑stack telecom backbone that exposes a single API for SMS/MMS/voice/WhatsApp/video/email/auth and powers enterprise and developer workloads. Global expansion puts 70 offices on the map and pandemic work supports public health messaging in 40 countries.
