Hey Product Hunt 👋

I'm Russ, and I built iBlueText.

I kept seeing the same thing: texts from an iPhone get answered, texts from a short code or random number get ignored. Blue bubbles get far more replies, but the tools that send real iMessage want a sales demo, won't show prices up front, and after the demo it's crazy expensive.

So I built one where every line is a real US number on a real iPhone, with unlimited international messaging included for fully hosted lines.

🔵 iMessage to iPhones, with automatic SMS/RCS to Android

💬 WhatsApp on the same number (hosted or bring your own)

🔎 iPhone lookup: check which numbers are on iMessage, half a cent each

📣 Campaigns with merge fields, pacing and STOP handling

🔐 SMS Verify: one-time codes for sign-ups, logins and 2FA, half a cent each

🤖 AI replies, plus free keyword "quick answers" to keep costs down

✨ Tapbacks, message effects, photos, voice notes and group chats.

📱 iPhone and Android apps are live in both stores, so you can answer customers on the go.

🔌 Live apps for GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Close, Lofty, Wix, Zapier and Slack, plus a REST API and webhooks, and it also works inside ChatGPT and Claude.

Two ways to run it: we host the iPhones and Macs for you, or run your own lines on your own Mac with our Bridge app (one-click installer, 3-day free trial, up to 12 lines on one M4 Mac mini.

No demo or sales pitch, every price is on the website. Lines are $29/mo self-hosted or $99/mo fully hosted, and every new account gets 40 lookups, 10 verifications and 10 campaign texts free for testing + a Sandbox, no card needed.

Coming next: Shopify, WordPress and several other CRM integrations.

I'd love your feedback, especially on what you'd text your customers about. I'm here all day answering questions.
