Company Description

Sochat looks to completely upend how people text and form new connections on their phones. The goal? To finally overturn iMessage and old-fashioned texting in America, where a fragmented messaging market has left people still using very old technology. In addition to a broad suite of fast and secure messaging features, Sochat allows for instant automatic connections between people over Bluetooth.
