History

Tyntec was founded by entrepreneurs Dr. Ralph Eric Kunz and Thorsten Trapp in 2002.

Funding

In June 2008, Tyntec received a non-disclosed investment sum from HarbourVest, an independent global alternative investment firm. In December 2010, Tyntec received further investment from Iris Capital, a pan-European growth fund specializing in technology, media and telecommunications.

Technology

Tyntec has built and developed a scalable proprietary patent-protected technology infrastructure that is installed at the operator level, which gives it direct operator-level connectivity to the GSM network.

The signal routing and delivery platform, housed in the technical operations center in Dortmund, is the core of Tyntec's messaging platform. It is designed to be scalable and to handle high volumes of traffic without service degradation. It also provides several interfaces, which are available across all networks.

Tyntec's direct access into the global mobile network through its agreements with operators means that the company can directly reach the subscribers' handset. This is particularly important in crisis situations when networks are often overloaded or go down.

Awards

In 2010, Tyntec was awarded the Red Herring (magazine) 100 Europe Award. In 2011 it was awarded the Red Herring (magazine) Global 100 Award for its tt.One solution. In the same year it also won the Internet Telephony Product of the Year Award.

Competitors

Competitors are Clickatell, Ericsson IPX, Infobip, Sybase with Sybase 365, mBlox, Netsize, Twilio
