Telstra Desktop Messaging is being withdrawn on 9 November 2026. Bring the inbox across →

The business messaging desk for Australian 04s.

The business number the whole team can answer.

A real 04 in a shared inbox — cases the desk can own, photos that land in the thread, inbound voice on the same number, and a BE AI agent that can draft or send on the same number.

True MMS on the business 04 — photos in the same shared inbox as your texts. Few platforms do this properly.

The problem

Texts on personal phones. Broadcast tools with no queue. Chatbots that invent.

Personal phones

Customer texts land on whoever’s phone answered last. History walks out when staff do.

Blast logs, not a desk

Credit packs send outbound fine. They don’t give you an unassigned queue, cases, or a shared thread.

Chatbots without a leash

Draft-for-review, business hours, and cases exist because a person still owns the conversation.

In the product

Number + inbox + case + true MMS + inbound voice + BE AI agent

We are not competing on ¢ per SMS. The work is the operations layer around a real business 04 — true MMS in the shared inbox, inbound voice on the same number, number porting, cases, campaigns, surveys, collaterals, API/MCP, and a BE AI agent. A full messaging desk, not another credit pack with a chat tab.

Inbox

Shared conversation list on the company service number — live updates, search, drafts, signatures, mark-read, and thread summarise. The desk works one queue instead of personal phones.

Cases

Open, unassigned, mine, closed. A human reply takes the case; notes stay on the thread. Queue-first so ownership is visible work, not a Slack-style assign sticker.

MMS

True MMS on the business number. Photos land in the shared inbox on the company 04, so quotes and damage pics stay with the thread — not a staff phone.

Inbound voice

Receive voice calls on the same business 04.

Number porting

Port your existing number onto BE Messaging.

BE AI agent

A guarded helper on the same 04 — draft-for-review or auto-send, business hours, rate limits, and off-hours catch-up. A person still owns the case.

Campaigns

One-off schedule in the company timezone. Binary Elements is an ACMA Certified Telco and Sender ID Agent — we help you register, then Campaigns send from that ID. Replies become inbox conversations, so a blast still ends in a thread the desk can answer.

Sender ID

Binary Elements is an ACMA Certified Telco and Sender ID Agent — we help you register your alphanumeric Sender ID. Send Campaigns from that ID. Conversations stay on your business 04.

Surveys

SMS invitation, hosted form, quiet hours, cooldown, results, and a completion webhook — ask on the number without turning SMS into a keyword maze.

Collaterals

Company library of images and files. Attach from the inbox so the whole desk sends the same current collateral into the conversation.

Shopify

Connect Shopify · order texts on the case · abandoned cart · Campaigns to segments · survey after purchase.

API / MCP

REST at /api/v1, scoped keys, HMAC webhooks, and MCP. Full docs after you sign in — software can sit in the same inbox as the team.

A morning on the desk

Inbound → case → reply → close

  1. Step 1

    Inbound arrives

    A customer texts the company 04. It lands in the shared inbox with live update.

  2. Step 2

    Case in unassigned

    If cases are on for that number, the desk sees an open case in the queue — not buried in a sent log.

  3. Step 3

    Person or BE AI agent

    A teammate claims it by replying, or the BE AI agent drafts (or auto-sends) within the number’s rules.

  4. Step 4

    Close with an outcome

    Resolved, no reply needed, wrong number, spam. History stays with the company.

MMS

True MMS on the business 04

Inbound media lands in the shared inbox on the company 04 — quotes, damage photos, and receipts stay on the thread the desk already uses. More on MMS.

Wholesale & counter

Photos of stock and paperwork in the thread, not a link farm.
