Awaaz.De ("Give your voice") is a research-backed, revenue generating
application currently reaching tens of thousands through hundreds of
thousands of phone calls. Awaaz.De facilitates information sharing
amongst groups through interactive voice message boards, voice
broadcasts, and voice surveys, all available through normal phone
numbers. Organizations across India use Awaaz.De to communicate with
customers or beneficiaries who lack Internet and require a richer way
to engage than text. More at
