Ghosted is an anonymous dating service application developed rapidly by a team unfamiliar with telecom APIs, which incorporates features like SMS, MMS, and voice calling through various telecom providers. The app assigns anonymous phone numbers to users to ensure their privacy while facilitating connections. It aims to address anonymity as a major pitfall of existing dating apps and showcases its functionalities through a live demonstration.

2. What is Ghosted?
▪ Ghosted is an anonymous dating service application that allows users to connect
together to form relationships.
▪ In less than 24 hours, we created Ghosted and we were able to incorporate
anonymous SMS, MMS, and Voice Calling features by randomly generating a
number in our database servers.
▪ Every member on our team had no knowledge base on Telecom APIs and this
was an entirely new experience for us.

3. Telecom APIs Utilized
▪ VoIP Innovations
▪ All female users are assigned an anonymous number for SMS through the VoIP API.
▪ Telnyx
▪ All male users are assigned an anonymous number for SMS through the Telnyx API.
▪ Flowroute
▪ Both users are assigned an anonymous number for MMS through the Flowroute API.
▪ Avaya/Zang
▪ Both users are assigned an anonymous number for Voice Calling through the Avaya/Zang API.
The results of this method is to successfully incorporate all Telecom APIs and synchronize
them into a functional application, while also providing anonymity for both end users.
