Abstract

A text communication management system is provided that receives, analyzes, and enforces recipient actions regarding phone-based text communications. The text communication management system can obtain recipient action data regarding a recipient's action with respect to a particular text communication, and enforce the recipient action with respect to future text communications. The management system can also or alternatively analyze the recipient action data in connection with recipient action data from multiple other recipients to generate a model for use in determining whether future phone-based text communications should be permitted, determining the likelihood that such communications will cause recipients to opt-out, and the like. Third parties, such as phone service carriers and text communication originating entities, may access the management system via an application programming interface ('API') to submit data regarding recipient actions, initiate analysis of a potential text communication using the model, and the like.
