What Pronto is
Pronto is a communications app for teams on the go, including frontline workers. Individual and group chats include instant polls and read receipts, while one-to-one and group video meetings can start without links or advance scheduling. Announcements can be sent to lock screens, and messages can be translated into employees’ preferred languages. Files, photos and videos shared in chats are saved in a media library. Custom roles and permissions let business leaders control feature access by user role. Pronto supports web, Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and API access, with integrations for Canvas, Blackboard and Brightspace. Its Trust Center lists a SOC 2 Type 2 audit against the Security criteria and Texas DIR Level 2 certification, plus encryption, restricted product access, vulnerability management and incident response controls. API access is disabled by default and requires Pronto Support or an account representative to enable it. A free, no-obligation demo trial supports up to 100 users per account; Business pricing is based on user licenses and varies by employee count, locations and use case.
