Summary

Anish Kahnzode, a developer, built an SMS-based live voting system for a local non-profit's singing competition in under three weeks using Twilio's scalable platform and customizability. The app handled over 5,500 SMS requests per night, with no single SMS dropped, and displayed real-time voting results on stage. Anish's rapid prototyping and use of Volt DB's database were key to the system's success. He is now looking to bring the app to other nonprofits to help them host similar events.
