The service is aimed at schools, hospitals, government agencies, businesses, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), providing a tool for sending reliable, large-scale text messages to thousands of recipients simultaneously.
With communication playing an increasingly vital role in institutional operations—particularly in areas with limited internet access—HLU offers a timely and practical solution tailored to Liberia’s unique digital landscape.
The platform enables users to send SMS messages through either a simple web interface or a secure API integration, allowing both manual and automated messaging options. This dual approach caters to organizations with varying technical capabilities.
HLU is fully optimized for Liberian mobile networks and does not require internet connectivity on the recipient’s end, ensuring that messages reach even the most remote parts of the country. This makes the platform especially effective for nationwide outreach in health, education, public safety, and development initiatives.
The service supports a wide range of use cases, including school closures and updates, healthcare alerts, appointment reminders, billing notifications, internal announcements, and event promotions.
Designed for ease of use, HLU requires no advanced technical skills, making it accessible to administrators, managers, and communication officers across sectors.
For institutions with IT teams and developers, HLU offers a secure, well-documented SMS API that can be integrated into existing digital systems to automate workflows and real-time notifications.
This functionality is particularly useful for banks, logistics companies, and service-based organizations that rely on rapid, consistent communication with clients or staff.
Additional features include real-time delivery tracking, dedicated customer support, and multiple pricing options to suit institutions of all sizes. According to Setuup, these features are part of its broader mission to provide dependable, local technology solutions for Liberian organizations looking to modernize communication without relying on costly or foreign-built tools.
“The launch of HLU is a major step forward in bridging communication gaps for Liberian institutions,” said a Setuup spokesperson. “We are committed to creating tools that work seamlessly within the Liberian context and provide real impact in how organizations reach their stakeholders.”
HLU is now live and available for use. Institutions interested in using the service can access more information or create accounts at setuup.io or directly at hlu.setuup.io.
The launch of HLU reinforces Setuup’s growing presence in Liberia’s tech sector and underscores the importance of accessible, efficient communication tools in the country’s development and institutional management efforts.
