Video in the thread, not behind a link.
Twenty seconds of the candidate to camera, landing inside the text itself. Txtra sends video, images, and files over RCS at full quality, falls back honestly where a handset can’t take it, and shows you the reach split before you commit.
▶0:22A paragraph asks for attention. Twenty seconds of the candidate to camera takes it. Every other texting tool treats media as an MMS afterthought, compressed, capped, and priced by surprise.
How Rich media works.
Attach and send
Video, image, or file, straight from the composer, caption and all. The sample ballot, the cure instructions, the volunteer packet, the twenty seconds to camera.
RCS carries it whole
Full quality, inside the thread, under the verified sender name. No compression, no thumbnail, no browser detour.
The fallback is honest
Handsets without RCS get MMS for images and a tap-to-watch link for video and files. The composer shows the split for your actual list before anything sends.
What you actually get.
The candidate in their hand
A paragraph asks for attention. Twenty seconds to camera takes it. This is the demo that makes RCS feel different from every text a voter has ever gotten.
Files that land in the thread
The sample ballot, the cure form, the volunteer shift packet, opened where the conversation lives. A voter holding their own ballot in the thread doesn’t need directions to a website.
The math before you commit
Images on fallback send as MMS and cost more segments. The composer shows the count and the price first, so the invoice never surprises the treasurer.
No fake full-quality claims
A platform that pretends every phone plays video sells you complaints. The reach split sits on the screen, RCS full quality on one side, the fallback link on the other, before you press send.
RCS first, honest everywhere else.
Video and files ride RCS whole. Images ride RCS whole and fall back as MMS with the segment math shown. Video and files fall back as a tap-to-watch link, since MMS caps them too hard to be worth sending. The reach split in the mock is illustrative. Live, the composer reads your list’s actual RCS coverage before you send.

Left or right, Txtra is the sender your carriers trust and your lawyers approve.
See it on your race.
Asked and answered.
Can I send video by political text?
Yes. Over RCS the video lands inside the thread at full quality, under the verified sender name. Handsets without RCS get a tap-to-watch link, and the composer shows you the split for your list before anything sends.
What files can a campaign send?
PDFs and documents. The sample ballot, the cure instructions, the volunteer shift packet. On RCS the file opens in the thread. On fallback the voter gets a link to it.
What does media cost per message?
Images on fallback handsets send as MMS and count as more segments. The composer shows the count and the price before you commit, so the treasurer never meets a surprise invoice.
