Built on experience. Inspired by people. Created to connect.

Great communication has always been at the heart of what we do. Our story began decades ago with Iron Medical Systems (IMS), where we built technology to support healthcare organizations. Along the way, we learned that while security, reliability, and innovation are essential, what matters most is the people who depend on them.

Why we started

It's always been about people.

Over the years, we began to recognize that the challenges of keeping people connected weren't limited to healthcare. Whether bringing family and friends together for a wedding, organizing a special event, or welcoming guests to a vacation rental, the need was always the same: a simple, personal way to keep everyone informed and connected.

That's what inspired us to create Foxie. We wanted to take everything we'd learned over the years and use it to make everyday communication easier, more meaningful, and a little less stressful. Because behind every message is a person, and behind every occasion is something that matters to someone.

Our technology may have evolved, but our commitment has never changed.

How we work

Real people. Personal service.

At Foxie, we believe great technology should make life easier, not more complicated. That's why we combine intelligent communication solutions with a personal, hands-on approach to helping our customers succeed. From your first demo to getting your dashboard up and running, our team is here to guide you every step of the way. We take the time to understand your needs, simplify the setup process, and help you get the most out of Foxie. Because even in a world powered by automation, personal relationships still matter to us.

Who we are

Our core values.

  • Show up for life

    Have passion for life, family, and work. Be awake and available when life, teammates and clients call.

  • Do it now

    Both time and opportunity are fleeting. Don’t allow inaction to create regret.

  • Be courageous

    Be willing to take chances. Willing to risk. Willing to fail. Innovation is in our DNA. Listen to your heart.

  • Do what you say you’re going to do

    Live in integrity. Trust others and be trustworthy. Our word is our bond, regardless of how others behave. Communicate intentions honestly and live up to them.

  • Take pride in actions and behavior

    Make sure that we can be proud and comfortable with what we’ve said and done, whether anyone is watching or not.

  • Drag it out into the light

    Be willing to look at challenges openly and with your teammates. Don’t allow feelings to live in the shadows. Remember to be tough on the challenges and easy on the people.

  • Forgive and move on

    Once a challenge has been resolved, let it go. If you can’t yet, then it’s not resolved.

  • Honor why we exist

    Remember why we are together. Remember whom we serve. Remember that every action can either benefit or harm our mission.

  • Enjoy and bring joy to our team

    Keep and share a sense of humor. Don’t miss an opportunity to create a smile. There will always be time for more business, but never enough time to enjoy each other.

Let's make communication easier. Together.
