GhostCodes is the first of many innovations that will come out of Softway. Frank Danna

GhostCodes is a free mobile application that gives Snapchat users the ability to create profiles and find people to follow. Since its debut this year at SXSW 2016, where Mazda called it “one of the most innovative apps at the festival,” GhostCodes has quickly grown in user base to become the single most influential discovery app for Snapchat.
GhostCodes is the brainchild of Frank Danna and Hunter Harrison, Social Strategy Directors at Softway, an agency based in Houston, TX. Since the duo works daily with Softway clients to build strategic plans, create original content, and launch campaigns on social platforms like Snapchat, it was only natural that they would identify an opportunity to innovate and enhance the platform. “As we became more and more ingrained inside Snapchat, we realized that there was no good way to find people to follow,” Harrison says. “That’s when we decided to build GhostCodes.”
To help make the dream of getting Ghostcodes into the hands of millions of users, Danna and Harrison worked closely with Softway’s President, Mohammad Anwar, to map out a release strategy, create a legal entity, and secure necessary resources. Currently, the Ghostcodes team at Softway is growing by the day with a stellar roster of UX designers, Visual Designers, Writers, Front End Developers, Back End Developers, Strategists, and Marketing Coordinators. Anwar notes, “When Frank and Hunter approached me about GhostCodes, I knew Softway had to go all in. We have an incredible team that’s creating content for brands on social media and pushing what’s possible on emerging platforms—we’re putting our whole team behind GhostCodes and it’s paying off.”
Danna adds, “I think it’s incredible to have your colleagues and your company help you bring a dream to life. GhostCodes is the first of many innovations that will come out of Softway.”
Under the leadership of Danna and Harrison and with support from the Softway team, GhostCodes is on course to shatter records and eclipse all expectations, garnering accolades from users, bloggers, and influencers throughout the industry.
