NumBuster! is a phone community that users can access via a mobile phone client and a Web application. Developed by NumBuster Ltd, it allows users to find contact details of any phone number, exchange information about numbers with other users and block calls and messages. The client is available for Android and Windows Phone.
NumBuster! was developed by NumBuster Ltd, a privately held company founded by Evgeny Gnutikov, Ilya Osipov and some others. The project was launched by Moscow Business School graduates on Android and as a Web site in February 2014. As of September 2014, it has more than 100 000 users in Russia and the CIS, where it was first launched. In July–August 2014, NumBuster! was accelerated in the biggest startup accelerator in France, NUMA Paris.
The service is a global telephone directory that has social and call-blocking functionality. It allows its users not only to find out the name of an unknown caller, whether it’s a person or a business, but also to rate and comment, thus adding more value to the service and helping other users in the community to get more information. Apart from that, users can block any phone number. An in-app IM and SMS chat are available from September 2014.
NumBuster! is available in 13 languages: English, Russian, Arabic, German, French, Chinese, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Polish, Ukrainian, Japanese and Korean.
Upon its release, NumBuster! gathered positive feedback from Russian bloggers and media, including a publication in a leading news web-site.
