Why choose WIGGWIGG over SlyNumber?

Canadian phone numbers

SlyNumber doesn't offer Canadian numbers. WIGGWIGG provides real Canadian numbers with local area codes, essential if you're doing business in Canada.

Canadian company, Canadian laws

SlyNumber is a US company. WIGGWIGG is Canadian, subject to PIPEDA privacy laws, with a bilingual platform in English and French.

Built-in password manager

SlyNumber is just a phone number. WIGGWIGG combines phone numbers with a secure password manager, organized by identity. SlyNumber focuses purely on phone numbers.

Full web app

WIGGWIGG has a full web app for calls, texts, and password management from any browser. SlyNumber is mobile-only.

Real schedule, not a global mute button

SlyNumber's call control is a single global Do-Not-Disturb toggle. WIGGWIGG ships per-day-of-week business hours with separate active and inactive actions, multiple prioritized rules, and date-based holiday overrides, all encrypted at rest.

Up to five applicable checks

SlyNumber markets a manual block list. WIGGWIGG applies up to five inbound checks, depending on the channel and settings, and shows high-confidence warnings before you answer.

Why invest in WIGGWIGG?

If you need real mobile numbers with carrier-level compatibility, SlyNumber has an edge. But if you want Canadian numbers, a zero-knowledge encrypted password manager, and identity-based organization, WIGGWIGG is building that complete platform.

VoIP vs. real mobile numbers, and why it matters less than you think

SlyNumber's real mobile numbers work with more services today. WIGGWIGG's VoIP approach enables identity-level organization, where each number comes with its own encrypted password manager and contacts.

Sustainable by design

No outside investors setting the roadmap. WIGGWIGG grows at the pace its users support. Features ship because users want them, not because a board demands growth metrics.

Encryption that outlasts any policy

SlyNumber focuses on call privacy. WIGGWIGG uses zero-knowledge encryption for identity data: passwords, contacts, and personal details are encrypted on your device. Message and voicemail content protected by our current method is sealed on Canadian servers to the account communication key; a supported client opens it after sign-in and unlock. A small set retained from the private beta remains readable under our older server-side encryption until a separate re-sealing process.

Canadian-built for Canadian privacy laws

SlyNumber is a US company. WIGGWIGG is built in Quebec, with full English and French support. WIGGWIGG INC. is subject to Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA); what we store is in Canada. Telephone traffic still crosses our US carrier, as it does for any phone service.

Routing and spam protection as one decision

SlyNumber treats DND and call blocking as separate toggles. WIGGWIGG treats them as one decision: who reaches you, when, and through which check. Multiple prioritized business-hours rules work with up to five checks depending on the channel and your settings.
