Media reports note that unlike other companies pursuing OTT messaging technology, Anam focuses on secure SS7 and SMS technology. Among its offerings are a patented home routing system that "enables mobile operators to protect their subscribers from SPAM messaging", and "an enhanced revenue stream, for mobile operators, that is emerging from A2P SMS".

O'Sullivan entered the telecommunications industry in 1995, working for Aldiscon first in marketing and later in bid management, project management, and account management. Although she lacked qualifications in the IT industry, she applied herself to learning on the job. Following Aldiscon's acquisition by Logica in 1997, she was assigned to the UK market.
