Not trolling, the title says you are a rival to Twilio. What do you feel you offer that they don't, or why should an existing Twilio customer use MessageBird instead?



We are cheaper than Twilio in almost all countries including US. But price is not everything.

In terms of our strenghts (not sure how this relates to Twilio):

We have a direct-to-carrier strategy, most focussed on Europe & Asia. This ensures reliable and fast delivery. If you are a high volume text message customer we have global experience working for some of the most needy and security sensitive companies including banks & governments.


He wasn't kidding .005 vs .0075 USD cents per message and reviving messages is free unlike Twilio. Twilio also charges $1.00 a month for the number itself. I will be giving your service a try in the future sir.


We'd love to help you out with this especially because we are newer to the US - really looking for customer experiences- email me please and we can setup a demo account: robert@messagebird.com
