CPaaS
Plivo
Developer-first SMS, voice and verification APIs with published pricing and a lean feature set.
Core SMS, voice and verification APIs with published per-country rates.
Covers the core of the category — send, receive, call, verify — without the breadth of full-suite platforms. That is a feature when the requirement is narrow and the team is technical.
Where it shines
- Simple APIs and readable pricing

Something is listed only when it can be checked. A connection we could not confirm is left off, and Find providers then credits the API at half weight.
