Plivo - SMS API

Twilio killer on steroids.

Plivo - SMS API launched on July 13, 2014 with 88 votes, #427 of 2,263 launches that month and more than 50% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 12 years on.

What it does

From no-code builders for teams to flexible APIs for developers, deploy voice agents that actually sound human.

From no-code agent builder to carrier-grade telephony, deploy agents that sound human, on transparent per-minute pricing. A real recorded phone call answered by a Plivo voice agent at a dental clinic, shown with its transcript lighting up word by word. The caller asks to reschedule a Friday cleaning; the agent looks up the booking, checks availability, books a new slot, and sends a confirmation text, calling four tools along the way. Press play to hear the recording. Give your LiveKit agent a real phone number over SIP trunking. Bring LiveKit or Pipecat, or build straight on our voice APIs, on Plivo's low-latency, carrier-grade telephony. Build, test, and deploy omni-channel AI agents in…from plivo.com

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
