★ 4/5 · Chatbots/Agents

Communication stack for AI agents: real phone numbers with voice, SMS, iMessage, and WhatsApp in one API — metered usage, MCP-ready, self-hosted or managed.

Pros

clear per-number and per-minute rates
iMessage + SMS + voice + WhatsApp
MCP and agent skill setup
Enterprise volume path.

Cons

Costs scale with call minutes and messaging
iMessage number tier is expensive ($250/mo)
you still need your own agent logic on top.

Cost

Pay-as-you-go: $3/number/month + metered usage; $5 free credit, no card. Calls from $0.13/min self-hosted or $0.22/min managed. US SMS $0.02/message; regional SMS to 200+ countries tiered. Phone + iMessage $250/mo. Enterprise custom volume rates.

Verdict

Best-in-class infra pick if your agent needs a real phone identity across voice and messaging without building a telecom stack.
