Summary

Twilio has announced lower prices for its US and select international call routes, with savings of up to 25% starting November 1st, compared to on-premise alternatives. This price drop is made possible by Twilio's growth in its developer base, which has doubled to 400,000 over the past year, executing over two billion communication API interactions a month. The company also recently deployed new Data-Driven Routing, allowing dynamic selection of high-quality and best-value routes with carriers worldwide. Additionally, Record, previously bundled into Twilio Voice, is now a pay-per-use feature, offering customers an average savings of 16% on US voice bills. These changes aim to provide more value to Twilio users while reducing the total cost of ownership.
