Summary

Menuism.com is a personal dining guide that allows users to find restaurants and share their favorite dining experiences with friends. The company recently built a simple "send-to-phone" feature in just hours using Twilio, a cloud communication platform. This was made possible by the ease of use of Twilio's API and SDKs, which allowed Menuism.com to quickly develop a bot that could send text messages to diners at restaurants. By leveraging Twilio's resources and documentation, including APIs, sample code, and tutorials, Menuism.com was able to successfully integrate this feature into their platform in a short amount of time.
