I'm moving forward with Twilio. I don't like that there's no easy way to respond to messages from their dashboard, and it sounds like I'll have to wait a few days before using it which kinda throws a wrench in my plans, but otherwise it's easy to use. Thanks for the recs!

I like baking /goodbread and building apps on web3 protocols. DevRel @ ENS Labs. gregskril.com

I think the Twilio competitor to arise is the one who figures out how to streamline A2P compliance

Not sure it's a super "hard" problem, but Twilio very clearly hasn't found a way to make it feel like a natural piece of their models/abstractions (which were already pretty messy). Relationship between an account, subaccounts, campaigns, etc and A2P verification is both 1:1 (my simple org should really just get A2P verified once and apply to everything I communicate), and many:many (my subaccounts are separate businesses and campaigns are separate business units and should all get A2P verified independently).

What’s A2P compliance and why is it hard?
