i suggested @surgeapi and the setup and onboarding for a phone number on it was like 10x easier that twilio and they say we expect to hear a response back in 48 hours amazing
stuck in twilio A2P registration hell is there a way to expedite this or are there better SMS providers?

Agent-optimized technical docs are all the rage right now. We recently re-did @surgeapi's docs and made them more agent-optimized. Their agent traffic has since exploded 4x.

Building an infrastructure startup means dealing with performance issues much faster than your typical SaaS startup. In the last 7 days we've fixed memory leaks, increased our database size, moved queries to read replicas, and now I'm optimizing queries. And it's a blast!

Surge is the shit! They responded to our support email in literally minutes, @dnsbty great work. Used twilio for years with my larger company but its been an absolute pain in the ass with text from your plants my new LLC. Surge got us hooked up in basically no time. At first this was going to be an interim solution, but it might just be our permanent!

Text messaging with AI is the next form factor to hit 1 billion users, I have 100% conviction on this. The fact that every AI company isn’t doing this with urgency is absurd.

For those using our embeddable inbox component, we just released pagination for the conversations list. Many of you won't notice much difference, but for some accounts with 10k+ open conversations, this decreases load times by an order of magnitude or more.

I've heard this story several times and it's a large part of why I'm building @surgeapi. We always talk about the easy onboarding and simple integration, but excellent customer experience will always be at the center of what we do.

When it comes to API design, updates seem to be the least consistent across different APIs. You want to update a contact's email while leaving their name, email, and phone number all the same. Which endpoint are you hitting? Examples in the thread 🧵
6% POST /contacts/123
38% PUT /contacts/123
56% PATCH /contacts/123
