5 Aug 2019

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Twilio SIGNAL -- RapidAPI, the world’s largest API Marketplace that helps developers find and connect to thousands of publicly available APIs, announced today that it has partnered with Twilio to add its Verify, Lookup, SMS, and Phone Numbers APIs to RapidAPI’s Marketplace. With the addition of Twilio’s APIs, it is easier than ever for developers using RapidAPI to integrate messaging, voice, and video into their web and mobile applications. As part of the partnership, RapidAPI has joined Twilio Build, a program comprised of a growing ecosystem of best-in-class partners focused on delivering applications and services that have an API-first, developer-first approach.

“RapidAPI provides the connective tissue for bringing thousands of APIs and microservices together, enabling developers to more easily find, connect to, and integrate the APIs they need for building applications, without duplicating efforts by building complex code that already exists,” said Iddo Gino, RapidAPI Founder and CEO. “By adding Twilio APIs to the thousands of APIs already available on the RapidAPI Marketplace, we are providing developers with a centralized location for all the API endpoints and code snippets they need to easily build diverse applications that include everything from SMS notifications to number verification. RapidAPI’s inclusion into the Twilio Build program underscores our commitment to bringing leading APIs to our rapidly growing marketplace.”

As part of the Twilio Build partnership program, RapidAPI will demonstrate Twilio’s APIs on the RapidAPI Marketplace in the Partner Expo at SIGNAL, Twilio’s annual customer and developer conference on August 6-7. The two companies will also continue to collaborate, bringing new APIs on to RapidAPI’s Marketplace while working together on new opportunities through the Twilio Build program.

“Twilio’s APIs have changed the way that companies across every industry build world-class engagement into their customer experience,” said Chetan Chaudhary, global VP of partners at Twilio. “By adding our core communications APIs to the RapidAPI Marketplace, we are making our scalable building blocks more accessible for developers and development teams that want to create new applications and solutions from scratch or add groundbreaking communications one feature at a time. We welcome RapidAPI to Twilio Build and look forward to further collaboration on the RapidAPI Marketplace.”

  • SMS: Twilio's Programmable SMS API helps developers add robust messaging capabilities to their applications.
