- AI Journey AI / Pro AI (AI-generated send timing and copy)
- Custom Audience Manager (advanced segmentation)
- A/B testing built into campaign builder
- Two-way SMS at scale
- A2P 10DLC fully managed
- Short code provisioning included on most plans
- Dedicated CSM, copy support, strategy consults

## Pricing

- Custom contracts; typically $1K–$10K+/mo platform fee + per-send fees
- Annual contracts standard
- Pricing rarely makes sense for <50K active SMS subscribers
- Negotiable based on volume and tier

## When to Use

- Mid-market+ DTC brand (50K+ active SMS subscribers, $5M+/yr revenue)
- Want dedicated CSM and copy support, not just tooling
- Need concierge two-way SMS at scale
- Multi-channel ecom team that wants single-pane SMS-first platform
- Want short code included rather than separately leased
- Identity resolution / cross-device matching matters

## When NOT to Use

- Smaller brands — too expensive, overkill
- Already on Klaviyo and SMS is secondary — Klaviyo SMS is simpler
- Shopify-only and want depth — Postscript is more Shopify-native
- Custom platform / B2B SaaS — Twilio

## Relevant Skills

- sms
- emails (run alongside)
- churn-prevention
- customer-research (identity resolution data)
