Compare Telnyx with the Competition

Competitors
Private network

Our private global IP network was purpose-built for real-time communications, so your calls are crystal clear and secure, with low latency.

Public internet

The internet wasn’t built for real-time communications, and it shows—with high latency, packet loss, and poor security.

Fully owned

We control our infrastructure, so we control routing, quality and traffic for high-quality calls and low post-dial delay.

Resellers

Using other providers’ servers and middlemen for routing and telephony leads to persistent routing and quality issues.

Sub-second response time

We use an edge-stack approach to route your data via the closest server to your application to deliver market-leading latency.

3+ second response times

Greater reliance on the public internet and less control over core communications functionality significantly increases latency.

Frequently Asked Questions

A voice API is a tool that software developers use to make and receive phone calls using an Application Programming Interface (API). A voice API connects internet-based applications to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN).
To get started, sign up for a Portal account, then follow the 4 remaining steps in our quickstart guide to create an application, buy a number, assign it to your app and create an outbound voice profile. Then, use our SDKs to start building.
Yes, you can use the Telnyx voice API to record calls using the record_start command. You’ll find code snippets to help you do this quickly and easily in our developer center.
Absolutely. Text-to-speech allows you to convert text to speech and play it back on the call. We leverage Amazon Polly to provide a conversational experience, available across 29 languages and accents. You can find out how to use the speak_text command in our developer center.
