I started with Retell AI, then tried ElevenLabs and Twilio, but the latency was too high for a phone agent. With Telnyx, voice AI and telephony run on the same infrastructure, so responses were incredibly fast. That speed sold me.

Use your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) to migrate from Twilio to Telnyx easily. The Telnyx Twilio Migration skill runs a complete 6-phase migration: discovery, planning, setup, code migration, validation, and cleanup. Available for Python, JavaScript, Go, Java, and Ruby.
Most "AI voice platforms" stitch together best-in-class vendors, but that's the problem. When anything breaks, you open 5 support tickets, and wait.
Telnyx owns and operates the entire stack, from carrier network to inference, to voices.
One system. One team. No finger pointing.
Built for bots that talk to humans.
Get started with your migration in just a few minutes.
Telnyx is the better Twilio alternative for several reasons: we own and operate our carrier network as a licensed carrier, our pricing is transparent and typically 40-60% lower, our AI voice stack is built natively on the same network, and our 24/7 support is included at no extra cost. One platform, one bill, one team.
