Interesting, how are you handling A2P?

Curious, what was the worst thing about Twilio?

FYI I went straight for api examples, and the docs page looks like a placeholder https://docs.postack.dev/quickstart

Absolutely, I get the concern about the docs looking like a placeholder. We're putting a lot of effort into crafting the best SDKs for major languages, so for now, the most comprehensive guide is at https://docs.postack.dev/api-reference/introduction.

Regarding A2P messaging, it's pretty standard: create your brand and campaigns, typically with a 72-hour turnaround. We're streamlining compliance by auto-generating legal documents, webform screenshots using templates, and leveraging ChatGPT to preemptively fix any issues before they reach upstream carriers. It's all about making the process as smooth as possible for you.

On Twilio: It took me a staggering three weeks just to get my business profile reviewed and approved, followed by another 2-3 weeks of back-and-forth communication to get my campaign off the ground. It was a real test of patience.
Not meant as a nitpick but lots of links to docs are "dead" or redirect to that placeholder. quick example: on your home page both compliance links go nowhere.
Compliance pages are still WIP. Just fixed other links. Thanks for help.
