In this post, we’ll break down the four pillars of Signal House—a marketing-friendly alternative to Twilio that was built from firsthand experience with their pain points—and show you how we’re helping SaaS platforms, CRMs, and marketing teams deliver more messages, save more money, and get better support than ever before 🙌

💡 The Backstory: From Frustration to Innovation

Before Signal House existed, we ran a marketing-centric CRM that relied heavily on Twilio for A2P messaging 🤮

It didn’t take long before Twilio’s internal filters started blocking up to 60% of our marketing messages. A2P, 10DLC approvals dragged on for weeks (sometimes months) with little feedback or transparency 😡

It nearly ruined our business.

So we made a decision:
👉 We fired Twilio ✅
👉 We got as close to the carriers as possible ✅
👉 We built the messaging platform we wished existed ✅

That’s how Signal House was born 🐣

🧱 The Four 4️⃣ Pillars of Signal House

Here’s how we’re different — and why thousands of businesses are switching to Signal House in 2025 👇

1️⃣ Deliverability That Actually Delivers

At Signal House, we don’t filter out legitimate marketing messages.

✅ Higher Deliverability: You’ll see better performance than Twilio because we send directly through carrier partners with clean, compliant routing
✅ Smart Filtering: We block illegal content (SHAFT, phishing, etc.) — not everyday marketing messages
✅ Contextual Intelligence: Messages like “Mr. Weed, your appointment is confirmed” won’t get flagged here

Your campaigns reach customers — not carrier spam folders.

2️⃣ A2P, 10DLC Approvals in 48 Hours (Guaranteed)

If you’ve ever waited weeks for Twilio approvals, you’ll love this 🤯

At Signal House:
⚡ 48-hour guaranteed campaign reviews
⚙️ First-time approval rate: 99.9%
🧩 Built-in website generator for compliant opt-ins and consent tracking

We also keep your landing pages compliant automatically — so when carrier rules change, you stay covered 😎

Time to value? Practically zero 😮‍💨

3️⃣ Transparent Pricing That Saves You Money 💰

Twilio starts at $0.0083 per message (in + out)
Signal House starts at $0.0075 for outbound only — no inbound or failed-message fees

💡 No hidden margins:
We don’t mark up 10DLC or A2P registrations

💡 Volume discounts:
500K messages/month = $0.0050
1M+ messages/month = $0.0045

You’ll pay less and deliver more — all while getting faster onboarding and better support 💪

4️⃣ Real Human Support (Without the 8% Tax) 💬

Twilio charges 8% of your monthly spend for a Slack support channel — and you’ll still wait days for help 😩

Signal House flips that model:
💬 Instant in-app chat: 1-minute response time
🤝 Dedicated Slack channel: Free for customers spending $2.5K+/mo
👨‍💻 Direct dev & strategy access: Engineers and founders (including me!) join your workspace
📊 Weekly delivery reports + strategy calls

We don’t just fix problems — we help you grow 💐

🔁 Seamless Twilio Migration

Already approved on Twilio? No problem.

We’ll transfer your 10DLC campaigns directly into Signal House — no re-registration, no new fees, no downtime 📈

You’ll keep your campaigns, customers, and continuity — just with better pricing, faster support, and higher deliverability 🔥

🌐 Built for Modern Messaging

Signal House isn’t just about SMS 👇
We’re expanding into toll-free, short codes, RCS, Viber, and WhatsApp in early 2026 👀

Whatever channel your customers use, we’ll help you connect — seamlessly and compliantly ✅

📈 The Bottom Line

The four pillars of Signal House are simple but powerful:

💥 Deliverability — your messages actually reach people
⚡ Approval Speed — go live in 48 hours
💰 Cost — transparent pricing with no nonsense fees
💬 Support — real humans, real strategy, real growth

If you’re tired of Twilio’s slow support, high costs, and constant filters, it’s time for a better way.
