Bring your own Integration or pay as you go: the tradeoff in one rule.
The two plans
Every feature ships on both plans: screening, caching, keys, team, the lot. The only difference is whose Twilio runs the lookups and how you pay.
- Bring your own Integration: $5 a month flat. Lookups run on your own Twilio credentials, and Twilio bills you directly per lookup at its Lookup rates. Comes with a 14-day free trial.
- Pay as you go: $0.010 per ping from a prepaid balance on the platform's Twilio. No Twilio account needed, no subscription. Opening top-up is $20; later top-ups start at $5.
- Both plans take a card, and switching later loses nothing: your data, keys, and history stay put.
The decision rule
- Rough math: at $0.010 a ping, $5 buys 500 pings. If your Twilio lookup costs are low, bring your own integration wins above roughly 600 pings a month.
- Trying callersift out, or running low volume? Pay as you go: no Twilio account to set up, no monthly fee, and a $20 balance screens a lot of calls (repeat callers hit the cache and cost nothing).
- Already running Twilio, or screening thousands of calls a month? Bring your own Integration: the flat $5 plus your negotiated Twilio rates beats per-ping pricing at volume.
Whichever you pick, balance and billing hiccups never block screening: alerts warn, the fail-open design keeps answering.
