Open source client for a closed source backend.
Businesses aren't charities but man does this feel cynical to anyone else? Twilio is not a bad investment for any business, in my opinon -- they make very complicated things very simple and offer a lot of value. This feels like OSS-washing though, and I feel like I'm a mark -- "use our awesome open source stuff so we can pull you into our ecosystem".
