I don't think SMS senders can actually tell the difference between Google Voice and other VoIP providers.

- quesera 1y agoTwilio has a lookup API, which returns the subscriber name and carrier. Here's an example response (subscriber name redacted): { "data": { "name": "LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME", "line_provider": "Google/Bandwidth.com (SVR)", "carrier": "Bandwidth.com", "line_type": "landline" } }
- lxgr 1y agoAh, I always assumed Google uses Bandwidth.com completely transparently – I wasn't aware there's a separate level of "line provider" look-up available. Thank you!
