What each one does differently

TextUs

$299/mo API

Why it comes up: Recruiting SMS with a more established agency footprint.

Heymarket

$49/user/mo API

Why it comes up: Shared business texting if you also message customers, not just candidates.

Stands out: Published per-user prices, a shared inbox with phone numbers per user, and SMS, email, WhatsApp and RCS in one place.

Watch out: Messages cost extra through credit bundles (1,000 credits is $30/mo), 10DLC compliance adds $10/mo per campaign, and the API starts on Pro.

Best for

Support and sales teams texting from one inbox
Recruiters who need a shared number for candidates
Teams that want HubSpot sync on the entry plan

Hourly and high-volume talent teams
Teams nurturing past applicants over SMS
Enterprise desks re-engaging their own database
