AgentMessage is an SMS API for AI agents from Y3 Labs LLC. It is a registered Campaign Service Provider on Bandwidth's network and is built for one-to-one conversations rather than bulk sends. iMessage is sold as an add-on through the same API. The service is in beta: new signups are paused behind a waitlist, and existing accounts keep working.
Pay as you go with a $5 starting credit and no platform fee: $0.94 per number a month, $0.0078 per SMS segment in either direction and $0.02 per MMS, with carrier and 10DLC registry fees passed through at cost. The iMessage add-on is $150 per line a month with no per-message cost and up to 4,000 messages a day per line. Enterprise volume pricing starts at $0.0060 per segment.
Both offer iMessage with SMS fallback. Linq also falls back to RCS and documents group chats, reactions and other iMessage features in its API; AgentMessage's API reference covers SMS and MMS only, and its iMessage lines can only message people who texted first. Linq's Pro plan is a flat fee from $260 a month, while AgentMessage bills SMS per segment and iMessage per line. Linq reports SOC 2 Type II; AgentMessage's DPA says it has not completed a SOC 2 examination.
Teams building AI agents that hold one-to-one SMS conversations in the US and want 10DLC registration and consent handling built in, once signups reopen.
AgentMessage supports 19 of the 77 features compared on Linq Alternatives.
