What are the best Twilio Lookup alternatives for carrier and line type data?
1Lookup returns the carrier and line type for 1 credit on a US or Canada number, $0.00495 on the Starter plan, against $0.008 a request for Twilio's line type package (read 30 October 2026). It also answers Twilio Lookup v2 requests, so you can switch by changing one base URL and one key.

- Keep the Fields parameter, your account SID as the username and the JSON your code already reads.
- Pay 1 credit for carrier and line type on a US or Canada number and 3 credits elsewhere.
