SaaS startups have become the darling of Venture Capital investors, especially in the SMS industry. Over the past decade, software has proverbially “eaten the world” and SaaS companies have scaled to become unicorn corporations in staggering amounts of time.

In this article, we are examining 3 VC funded SaaS startups in the SMS industry.

Telgorithm

Telgorithm is a messaging platform that allows businesses (particularly SaaS providers) to build messaging services into their applications while ensuring compliance and message deliverability.
