Twilio announced this week that it was partnering with Amazon Web Services to help deliver SMS messages via Amazon’s Simple Notification Service (SNS). And while details remain scant, Twilio told TechCrunch that Amazon’s SNS will “leverage the benefits of Twilio’s Super Network.”

“Amazon Web Services truly embodies the spirit of iteration upon which Twilio was built,” Twilio CEO and co-founder Jeff Lawson said. “With this latest collaboration, we’re strengthening the communications ecosystem with scalable, efficient tools that ensure the best option for delivering a message is available.” AWS VP for Mobile and IoT Marco Argenti pointed to the importance of “efficient, scalable technology solutions” that help developers build great apps instead of simply “managing infrastructure.” He added that the two companies would “continue to work together to help empower developers to communicate with their users seamlessly across devices.”

This week’s announcement represents a continuation of Twilio’s relationship with Amazon and Amazon Web Services. Twilio has long used AWS to host its platform, and Amazon was one of the investors in Twilio’s $130 million Series E round last summer. Moreover, the news comes just days after Twilio’s successful initial public offering which saw its stock climb by more than 90% on its first day of trading last Thursday. Twilio trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol TWLO and closed at $28.79 on its opening day after being initially priced at $15 per share. Twilio’s market capitalization is $2.8 billion.

A specialist in cloud communications, Twilio’s technology enables developers to add voice, messaging, and video functionality to their mobile apps and web sites. Twilio demonstrated Authy One Touch at FinovateFall 2015, and presented its technology at FinDEVr 2015 in San Francisco later that year. The cloud communications company was founded in 2008, is headquartered in San Francisco, and has offices in New York, London, Hong Kong, Germany, Estonia, and Columbia. Last month, Twilio was named to the CNBC Disruptor 50 list for 2016 for its third consecutive year.

San Francisco-based, cloud-communication specialist Twilio is seeking to raise $100 million in an initial public offering. Twilio will trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker, TWLO. Underwriting the offering are:

• Goldman Sachs
• J.P. Morgan
• Allen & Company ,
• Pacific Crest Securities
• JMP Securities
• William Blair
• Canaccord Genuity

The impending fintech IPO has some wondering whether or not the news marks the end of a relatively quiet period for public offerings. Currently valued at more than $1 billion, Twilio has raised more than $230 million in funding to date. The pricing of the company’s shares has not been disclosed and the company is still not turning a profit. But with revenues of $166 million in 2015, more than 28,000 active customer accounts, and customers ranging from Uber and Coca-Cola to Home Depot and WhatsApp, Twilio hopes to impress investors with a range of solutions ranging from authentication technology to programmable voice, video, SMS, and wireless solutions.

Twilio’s SEC filing reveals revenues of $166 million for 2015 and $59 million in the three months ending March 31, 2016. The quarterly gain represented a boost of 78% year-over-year, while the annual sales figure represented a gain of 88% over 2014. Net losses also increased, growing 32% from $26.7 million to $35.4 million.

“Our goal is for Twilio to be in the toolkit of every software developer in the world,” the prospectus reads. “As of March 31, 2016, over 900,000 developer accounts had been registered on our platform.” The prospectus also lists the company’s key elements of the Twilio’s growth strategy, which include continued investment in technology, expanded focus on the enterprise, growing their developer community, and “selectively pursue acquisitions and strategic investments.” Note that in February 2015, Twilio purchased Authy, its first major acquisition, for an undisclosed sum.

Founded in 2012 and headquartered in San Francisco, Twilio demonstrated its Authy OneTouch authentication solution at FinovateFall 2015. The company is also a FinDEVr alum, having presented “Authy 2FA in 20 Minutes” at FinDEVr 2015, San Francisco.
