Migrate from Twilio in 5 Lines

Replace Twilio with SMSRoute — no KYC, no business verification, no 10DLC:

# Before (Twilio)
from twilio.rest import Client
client = Client(account_sid, auth_token)
client.messages.create(to="+15551234567", from_="+15559876543", body="Hello")

# After (SMSRoute)
import requests
requests.post("https://api.smsroute.cc/sms/send",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['SMSROUTE_API_KEY']}"},
    json={"to": "+15551234567", "from": "INFO", "message": "Hello"})

No account SID, no phone number purchase, no identity verification. See the full Twilio alternative guide.
