I don't think they know what Twilio is.

The article has close to zero content about the company, from reading Chute's own website it looks like it provides an API service for managing rich-media UGC content.

Ha, it's an interesting point actually. I'm pretty amazed at the wonderful job Twillio has done establishing itself as the "normal" definition of API and platform.

Obviously, they're not synonymous, but seems a convenient enough of a hook I guess.

Then again, it's main TC that opts for that analogy.
