Comparison
Text Request pricing vs Signilio for sales teams
Published pricing, what a plan includes, the fees that show up later, and the shared inbox, side by side. Checked September 25, 2026.
The short answer
Text Request is a two-way texting inbox for small businesses with a fair headline: $59 a month for 1,000 texts, unlimited users, and 10DLC filed for you. Between that and the $2,750 top plan the ladder is published only as an image, the overage rate is not stated, and some features people expect, scheduled messages and keywords, are paid add-ons. Signilio publishes all three plans, from $34.99 a month for 1,000 texts to $189.99 for 12,000, with scheduling and keyword replies on every plan. The estimator can price only the two rungs Text Request states in text, so treat it as a floor and a ceiling.
