RCS as a true centerpiece of your strategy - not RCS as an afterthought.

All-in-one platforms like Klaviyo's are scrambling to keep up with the biggest thing happening in North American mobile messaging in over a decade: RCS.

Vibes made it a centerpiece of our mobile-first platform from day one, and we’re uniquely well-positioned to rapidly launch and manage revenue-generating RCS campaigns today. We've launched more RCS agents than any other direct connect aggregator.

The only mobile engagement platform with direct carrier connections.

Vibes' DNA is messaging, and our direct carrier connections as the last independent Tier 1 aggregator in North America ensures messages take the absolute fastest, most compliant path from businesses to the customers they're communicating with.

Unlike all-in-one marketing software, Vibes is built only for mobile, so Vibes customers see 25% lower churn of their SMS/RCS subscriber base than those using other platforms.

Klaviyo is great for ecommerce retailers bundling email & SMS. Vibes is for brands who prioritize mobile engagement.

If you're a small to mid-sized ecommerce brand who gives email and SMS equal weight, and tech stack consolidation is your top priority, Klaviyo could be a good fit for you.

But if it’s about more than "checking the box" on SMS for you, consider an SMS & RCS-first marketing platform that’s truly specialized in mobile, and invests its innovation dollars accordingly.

Every step of the way, the Vibes team has been extremely thoughtful, careful, caring, and problem-solving. There are things I know I could do in the platform that the Vibes team just takes care of sometimes, and I'm like, okay, thank you! The people at Vibes make things easier and they've been around the block a time or two. It’s good to work with experienced pros.
