Complete Twilio to Airbase Integration Guide with AI Automation
1. Twilio + Airbase Integration: The Complete Automation Guide
Businesses lose 20-30% of productivity to manual data transfers between systems like Twilio and Airbase. Integrating these platforms unlocks real-time automation, eliminating errors and accelerating workflows.
Why This Integration Matters:
Twilio (communications) and Airbase (spend management) handle critical but disconnected workflows
Manual data entry between systems creates delays, inaccuracies, and compliance risks
73% of finance teams report month-end close delays due to disjointed systems
Autonoly’s AI-powered integration solves these challenges by:
1. Automating data sync between Twilio call/SMS logs and Airbase expense reports
2. Applying smart transformations (e.g., converting call durations to billable costs)
3. Enforcing compliance with automated audit trails
Business Outcomes Achieved:
87% faster expense reconciliation
100% accurate communication cost tracking
360° visibility into operational spend
2. Understanding Twilio and Airbase: Integration Fundamentals
