nativeMsg: nativeMsg overhauled its pricing model from message-volume tiers to subscriber-count tiers
What happened
Between the Aug 24, 2026 and Aug 31, 2026 captures of nativeMsg's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: nativeMsg overhauled its pricing model from message-volume tiers to subscriber-count tiers. Starter dropped from $1,500/mo (25,000 messages included) to $199/mo (1,000 subscribers, 3,500 messages, 500 conversations, 3 seats). Growth/Scale/Enterprise tiers were similarly re-priced and re-metered, and the 'Scale' tier was renamed 'Pro'. Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. Pulse's latest capture (Oct 26, 2026) lists Launch at $349, Scale at $1,500 and Additional Branded Agent at $99.
It lands 49 days after nativeMsg's previous change, "nativeMsg: public self-serve pricing revealed ($1,500-$25K+/mo)" (Jul 13, 2026). nativeMsg has been tracked since 2026-03-01.
In the same window Twilio, Plivo, Telnyx, Bird and Google Cloud also changed their Marketing & Content pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
