Twilio has gone all in on this technology, becoming the best and broadest communication solution available. To do this, it has acquired multiple businesses to bulk up its offering. Because of these acquisitions, investors assessing Twilio's worth should focus on organic revenue growth (this revenue excludes any acquisitions made in the past 12 months) rather than overall revenue. Twilio's management recognizes this discrepancy and conveniently reports this metric. In the second quarter, Twilio's organic revenue rose 33% year over year to $910 million.
