SAN JOSE, Calif. – Twist Broadband, a new internet service powered by Sail Internet, announces its launch in the San Jose, Santa Clara, and Milpitas areas, increasing community connectivity. Twist will be available to about 50,000 households on October 1 and will reach 100,000 or more by November.

A New Choice for San Jose: Break Free from the Status Quo

In San Jose, many households are restricted to a single fast broadband provider. Broadband monopolies saddle residents with high prices, poor service, and unreliable connections. Traditional solutions, like fiber, can be expensive and slow to install, disrupting communities while leaving many households without a choice of internet providers.

“At Twist, our goal is to provide customers with a new and better choice for internet,” explained CEO and Co-Founder Jonathan Kini. “We are challenging the status quo to give consumers the freedom to select a service that truly meets their needs and expectations. Our objective is to offer a connection experience that is accessible, affordable, and reliable.”

By harnessing cutting-edge wireless technology, Twist delivers gigabit-speed broadband without the need for disruptive and costly infrastructure. Twist’s city-wide network ensures that San Jose residents can enjoy reliable high-speed internet, with Wi-Fi coverage that reaches every room of the home.

Affordable, Transparent, and Customer-Centric

Twist is committed to providing every home with dependable internet service at a fair price. Offerings include everyday low pricing, unlimited data, whole-home Wi-Fi included with the price of service, and no hidden fees or contracts. Prioritizing exceptional customer support means San Jose residents will have a smooth and stress-free experience when switching to Twist’s service from day one.

To enable Twist to disrupt San Jose’s internet market, Sail is providing infrastructure and resources that have allowed the companies to set up a metro-wide network in record time.

Sail Internet: The Power Behind Twist’s Innovation

To accelerate its gigabit-speed internet service in San Jose, Twist is proud to partner with Sail Internet, a Bay Area internet service leader known for its transparent and customer-focused approach.

Sail Internet has been recognized as a top-rated ISP in the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley, earning accolades like the 2024 Neighborhood Fave from Nextdoor users. To enable Twist to disrupt the San Jose internet status quo and provide a better choice to residents, Sail is providing infrastructure and resources that have allowed our companies to stand up a metro-wide network in record time.

“Sail Internet is proud to partner with Twist to expand a better choice for internet to San Jose”, said Cardi Prinzi, Sail Internet’s CEO. “As a long-time internet provider to Bay Area residents and businesses, Sail shares Twist’s vision to earn customers’ loyalty through fair pricing and reliable service.”

Prinzi added that Sail was able to stand up the San Jose network in a matter of weeks leveraging the latest wireless technology from Tarana Wireless and other partners. “We can blanket a metro with gigabit speeds and quality coverage in a fraction of the time it takes to deploy fiber or cable,” he said.

In short, the answer is yes. In today’s digital world, having fast and reliable internet is crucial. As remote work, online learning, and streaming become everyday needs, the demand for better internet has grown exponentially over the last decade.

Fiber internet boosts home value by delivering the gigabit speeds consumers crave. Properties equipped with this cutting-edge technology appeal strongly to buyers, often commanding higher prices. Whether you’re planning to sell soon or making a long-term investment, upgrading to fiber is a smart move that future-proofs your home’s connectivity and meets modern digital demands.

The Growing Demand for Fiber Internet

High-speed internet is now a must-have in the real estate market. Homes with Gigabit speed internet can sell for up to 3.1% more than homes without it, says the Fiber Broadband Association. To put this into perspective, the median home price in the Bay Area as of May 31, 2024, is $1,183,272 (according to Zillow.com). This statistic implies that having a Gigabit internet connection could increase a home’s value by approximately $36,681!

Several factors drive this higher value:

  • Remote Work: The COVID-19 pandemic has made remote work more common. Many people now want homes with fast and reliable internet to stay productive.
  • Smart Home Devices: IoT gadgets like smart cameras and thermostats need strong internet connections. Gigabit internet supports these devices well, making homes more appealing to tech-savvy buyers.
  • Streaming and Entertainment: Many people are moving from cable TV to streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. Homes with Gigabit internet offer a better streaming experience.
  • Online Education: More schools offer online courses, and homeschooling is becoming more popular. Families need reliable internet for their children’s education.
