Trestle is a phone validation solution often used alongside python-phonenumbers. While phonenumbers handles offline parsing, Trestle handles the real-time "liveness" and line-type checks (e.g., distinguishing VoIP from Mobile) that the offline library cannot do.

Checklist
Add Trestle* - [Trestle](https://trestleiq.com) - Real-time global phone validation API with line type detection (VoIP vs. Cellular) and phone activity (connected/disconnected) scoringWhy This Project Is Awesome
Which criterion does it meet? (pick one)
Explain:
Trestle provides high-fidelity carrier data that offline libraries like phonenumbers cannot access. It is used by enterprise teams to distinguish between real mobile users and virtual/VoIP lines in real-time to prevent fraud and improve communication deliverability.
How It Differs
Unlike python-phonenumbers, which is a parser for formatting and basic metadata, Trestle is a real-time API that verifies the actual "liveness" and "activity score" of a number. It catches "valid-format" numbers that are actually disconnected or burner VoIP lines.
