CLUSTER CUSTOMER-LIVE-MOBILE · 6 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2012-08-07
Live chat support apps
This cluster comprises mobile and web applications centered on live chat and customer support, including video chat, agent collaboration, and AI chatbot management. Five dated entries appear sporadically between August 2012 and August 2023, with three in 2016, suggesting no sustained growth pattern. The leading product by traction is chat-sxi-public, which has a 5-star activity signal, while Apple Support and Channel Works have 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
