CLUSTER DESKTOP-GAME-TRACKS · 24 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-08-13

Gamer productivity and tracking apps

This cluster comprises desktop applications that help gamers monitor play time, complete in-game tasks, and track buff or debuff statuses, with reminders and floating overlays. The dated entry history is too thin to read a shape from, with only three dated entries before the index start, indicating the cluster predates the index or its members are undated. On traction, digitrace leads with four stars, while the other two members each have one star.

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.
