CLUSTER SHARED-EMAIL-TEAMS · 17 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2015-08-06
Team shared inbox apps
This cluster consists of shared-inbox and team communication apps that unify customer conversations from email, chat, messaging platforms, and sometimes calls into collaborative workspaces. Dated entries before the index start show a steady, low-monthly cadence from August 2015 through July 2026, with one entry in most listed months, indicating a long-running but consistent trickle of new products rather than any concentrated period. Traction leaders by activity signal are Hiver Omni for Email, Quo (formerly OpenPhone), and Missive - Email, Chat & Tasks, though all show zero stars in the given data.
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.
