Communication
Communication is a broader category covering tools that help teams and businesses talk to customers or each other, spanning chat, calling, video, and notification infrastructure that doesn't fit neatly into a narrower category. It includes both consumer-facing communication tools and the underlying platforms that power them for other businesses. Deals here often overlap with In-App Chat, Messaging API, and Business Phone, but are grouped under Communication when a tool spans multiple channels at once, such as combining calling, texting, and CRM syncing in a single product, or when its primary audience is general business communication rather than one narrow use case. A deal belongs here if communication between people, whether customers, teams, or support agents, is the central function of the product, and it doesn't fit more precisely into a narrower category like In-App Chat or Business Phone.
