3-0The Panel's Take
Stream provides APIs for in-app chat and activity feeds with pre-built UI components. Powers chat in thousands of apps with moderation, threads, and reactions.
The reviews
“The most complete chat API with pre-built React, Flutter, and native components. Moderation and threads are production-ready.”
“Expensive but building chat infrastructure from scratch is more expensive. Stream handles the edge cases.”
“In-app communication is essential for engagement. Stream's infrastructure removes the need to build this yourself.”
