On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Ahrefs is slightly ahead of ChartMogul. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), ChartMogul is ahead of Ahrefs. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Ahrefs is slightly ahead of ChartMogul. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Ahrefs is clearly ahead of ChartMogul.

Ahrefs carries 1,303 GitHub stars across 171 public repos, with 28 repositories active in the last 90 days and 7 external contributors on record. ChartMogul shows 112 stars across 21 public repos, 7 active in the last 90 days and 3 external contributors.
