On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), HubSpot is clearly ahead of Heap. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), HubSpot is clearly ahead of Heap. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), HubSpot is clearly ahead of Heap.

Heap carries 215 GitHub stars across 65 public repos, with 6 repositories active in the last 90 days and 1 external contributors on record. HubSpot shows 53,481 stars across 381 public repos, 35 active in the last 90 days and 4 external contributors.
