On education (docs, guides and learning material for developers), Intuit is slightly ahead of Heap. On community (issue response, PR reviews and discussion health), Intuit is clearly ahead of Heap. On reach (how visible the ecosystem is beyond its own repos), Heap is slightly ahead of Intuit. On momentum (release cadence and how fast the ecosystem moves), Intuit 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. Intuit shows 18,182 stars across 150 public repos, 27 active in the last 90 days and 40 external contributors.
