Smartsheet (rank #338) holds a narrow lead over SoundCloud (rank #536) on the overall Smoower ecosystem score (43 vs 36). The gap of 7 points reflects composite signals across code, docs, community and reach.

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

Smartsheet carries 150 GitHub stars across 11 public repos, with 8 repositories active in the last 90 days and 15 external contributors on record. SoundCloud shows 8,606 stars across 56 public repos, 17 active in the last 90 days and 4 external contributors.
