- Analysis of 3rd party SDKs and API calls in top 4 Android chat apps using AppGoblin data.
- Development tools predominantly use Kotlin libraries like Airbnb's Lottie and Square's okhttp3.
- Business tools include a variety of SDKs from Google, Firebase, Statsig, Sentry, Segment, and RevenueCat.
- Product/Marketing Analytics: Google's GMS is universal; Statsig is surprisingly popular in 3 out of 4 apps.
- Monetization tools: RevenueCat is used by OpenAI and Perplexity; LiveKit.io for AI voice by OpenAI and Grok.
- Perplexity uniquely uses MapBox and Shopify SDKs, possibly for image generation and shopping features.
- API calls data is available for further research on specific data points like GPS or email.
- Feedback and further research can be directed via AppGoblin's Discord community.
