Biggest opportunity: Swap “ai chat” and “leads” for “home” and “service”. “ai chat” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “home” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “leads” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “service” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

12%

of downloads still active

At least 800 of 6.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median AI plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,010 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other AI plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 2 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

800–900 ≈820

Crossed into this band 2 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 800.

    As a small business owner, I don’t have the time, resources, or skills to implement any “complicated” technology. Xapp chat was not only easy to install but elevates our company in the eyes of our customers, having an interactive chat option on our web site. And once it’s running, it’s on auto pilot. So cool to see when a potential customer is asking questions about our solutions! Highly recommend. John – CEO of DataMoose

    We were looking for a chat plugin that could answer questions for visitors to our website. It’s easy to install, and we were up in running in a few minutes. We started on the free tier, then upgraded our plan so we could add live chat, and integrations into our CRM. Would recommend this product.
