Irks me slightly that they use a 3rd-party°° FrontDoor[0] (chat via Slack) integration to talk to potential customers, instead of a proprietary implementation of their own platform.

Yes, it's technically a different thing (user->company instead of user->user) — but if they're advertising an expensive JS chat service, I would expect them to be showing that off front-and-center as a way to communicate with their support.

Hey, thanks. That's ours too; uses a big chunk of the same technology :)

Epic! I take it back in that case.

Perhaps making it more clear that you're the creators in that case? Unless I'm being my ignorant self again :)

No, excellent point, thanks. Will think of an elegant way to do that :)
