I wouldn't call Hipchat's OS X client native; it's Flash (Adobe Air). The Slack's desktop OS X and iOS apps, while they are html based, are an order of magnitude nicer to use.

Their new windows client (and therefore I imagine the others too) appears to be Qt and Webkit. Most of it still seems to be their web app wrapped in native...
