Case Study: Bunch launches chat fast and boosts engagement with Stream Chat

How the multiplayer video chat gaming app Bunch integrated Stream Chat in just hours, allowing the team to go to market fast and innovate for the future

Bunch, a multiplayer video chat gaming app, needed a fast-to-market asynchronous chat solution to support planning, strategy, and community conversation alongside its core video chat experience. To move quickly, Bunch evaluated several providers and selected Stream, using the Stream React Native Chat SDK and UI kit to deliver a polished in-app messaging experience.

With Stream, Bunch prototyped chat in just hours and launched full chat functionality in about a month, avoiding the much longer build time of creating chat from scratch. The result was a highly scalable messaging system supporting hundreds of thousands of daily active users, improved engagement and retention through notifications, and minimal ongoing maintenance for Bunch’s engineering team as Stream continued to power chat for Bunch 2.0.
