What is Range?
Range's tracked feed is its blog, and it went quiet in early 2023
What SparkPulse is tracking for Range is the company blog, not a product changelog. The most recent posts are team-management advice — goal-setting, meeting rituals, performance-review phrasing — and they stop dead in January 2023. No product release, pricing, or capability signal appears anywhere in the window.
What is Skedda?
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.

Range's tracked feed is its blog, and it went quiet in early 2023
◆ Current state
What SparkPulse is tracking for Range is the company blog, not a product changelog. The most recent posts are team-management advice — goal-setting, meeting rituals, performance-review phrasing — and they stop dead in January 2023. No product release, pricing, or capability signal appears anywhere in the window.
◆ Where it's heading
On this feed alone, Range looks dormant: the content engine that produced weekly async-work advice through 2022 simply stopped. Whether the product is still shipping is invisible here because the source we track no longer updates. The arc is a flatline, not a decline we can characterize.
◆ Prediction
Nothing in these entries supports a confident prediction about Range's next move; the feed has not updated in over three years. The actionable signal is about our tracking, not the product — we likely need a different source to see whether Range is still active.
Skedda
6.3COLLAB
Skedda Companion can now be pushed to every laptop through MDM for full presence data.
◆ Current state
Skedda's last quarter has been about making the data it collects visible and usable: Occupancy Insights, multi-venue comparison, richer visit exports, a read-only API beta and a redesigned Visits page. Skedda Companion 1.2 now installs through Intune, Jamf, Kandji or any MDM and enrols users automatically, so check-ins can be verified from laptop presence without QR codes or hardware.
◆ Where it's heading
Skedda is shifting from a booking front end to a source of workplace attendance data. Companion's MDM rollout aims at complete presence coverage, which makes the occupancy analytics and API more valuable as more laptops report in.
◆ Prediction
Expect occupancy and presence data to reach the API, since Skedda said more API capabilities are planned and Companion now feeds richer attendance data.
