Heatmaps show when threads arrive and when agents respond, broken down by hour of day (UTC) and day of week. Use them to spot coverage gaps and plan staffing.

Available heatmaps

How each cell is calculated

Each cell shows the count for that hour-of-day and day-of-week combination, summed across every week in the selected period. A 4-week period means each cell aggregates up to 4 days’ worth of data. Hour buckets run 0-23 UTC. Heatmaps leave out the same threads as every other metric. See Which threads count The messages sent heatmap counts threads, not messages. A thread the team member replied to 3 times on Monday at 09:00 counts once in that cell. To count messages, use the Messages sent chart on the same page.

How to read it

Darker cells mean more activity. Hover over any cell to see the exact count.

How to use it

Set the period to at least 4 weeks to get a reliable pattern. Comparing the Threads created heatmap against Messages sent (from a team member’s page) shows when threads are arriving but no agent is responding.
