What are some hosted saas offerings to add comments to your site/blog? I've seen disqus just from being a webizen but what else is out there?

Thank you! Comment box looks like the winner to me!

I'd go for https://www.discourse.org/ if you are hosting a long-term project where SEO & UI matters.

If it's a dev blog, then go https://utteranc.es/ or https://giscus.app/

I use Giscus :)

Chatwoot is something entirely different... this is not relevant.

  I was looking into both customer conversation and chat recently and I mixed things up. Sorry.

This seems to be a customer service/messaging app. Thank you but not rel.
