Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract]  
Revenue Recognition Revenue Recognition 
The Company’s revenue is generated from hosted service revenues, including platform access, usage and related professional services. Revenues are recognized when control of these services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
determination of the transaction price;
allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by revenue source:

Hosted services$49,361 $55,134 
Professional services7,595 9,566 
Total revenue$56,956 $64,700 

Remaining Performance Obligation

As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was $161.7 million. Approximately 97% of the Company’s remaining performance obligations are expected to be recognized during the next 24 months, with the balance recognized thereafter. The disclosed amount represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized and does not include contract amounts that are cancelable by the customer, amounts associated with optional renewal periods, and amounts related to performance obligations that are billed and recognized as performed.
Contracts with Multiple Performance Obligations

Most of the Company’s contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”) basis. Judgment is required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company determines SSP based on observable prices at which the performance obligations are sold separately. When not directly observable, SSP is estimated using an adjusted market assessment approach, which considers market conditions and other entity-specific factors.

Information about Contract Balances

The Company defers all incremental commission costs incurred to obtain the contract. These contract acquisition costs, which are comprised of sales commissions, have balances at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 of $20.9 million and $24.0 million, respectively. The Company amortizes these costs over the related period of benefit using the customer expected life that the Company determined to be four years, which is consistent with the transfer to the customer of the services to which the asset relates. Commissions earned for renewal contracts are amortized over the contractual term of the renewals. The Company classifies contract acquisition costs as long-term.

The deferred revenue balance consists of services, which have been invoiced upfront, and are recognized as revenue only when the revenue recognition criteria are met.

In some arrangements, the Company allows customers to pay for access to the Conversational Cloud over the term of the software subscription. Amounts recognized as revenue in excess of amounts billed are recorded as unbilled receivables. Unbilled receivables, anticipated to be invoiced in the next twelve months, are included in Accounts receivable, net of allowances for credit losses on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company recognized revenue of $28.7 million and $27.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which was included in the corresponding deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the year.
The Company’s long-term deferred revenues are included in Other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The opening and closing balances of the Company’s contract acquisition costs, net, and deferred revenues are as follows:

Balance as of March 31, 2026$20,856 $57,987 $32 

The changes in deferred revenue during both periods presented were primarily driven by changes in customer renewal patterns and contract structures, including the timing of renewals and shifts in service commitments. Amortization expense in connection with contract acquisition cost was $4.1 million and $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and was included in sales and marketing expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounts Receivable, Net

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of expected credit losses in the Company’s existing accounts receivable, based on both specific and general reserves. The Company maintains general reserves on a collective basis by considering factors such as historical experience, creditworthiness, the age of the trade receivable balances, and current economic conditions. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. The activity in the allowance for credit losses as of the dates presented is as follows:
