What the Intercom Logo Colors Mean?
The Intercom logo colors split into a mark color and an accent, and the split is forced by physics. The cyan #6AFDEF measures 1.1:1 against white, which means it cannot draw a logo, carry text or hold an edge on a light page; it works only as a fill behind something dark. So the speech bubble is set in black and the cyan does the shouting elsewhere. That is a normal arrangement for very light brand colors, and it is why quoting one hex for Intercom is misleading.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
