What is Desk365?
Asset management is the real build; the feed is mostly an interview series.
Desk365's feed mixes two things. The product half is a steady asset-management build-out: Microsoft Intune device sync with field mapping, asset activity tracking, more flexible exports and labels, expanded APIs, plus a Phase 2 August release adding printable knowledge-base articles, JSON data for section-based dropdowns, reorganised ticket and time-entry categories and quick-start timers. The other half is Humans of Support, an interview series running roughly weekly, alongside comparison and metrics content.
What is Hatz AI?
Hatz AI launched Activate for MSP AI deployments and made phone agents self-service in back-to-back releases
Hatz AI is shipping at a high rate across three threads: model additions (Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8 Flash, GLM 5.3, DeepSeek variants), phone agent capabilities (pause/duplicate/reassign/silence controls/live look-ups), and MSP-specific tooling (Hatz Activate for Shadow AI scanning and AI rollouts, Hatz Learn moved in-house, PSA sync improvements). The product is positioning as the AI-as-a-service layer for MSPs managing client AI adoption.

Desk365
5.0SUPPORT
Asset management is the real build; the feed is mostly an interview series.
◆ Current state
Desk365's feed mixes two things. The product half is a steady asset-management build-out: Microsoft Intune device sync with field mapping, asset activity tracking, more flexible exports and labels, expanded APIs, plus a Phase 2 August release adding printable knowledge-base articles, JSON data for section-based dropdowns, reorganised ticket and time-entry categories and quick-start timers. The other half is Humans of Support, an interview series running roughly weekly, alongside comparison and metrics content.
◆ Where it's heading
The shipping work points at IT service management rather than general customer support — Intune sync, asset activity history and asset exports are ITSM concerns, and they are arriving faster than anything on the ticketing side. Desk365 is positioning against MSP and internal-IT helpdesks while its written content argues that AI is not a substitute for judgement, which is a deliberately conservative stance for the category.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next product release to deepen asset management further — likely software or licence inventory on top of the device sync already in place — and to keep arriving as a batched monthly or phase digest rather than individual feature notes.
Hatz AI
6.3SUPPORT
Hatz AI launched Activate for MSP AI deployments and made phone agents self-service in back-to-back releases
◆ Current state
Hatz AI is shipping at a high rate across three threads: model additions (Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8 Flash, GLM 5.3, DeepSeek variants), phone agent capabilities (pause/duplicate/reassign/silence controls/live look-ups), and MSP-specific tooling (Hatz Activate for Shadow AI scanning and AI rollouts, Hatz Learn moved in-house, PSA sync improvements). The product is positioning as the AI-as-a-service layer for MSPs managing client AI adoption.
◆ Where it's heading
Hatz Activate is the strategic move: a Shadow AI scanning and customer activation workflow built into the admin dashboard turns Hatz from an AI chat platform into a managed AI deployment product for MSPs. Phone agents are becoming a first-class product with their own life cycle — self-service requests, drafts, silence controls, per-minute billing — suggesting Hatz is building toward a full voice AI service layer for MSP clients.
◆ Prediction
Phone agent features will reach parity with the core chat/workflow surface within two or three releases — approval workflows, templates, and call analytics are the remaining gaps — while Activate will get deeper PSA integrations as MSPs begin using it for active client management rather than just prospecting.
