What is Formbricks?
Formbricks' third 6.1 release candidate is upgrade and workspace-limit fixes, not new surface.
Formbricks' 6.0 RC cycle in September renamed Unify to Analyze, put Act in Beta, capped unlicensed self-hosted installs at one workspace and added MCP OAuth. 6.1.0-rc.1 brought the v3 responses API, MCP read and write scopes for responses and per-webhook background delivery. rc.2 and rc.3 are backport batches; rc.3 enforces the workspace limit inside the creating transaction, removes a Zod eval probe from the survey renderer and fixes online-upgrade edge cases around Cube. The feed still shows no 6.0.0 stable tag.
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.
Formbricks vs Hatz AI: editorial side-by-side
Formbricks
5.0SUPPORT
Formbricks' third 6.1 release candidate is upgrade and workspace-limit fixes, not new surface.
◆ Current state
Formbricks' 6.0 RC cycle in September renamed Unify to Analyze, put Act in Beta, capped unlicensed self-hosted installs at one workspace and added MCP OAuth. 6.1.0-rc.1 brought the v3 responses API, MCP read and write scopes for responses and per-webhook background delivery. rc.2 and rc.3 are backport batches; rc.3 enforces the workspace limit inside the creating transaction, removes a Zod eval probe from the survey renderer and fixes online-upgrade edge cases around Cube. The feed still shows no 6.0.0 stable tag.
◆ Where it's heading
The commercial gating from 6.0 is now paired with programmatic access: responses and feedback records become data that agents and integrations read and write through a documented API and MCP. rc.3's transactional workspace-limit check shows the licensing cap is being made race-proof, and the Cube digest-pinning guidance signals that self-hosted upgrades remain the riskiest part of the release.
◆ Prediction
Expect one or two more 6.1 release candidates focused on upgrade paths before a stable tag; when 6.0 or 6.1 reaches stable still can't be read from the entries.
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.
