From helpdesk-with-AI to AI-native helpdesk — Gorgias collapses its product story around the AI Agent.
Gorgias is publishing in dense bursts across three streams at once: AI-native product surfaces (MCP for Claude and ChatGPT, AI Agent pricing transparency, Helpdesk 2.0), original benchmark content (Ecom Lab, 2026 Conversational Commerce Report), and a steady ecommerce-support how-to library. The AI Agent is now the centerpiece; older helpdesk fundamentals get repositioned around it.
MSP-focused AI platform scales multi-tenant control while staying aggressively model-agnostic
Hatz AI ships weekly, bundling many changes per release. The platform serves MSPs managing AI across client tenants, and recent work spans tenant provisioning templates, an Anthropic-inclusive LLM gateway with Opus 4.8, a steady stream of MCP integrations (Apollo, Asana, Attio, Cal.com, Autotask), governance controls (download restrictions, credit limits), and model additions like Gemini 3.5 Flash.

The AI Agent is now the centerpiece; older helpdesk fundamentals get repositioned around it.
The arc is from helpdesk-with-AI to AI-native helpdesk. MCP plus LLM-query workflows push Gorgias into agentic infrastructure territory; the Ecom Lab launch reads as a play for benchmark-authority as a moat; Gaia for Zendesk is a thinly veiled competitor-displacement tactic. Expect the product story to keep collapsing around the AI Agent.
Expect tighter packaging of AI Agent capability with benchmark data — plausibly a public Ecom Lab dashboard surfacing 'where you stand versus the Gorgias customer set' — and more free utilities aimed at users of competing helpdesks.

The platform serves MSPs managing AI across client tenants, and recent work spans tenant provisioning templates, an Anthropic-inclusive LLM gateway with Opus 4.8, a steady stream of MCP integrations (Apollo, Asana, Attio, Cal.com, Autotask), governance controls (download restrictions, credit limits), and model additions like Gemini 3.5 Flash.
Two forces drive the roadmap: multi-tenant operational control for MSPs (workspace templates, bulk tenant creation, usage dashboards, role-based AI controls) and breadth — many models via routing and many integrations via MCP. Hatz is building the management layer above a swappable model and tool substrate.
Expect more MSP-scale provisioning and governance features plus continued integration and model additions; the Anthropic gateway and tenant templates point to deeper standardized-onboarding tooling next.
