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.
Hatz is building a governed, multi-model agent platform aimed at MSPs
Hatz ships weekly, and the release notes read as two parallel tracks: a fast-refreshing multi-LLM catalog (Grok 4.5, Fable 5, GPT-5.6, Sonnet 5, and more) and a maturing AI phone-agent product. Around both, it is adding MSP-grade governance: per-role model blocking, compliance and logs, and usage-based billing.

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.

Around both, it is adding MSP-grade governance: per-role model blocking, compliance and logs, and usage-based billing.
The product is consolidating into a control plane where MSPs pick from every major model, wire agents into workflows, and constrain what each role can use. Phone agents are the fastest-moving surface, gaining memory, routing, transfers, and a rebuilt setup flow release over release.
Expect continued same-week model additions plus deeper phone-agent and workflow-orchestration features, with more admin governance and billing controls for multi-tenant MSPs.
