What is Hatz AI?
Hatz AI is building a governed, white-label AI layer for managed service providers
Hatz AI's recurring themes are multi-tenant governance, a broad model gateway, and voice/phone agents. Recent releases added Claude Sonnet 5 and seven more models, per-role model restrictions, usage-based billing, and agents embedded in workflows, alongside steady phone-agent features like multi-department routing and post-call workflows. Model availability also swings with external compliance — Fable 5 was added, then disabled under a US government directive.
What is Richpanel?
Richpanel is racing to make its inbox the only tab a support agent ever needs.
Richpanel is on an integration-breadth sprint. Recent releases wired in phone (RingCentral, JustCall), the full AfterShip post-purchase suite (Tracking, Returns, Warranty), and commerce backends (SellerCloud, BigCommerce, Appstle) so agents can see and act on orders, returns, and calls without leaving a conversation. Alongside integrations it shipped native SLA management. The consistent goal is to collapse the support workflow into one inbox.

Hatz AI is building a governed, white-label AI layer for managed service providers
◆ Current state
Hatz AI's recurring themes are multi-tenant governance, a broad model gateway, and voice/phone agents. Recent releases added Claude Sonnet 5 and seven more models, per-role model restrictions, usage-based billing, and agents embedded in workflows, alongside steady phone-agent features like multi-department routing and post-call workflows. Model availability also swings with external compliance — Fable 5 was added, then disabled under a US government directive.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is a governed, white-label AI layer for MSPs: admins control which models and integrations each tenant and role can use, billing is moving to usage-based, and agents are being pushed into both workflows and phone channels. The sustained phone-agent investment suggests voice is a growing pillar next to chat and workflow automation.
◆ Prediction
Expect more tenant- and role-level governance, deeper phone-agent automation, and continued rapid model onboarding gated by admin controls.

5.0SUPPORT
Richpanel is racing to make its inbox the only tab a support agent ever needs.
◆ Current state
Richpanel is on an integration-breadth sprint. Recent releases wired in phone (RingCentral, JustCall), the full AfterShip post-purchase suite (Tracking, Returns, Warranty), and commerce backends (SellerCloud, BigCommerce, Appstle) so agents can see and act on orders, returns, and calls without leaving a conversation. Alongside integrations it shipped native SLA management. The consistent goal is to collapse the support workflow into one inbox.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is agent efficiency through consolidation: every release removes a reason to switch tabs, and several explicitly feed the connected data into AI replies—live tracking status answering "where's my order?", AI call summaries on tickets. Richpanel is layering AI-usable context onto a widening base of commerce and telephony integrations, positioning the inbox as the workspace for both the human and the AI agent.
◆ Prediction
Expect more commerce and post-purchase integrations on the same read-then-act pattern, and deeper use of that connected data to let the AI agent resolve order, return, and shipping questions on its own.
