What is Hatz AI?
Hatz sells through MSPs, and its roadmap has started to serve the partner more than the end user
Most of Hatz's window is model-selector maintenance — Claude Opus 5, Kimi K3, GLM 5.2 Fast, DeepSeek V4 Flash, the Gemini 3.x line — plus a steady buildout of the phone agent, which has gained pausing, duplication, reassignment, drafts, silence tolerance, business hours, and caller memory. Against that routine, Hatz Activate stands apart: a rollout console built for the managed service providers who resell the platform.
What is Sleekplan?
Sleekplan rebuilt itself around AI triage, then put the feedback board inside ChatGPT.
Releases are infrequent and arrive as monthly digests with truncated bodies, so scope has to be inferred from direction. The June 2.0 rebuild replaced the admin app and added an AI layer for handling feedback; July connects a workspace to ChatGPT, anonymizes identities on public boards, and adds @-mentions to composers. A rebuilt Chrome extension sits between them, aimed at capture from other tools.

◆ Current state
Most of Hatz's window is model-selector maintenance — Claude Opus 5, Kimi K3, GLM 5.2 Fast, DeepSeek V4 Flash, the Gemini 3.x line — plus a steady buildout of the phone agent, which has gained pausing, duplication, reassignment, drafts, silence tolerance, business hours, and caller memory. Against that routine, Hatz Activate stands apart: a rollout console built for the managed service providers who resell the platform.
◆ Where it's heading
Two arcs run in parallel. The phone agent is being hardened into a product an MSP can deploy repeatedly across client sites — duplicate it onto a new number, reassign it to a different tenant, cap its minutes — while Activate supplies the partner with the shadow-AI scan and enablement material that starts the sales conversation. Model additions continue but carry no direction; they are table stakes restated every few weeks.
◆ Prediction
Expect more tenant- and partner-scoped administration, since renaming tenants and invoicing over the API both landed this window and point at MSPs managing many clients programmatically. The phone agent's usage-based pricing suggests metering and limits will keep expanding ahead of any new end-user capability.
Sleekplan
6.3SUPPORT
Sleekplan rebuilt itself around AI triage, then put the feedback board inside ChatGPT.
◆ Current state
Releases are infrequent and arrive as monthly digests with truncated bodies, so scope has to be inferred from direction. The June 2.0 rebuild replaced the admin app and added an AI layer for handling feedback; July connects a workspace to ChatGPT, anonymizes identities on public boards, and adds @-mentions to composers. A rebuilt Chrome extension sits between them, aimed at capture from other tools.
◆ Where it's heading
Both ends of the loop are being pushed out of Sleekplan's own interface. Capture moves to the browser extension where support and sales already work; management moves into the assistant a product manager already has open. The Impact Score rework and identity anonymization address the two objections that follow — that prioritization is opaque, and that public boards leak customer identity.
◆ Prediction
Expect the ChatGPT connection to be joined by other assistant surfaces on the same pattern, and the 2.0 beta to reach general availability with the AI triage layer as its headline.
