Xurrent is turning its ITSM platform agentic — Sera AI's first two agents just shipped.
Xurrent is an ITSM/ESM platform (service management, CMDB, incident response) shipping monthly product updates across its ITSM and IMR lines. The dominant thread across 2026 is AI: the Sera AI brand now spans an in-product assistant, a configuration 'Studio,' and — as of July — its first autonomous agents. Alongside that, Xurrent has made itself queryable from Claude and Copilot via MCP servers.
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.

Alongside that, Xurrent has made itself queryable from Claude and Copilot via MCP servers.
The product is moving from AI-as-assistant to AI-as-operator. Earlier releases wired in analytics, CMDB health reporting, and a Sera AI Studio to configure virtual-agent behavior; the July release crosses into autonomous agents actually handling work. The MCP servers signal a parallel bet that the platform's data should be reachable from external AI clients, not just its own UI.
Expect the agent count to grow beyond the first two, with the Sera AI Studio positioned as the governance and coaching layer that gates rollout. Continued MCP surface expansion is likely as agent-accessible service data becomes an expectation.

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.
