What is Formbricks?
The 5.3 line reached stable and immediately dropped into single-fix patch-RC mode.
Formbricks runs three release branches at once — 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 — publishing release candidates almost daily, most carrying a single backported fix. The 5.3 line has moved past its feature RCs: 5.3.0-rc.1 through rc.3 delivered MCP scope corrections, Helm volume extension points and an accessibility pass, and the branch is now on 5.3.4-rc.1, a one-line fix stopping no-overlay surveys from blocking the host page they sit on. Workspace and organization scoping remains the recurring thread, with the contact detail page the latest surface re-tied to its authorizing workspace.
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.
Formbricks vs Hatz AI: editorial side-by-side
Formbricks
5.0SUPPORT
The 5.3 line reached stable and immediately dropped into single-fix patch-RC mode.
◆ Current state
Formbricks runs three release branches at once — 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 — publishing release candidates almost daily, most carrying a single backported fix. The 5.3 line has moved past its feature RCs: 5.3.0-rc.1 through rc.3 delivered MCP scope corrections, Helm volume extension points and an accessibility pass, and the branch is now on 5.3.4-rc.1, a one-line fix stopping no-overlay surveys from blocking the host page they sit on. Workspace and organization scoping remains the recurring thread, with the contact detail page the latest surface re-tied to its authorizing workspace.
◆ Where it's heading
The multi-tenancy audit is still running and still backported everywhere rather than only forward — API keys, surveys, quotas, integrations, response imports and now the contact detail page have each been re-scoped in turn. Alongside it, the agent-facing surface built out in 5.2.0 is being refined rather than extended: the 5.3 MCP work is scope correction, not new capability. With 5.3 now issuing patch RCs a day or two apart, that branch has crossed from feature development into maintenance.
◆ Prediction
Expect 5.3 to keep issuing single-fix patch release candidates while the next feature drop opens a 5.4 line, and 5.1 and 5.2 to continue receiving only security and billing backports.
Hatz AI
6.3SUPPORT
Hatz sells through MSPs, and its roadmap has started to serve the partner more than the end user
◆ 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.
