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 Jira Service Management?
Jira Data Center grinds out admin and reliability work for self-hosted customers.
What's surfacing here is the Jira Software Data Center / on-prem release stream — the engine JSM rides on. Recent versions (9.7 through 9.11) are dense with admin-side improvements: automation security (secret masking, allowlists), S3 attachment storage, AWS Secrets Manager integration, faster index snapshots, and database connectivity resilience. None of it is a directional move; it's the kind of release stream that signals 'we still ship for self-hosted.'

Hatz AI

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.
Jira Service Management
1.3SUPPORT
Jira Data Center grinds out admin and reliability work for self-hosted customers.
◆ Current state
What's surfacing here is the Jira Software Data Center / on-prem release stream — the engine JSM rides on. Recent versions (9.7 through 9.11) are dense with admin-side improvements: automation security (secret masking, allowlists), S3 attachment storage, AWS Secrets Manager integration, faster index snapshots, and database connectivity resilience. None of it is a directional move; it's the kind of release stream that signals 'we still ship for self-hosted.'
◆ Where it's heading
Atlassian continues investing in Data Center as a real product, not a maintenance track. The drumbeat of ops, automation security, and infra integration tells you who's still buying it: large regulated enterprises that can't or won't move to Cloud. Cloud-only differentiation (Fin-style AI, etc.) doesn't appear in this stream — that's the strategic separation.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Data Center work targeted at compliance-heavy customers — granular permissions, secrets-management deepening, observability — and continued silence on AI features that live exclusively in Cloud. The 9.x line will likely give way to 10.x/11.x branding for the next material release.
