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.
Sleekplan bets its relaunch on feedback that triages itself
After a quiet stretch through most of 2025, Sleekplan re-accelerated with a June rebuild — Sleekplan 2.0 in beta — pairing a ground-up admin app with an AI layer meant to manage feedback automatically. Alongside it, a rebuilt, fully configurable Impact Score replaces the old black-box prioritization.

Model availability also swings with external compliance — Fable 5 was added, then disabled under a US government directive.
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.
Expect more tenant- and role-level governance, deeper phone-agent automation, and continued rapid model onboarding gated by admin controls.

Alongside it, a rebuilt, fully configurable Impact Score replaces the old black-box prioritization.
The direction is autonomous feedback handling: less manual triage, more AI-driven scoring, routing, and loop-closing, with integrations like Linear pushing items straight into engineering workflows. Making the Impact Score transparent and configurable signals Sleekplan knows teams won't trust automation they can't audit.
Expect Sleekplan 2.0 to move from beta to general availability with the AI layer expanded, plus more two-way integrations that push scored feedback directly into delivery tools.
