Comm100 publishes steadily about AI support — none of it is Comm100 shipping anything
Ten entries, zero releases. The feed is buyer-guide and vertical content: Zendesk alternatives with on-premises deployment, SOC 2 Type II requirements, WCAG checklists for government, gamification in higher education, and a run of iGaming pieces. The newest post is the most substantive of them, reporting from Comm100's own 2026 AI Live Chat Benchmark that chatbots resolved 44.8% of more than 220 million analysed interactions.
Hatz AI launched Activate for MSP AI deployments and made phone agents self-service in back-to-back releases
Hatz AI is shipping at a high rate across three threads: model additions (Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8 Flash, GLM 5.3, DeepSeek variants), phone agent capabilities (pause/duplicate/reassign/silence controls/live look-ups), and MSP-specific tooling (Hatz Activate for Shadow AI scanning and AI rollouts, Hatz Learn moved in-house, PSA sync improvements). The product is positioning as the AI-as-a-service layer for MSPs managing client AI adoption.

The positioning is consistent and clear even though the product is invisible here: on-premises deployment and compliance against Zendesk's cloud, sold into regulated and public-sector buyers. Publishing a resolution-rate distribution from its own traffic is the sharpest version of that argument, since it competes on measured honesty rather than claimed automation. What none of this shows is what Comm100 is building.
Expect the benchmark data to keep being mined for further posts, as it is the one asset here competitors cannot copy. Product direction cannot be read from this source at all, and the velocity score reflects posting cadence rather than shipping.
Hatz AI is shipping at a high rate across three threads: model additions (Claude Fable 5.1, Gemini 3.8 Flash, GLM 5.3, DeepSeek variants), phone agent capabilities (pause/duplicate/reassign/silence controls/live look-ups), and MSP-specific tooling (Hatz Activate for Shadow AI scanning and AI rollouts, Hatz Learn moved in-house, PSA sync improvements). The product is positioning as the AI-as-a-service layer for MSPs managing client AI adoption.
Hatz Activate is the strategic move: a Shadow AI scanning and customer activation workflow built into the admin dashboard turns Hatz from an AI chat platform into a managed AI deployment product for MSPs. Phone agents are becoming a first-class product with their own life cycle — self-service requests, drafts, silence controls, per-minute billing — suggesting Hatz is building toward a full voice AI service layer for MSP clients.
Phone agent features will reach parity with the core chat/workflow surface within two or three releases — approval workflows, templates, and call analytics are the remaining gaps — while Activate will get deeper PSA integrations as MSPs begin using it for active client management rather than just prospecting.
