Gainsight is shipping product changes too fast for its changelog to keep up.
Gainsight is a customer success platform primarily serving enterprise SaaS. Its changelog currently surfaces only a catch-all placeholder entry rather than discrete feature releases, which makes evaluating recent product direction from public signals difficult. The platform's core motion — health scoring, playbooks, timeline activities, and NPS — appears stable.
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.
Gainsight is a customer success platform primarily serving enterprise SaaS. Its changelog currently surfaces only a catch-all placeholder entry rather than discrete feature releases, which makes evaluating recent product direction from public signals difficult. The platform's core motion — health scoring, playbooks, timeline activities, and NPS — appears stable.
With the rise of AI-assisted customer success tooling across the category, Gainsight has been under pressure to ship agentic CS workflows. Without visible changelog detail it is unclear whether recent engineering investment is going into AI features, platform stability, or integrations. The company's messaging has leaned into AI-native CS workflows, but public release evidence is thin.
Expect Gainsight to either open up its release notes in a more granular format or surface specific AI-assisted playbook and scoring features — the current placeholder structure suggests either a lag in documentation or a deliberate choice to gate release visibility.
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.
