What is ITFlow?
ITFlow 26.11 makes contracts drive SLAs, rates and billing for MSPs
ITFlow runs an MSP on one open-source stack and ships a dated release almost every month. 26.11 is a big release by its own description, with nearly seventy database steps: contracts now set each client's SLAs, hourly rates and net terms, renew themselves, can be sent for signature and can hold prepaid hours. Clients lose their own rates, which move into a 'Standard terms' contract during the update. The release also adds trips and mileage, product stock tracking, billable expenses and configurable payment reminders. 26.10 added a draft-for-review option on recurring invoices.
What is Hatz AI?
Hatz 2.0 turns its chat into an agent that plans, browses and saves its work as automations.
Hatz is a multi-model AI platform sold through MSPs. Hatz 2.0, released November 12, merges its Auto tiers into one Auto mode that plans each task, splits it across parallel helpers, works in websites through a controlled browser and saves finished work as repeatable automations. A Vault keeps API keys out of the model's view, and chats can run for up to three hours unattended. The same day added an itemised Subscription Overview for MSP billing and Claude Fable 5.2 and Gemini 4 Carbon in the model catalog, a week after Spaces and the AI Gateway.

ITFlow 26.11 makes contracts drive SLAs, rates and billing for MSPs
◆ Current state
ITFlow runs an MSP on one open-source stack and ships a dated release almost every month. 26.11 is a big release by its own description, with nearly seventy database steps: contracts now set each client's SLAs, hourly rates and net terms, renew themselves, can be sent for signature and can hold prepaid hours. Clients lose their own rates, which move into a 'Standard terms' contract during the update. The release also adds trips and mileage, product stock tracking, billable expenses and configurable payment reminders. 26.10 added a draft-for-review option on recurring invoices.
◆ Where it's heading
ITFlow is moving from ticketing and documentation toward a full PSA where the contract is the source of billing and service terms. The billing side has been the focus for two releases, after a year of mail and category work.
◆ Prediction
Follow-up point releases fixing the 26.11 migration are likely given its size; the notes themselves ask admins to review contracts after updating.
Hatz AI
7.5SUPPORT
Hatz 2.0 turns its chat into an agent that plans, browses and saves its work as automations.
◆ Current state
Hatz is a multi-model AI platform sold through MSPs. Hatz 2.0, released November 12, merges its Auto tiers into one Auto mode that plans each task, splits it across parallel helpers, works in websites through a controlled browser and saves finished work as repeatable automations. A Vault keeps API keys out of the model's view, and chats can run for up to three hours unattended. The same day added an itemised Subscription Overview for MSP billing and Claude Fable 5.2 and Gemini 4 Carbon in the model catalog, a week after Spaces and the AI Gateway.
◆ Where it's heading
Hatz is moving from a model picker with workflows to an agent runtime that MSPs govern. The November 6 gateway put outside coding agents under Hatz controls; Hatz 2.0 makes its own chat an agent, with approvals, credentials handling and billing visibility for the MSP layer.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next releases to give MSP admins finer controls over agent runs, such as per-role approval policies, browser site limits and credit caps for automations.
