What is Social Intents?
A blog feed, not a changelog — and its one piece of real news is Microsoft's, not theirs.
None of the last ten entries is a product release; the feed is the company blog, built from comparison guides, benchmark posts, and copy-paste template roundups aimed at search traffic. The single entry carrying dated news is about someone else's product: Microsoft retires its built-in Teams Live Chat widget on October 5, 2026, after about 18 months, and Social Intents is positioning itself as the way to keep answering website chats inside Teams. Everything else is category education on chatbots, response-time benchmarks, and helpdesk automation.
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.
Social Intents vs Hatz AI: editorial side-by-side
Social Intents
5.0SUPPORT
A blog feed, not a changelog — and its one piece of real news is Microsoft's, not theirs.
◆ Current state
None of the last ten entries is a product release; the feed is the company blog, built from comparison guides, benchmark posts, and copy-paste template roundups aimed at search traffic. The single entry carrying dated news is about someone else's product: Microsoft retires its built-in Teams Live Chat widget on October 5, 2026, after about 18 months, and Social Intents is positioning itself as the way to keep answering website chats inside Teams. Everything else is category education on chatbots, response-time benchmarks, and helpdesk automation.
◆ Where it's heading
The content clusters tightly around one pitch — live chat that lives inside the workspace the team already uses, with posts on Teams, Google Chat, Zoom, and WhatsApp reinforcing it from different search terms. The AI material (hallucination in customer service, IT helpdesk implementation) reads as demand capture for buyers shopping for chatbots rather than evidence of AI features shipping here. Since this source carries no releases, the product's actual direction is not observable from it.
◆ Prediction
The Teams Live Chat retirement gives a dated migration window, so more Teams-migration content ahead of October 5, 2026 is the safe expectation. What the product ships in that window cannot be read from this feed and would need a changelog source.
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.
