SupportBee's public changelog hasn't moved since 2019 — the product appears dormant.
All four ingested SupportBee entries are from early 2019: a UI refresh, an autocomplete tweak in the ticket reply form, a Customer Groups feature for the Enterprise plan, and the meta-announcement of starting a changelog. There has been no public release activity in the seven years since.
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.

There is no observable trajectory. The 2019-only entries suggest the product is either in deep maintenance mode or has stopped publishing externally. Whatever direction SupportBee took post-2019 isn't visible from the public release notes.
Without fresh signal, no confident prediction is possible. The likely scenarios are continued maintenance for an existing customer base or eventual sunset; the data here cannot disambiguate.

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.
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.
