Hatz AI lets MSPs bring AI as-a-service to enterprise customers

Startup Hatz AI has launched with the goal of bringing managed service providers (MSPs) the tools to build and support AI applications they can quickly offer SMB enterprise customers that can impact their businesses.

The Hatz AI service is anchored by a Large Language Model  (LLM) Ops engine called Mido and includes multi-tenant management through an MSP admin dashboard.  MSPs will be able to integrate AI into their services developing focused AI applications and custom workflows all managed by AI assistants.

AI as a Service is slowly emerging as an option offered by cloud services providers directly to large enterprises. That’s great for Boeing or Disney, but a small to midsized businesses would be left high and dry. And while Amazon and Google have the resources to offer AIaaS, the estimated 50,000 MSPs in the United States alone did not.

AI as a Service (AIaaS,) is slowly emerging as an option offered by cloud services providers directly to large enterprises, and while that’s great for Boeing or Disney, small to midsized businesses would be left high and dry, according to Hatz AI cofounder and CEO Jimmy Hatzell.  And while Amazon and Google have the resources to offer AIaaS, the estimated 50,000 MSPs in the United States alone did not.

“In order for small businesses to compete, as AI comes up over the next couple of years, they’re going to need help, and they’re going to need tools and human help. So we are offering everything that would be included in and MSP AI as a service offering to keep your business alive and make it through this next digital transformation,” he said.

Hatz AI will launch its first products in March. The first release will include an AI Application Builder and what it calls Organizationally Managed AI Assistants that MSPs can use to build custom applications for customers.
