Hatz AI, an artificial intelligence startup, has recently secured $24 million in Series A funding to assist managed service providers (MSPs) in helping small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) adopt AI technology. Founded by Jimmy Hatzell, Hatz AI aims to make AI accessible and secure for SMBs, which often struggle to integrate AI into their operations due to a lack of expertise, budget, and understanding of the available tools.
By partnering with MSPs, Hatz AI offers an all-in-one AI operating system that provides MSPs with governance, spend tracking, and automated routing tools for leading frontier models. The startup's platform comes with customizable AI agents and workflows tailored to real-world business functions, such as ticket triage, technical operations, marketing content generation, sales lead qualification, and financial bookkeeping.
Hatz AI's CEO believes that MSPs are the most logical partners to help smaller companies with AI, as they already manage their IT systems and provide security. The company has already seen its active MSP partner base triple in the past year, with revenue growing at an even faster rate. With the recent funding, Hatz AI plans to build out its proprietary model-routing engines and internal software factory infrastructure, while also hiring more staff to expand its forward-deployed engineering and AI research teams.
