Agentic Index
7AI vs Simbian (2026)
Both run swarms of specialized agents over the alert stream, at 7.5 and 9.5 of 14, and both come from credible security lineage.
7AI, from the Cybereason founders, runs sixty plus domain specialized agents working each alert in parallel across endpoint, identity, cloud, email and network through to response. Simbian runs operations, threat hunting and penetration testing agents over a shared Context Lake, closing an offensive to defensive loop with a reported 92 percent auto resolution. 7AI parallelizes across domains; Simbian connects offense to defense, and those are different bets about where the leverage is.
Choose 7AI if
- Domain specialization across endpoint, identity, cloud, email and network matches your estate.
- Parallel agents per alert is the architecture you find most credible.
- Founding team credibility from a prior security company reduces your risk.
Choose Simbian if
- Documented coverage is broader and a published resolution rate is evidence you want.
- Penetration testing agents alongside defensive operations closes a loop you run separately.
- A shared Context Lake across offensive and defensive work is the differentiator.
