Purple AI runs zero-click investigations to a verdict with an auditable evidence chain, then either triggers policy-driven response or prompts an analyst; Hyperautomation adds 130+ templates and approval gates. From $179.99 per endpoint per year; the agentic analyst is in Enterprise.

SentinelOne is an endpoint and security operations platform whose agentic analyst is Purple AI, embedded in the Singularity Platform. Since June 2026 Purple AI Agentic Investigation runs zero-click, autonomously initiated investigations from alert to verdict, each verdict backed by a complete, auditable evidence chain, combining Anthropic's Claude, OpenAI's GPT and SentinelOne's own Ultraviolet models.

Purple AI also auto-triages alerts, supports hunting through investigation notebooks, and answers security questions across the customer's OCSF-normalized native and third-party data. Depending on governance settings, a verdict either triggers an automated, policy-driven response or prompts an analyst with recommended actions.

Singularity Hyperautomation, the no-code workflow layer, brings 160+ integrations, 130+ workflow templates, triggers on high-severity alerts, exposures and console activity, human approval gates through messaging apps or email, and a log of every action. The Purple AI MCP Server extends platform data into customers' own agents, and REST and GraphQL APIs cover most console functions. AI work is paid for in Singularity Credits, a unified currency across the platform.

The platform runs as SaaS on AWS or as an on-premises virtual appliance, with on-premises, air-gapped and sovereign offerings added in March 2026, and holds SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001 and FedRAMP High.

Integrations

Singularity Hyperautomation provides 160+ prebuilt integrations across security and IT tools with thousands of actions, and Purple AI works over OCSF-normalized native and third-party data. The Purple AI MCP Server extends platform data into customer-built agents, and REST (OpenAPI) and GraphQL APIs cover most console functions.

In practice

An analyst opens the console to find investigations already completed, each with a verdict and a full evidence chain, rather than a queue of alerts to triage from scratch.

A team keeps its existing SIEM and data lake and adds agentic investigation on top, since the platform is deliberately data source agnostic and requires no migration.

A security engineering team uses the Purple AI MCP Server to pull live platform intelligence into an agent it built itself, rather than working only inside the vendor's console.

Trial available

What is public

Per-endpoint annual list prices for Singularity Complete ($179.99) and Commercial ($229.99), the Enterprise inclusions (agentic AI SOC analyst), Singularity Credits as the AI currency, and a complimentary credit allotment to trial Agentic Investigation.

Billing mechanics

Per endpoint per year for platform packages, bought through authorized partners; AI-powered work draws on Singularity Credits.

Cost watchouts

Inference, not stated by the vendor: the agentic analyst sits in the quoted Enterprise package and AI work draws credits, so the listed per-endpoint prices do not cover agentic investigation volume.

Variable cost rationale

Autonomously initiated investigations draw Singularity Credits whose rate is not published, so AI spend tracks alert volume rather than endpoint count.

Additional watchouts

Establish the credit allocation and per-investigation consumption before enabling zero-click investigations broadly.

Sales call required

Mixed (some tiers require a call)

Free / trial

Complimentary Singularity Credits allotment to trial Agentic Investigation, no payment method required
