Thread
Also known as: Thread AI, Magic Agents, Thread Voice AI
AI service desk for MSPs that automates triage, dispatch, and client conversations across chat, email, and phone with Magic Agents, resolving routine tickets and prepping the rest for technicians.
Thread is an AI service desk built for managed service providers, automating triage, dispatch, and client conversations across chat, email, phone, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Its Magic Agents handle ticket intake, gather details, categorize and prioritize requests, and resolve fifteen to twenty five percent of tickets end to end with no technician involvement, sending the remainder to the right technician fully prepped. The vendor reports triage, dispatch, categorization, and time entries running automatically at ninety six percent accuracy and says it has returned more than half a million hours of technician work across seven hundred fifty plus MSP partners processing over one hundred seventy million tickets.
A System of Agents spans the service journey: a Triage Agent collects context and routes, a Reminder Agent checks whether issues are still active and closes resolved threads, an Overflow Agent ensures no call goes to voicemail, and a Memory Agent (part of Service Intelligence) builds a living memory of each contact's devices, preferences, and past issues so any technician can deliver service as if they know the client. Thread Voice AI, generally available January 2026, automates the phone channel with capture, transcription, and automatic ticketing.
Founded in 2017 (some sources cite 2019), Thread was among the first to bring generative AI to the MSP space via Microsoft's Azure OpenAI Service. It raised an eighteen million dollar growth round led by Susquehanna Growth Equity in December 2025, bringing total capital to thirty million dollars, and guarantees positive ROI within sixty days or a refund.

Pricing
Thirty four dollars per license per month (AI Pro)
per license per month; AI ticket credits pooled across break-fix customers
Included quota
AI Pro includes unlimited AI for the licensed customer; each paid license adds three AI ticket credits to a pool for unlicensed customers
What is public
AI Pro at thirty four dollars per license, the tier structure, the credit pool mechanic, no multi year contracts, and the sixty day ROI guarantee are all publicly documented on the pricing page.
Billing mechanics
Per managed customer license per month across AI Essentials and AI Pro tiers. Chat is optional. A shared AI ticket credit pool extends AI to smaller break fix customers without a full license.
Cost watchouts
Chat is a paid add on beyond the AI license; unlicensed break fix customers draw on a shared AI ticket credit pool (three credits per paid license) and should convert to a license above three or four tickets per month.
Variable cost rationale
Per license pricing with unlimited AI on the licensed tier keeps cost predictable per managed customer; the main variable is how many customers are licensed versus drawing on the shared credit pool, which the vendor caps and guides toward conversion.
Additional watchouts
The per license model scales with the number of managed customers; the credit pool mechanic requires monitoring to decide when to convert break fix customers to licenses.
Overage / add-ons
Unlicensed customers consume shared AI ticket credits (three per paid license); exceeding three to four tickets per month signals converting them to a paid license, which unlocks unlimited AI and refunds credits to the pool
