Introducing Hatz AI: Starport's Secure AI Solution for Your Business

Every business we talk to is asking the same question right now: "What should we be doing with AI?"

It's a fair question, and an urgent one. AI tools have gone from a novelty to a daily productivity driver for millions of workers in a remarkably short time. The challenge is that, for most businesses, AI adoption hasn't been part of a strategy. It's been a series of individual decisions made by employees who discovered that ChatGPT could draft an email faster or Copilot could summarize a meeting in seconds.

That's not inherently bad. But it does create a problem that most business leaders don't realize they have.

The Shadow AI Problem

When employees use AI tools on their own, outside of any organizational policy or oversight, it's called shadow AI. And it's more widespread than you might think.

In conversations with businesses across our client base, we consistently find that employees use public AI tools without leadership visibility. That means confidential data, client information, and internal documents may be flowing into platforms that offer no guarantees about how that data is stored, shared, or used.

Most public AI tools use your inputs to improve their models. That proposal you pasted in? The financial data you asked it to summarize? It's no longer just yours.

This isn't a theoretical risk. It's happening right now in businesses of every size and across every industry.

A Better Approach: Secure, Managed AI

We've spent the past several months evaluating the AI landscape to find a solution we can confidently offer our clients: one that addresses security concerns without sacrificing the productivity gains that make AI so valuable.

That's why we've partnered with Hatz AI.

Hatz is an all-in-one AI platform that gives your entire team access to over 70 AI models (including the latest models from Claude, ChatGPT, Google, and more) in a single, secure interface. Rather than locking you into a single provider (and hoping it remains the best option), Hatz lets your team use whichever model is best for the task at hand. An intelligent auto-selector handles this automatically, so nobody needs to become an AI expert to get value from the platform.

Here's what makes it different:

Security you can verify. Hatz is SOC 2 Type 2 certified. Your data is hosted in a private cloud environment, never shared with model providers, and never used to train AI models. 

Integrations that work. Hatz connects to over 75 business tools, including Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, CRMs like Salesforce and HubSpot, project management platforms, and more. AI becomes part of your existing workflow rather than another tool to manage.

No-code automation. Your team can build multi-step workflows in plain language. No coding, no technical background required. From daily briefings pulled from your calendar and CRM to automated report generation, Hatz makes automation accessible to everyone.

Onboarding that drives adoption. Low adoption is the number one reason AI investments fail. The platform includes a structured crawl-walk-run training program with built-in courses, live labs, and use-case workshops. Most teams see meaningful adoption within 30 days.

Why Through Starport?

We're not just recommending a tool. We're offering a managed AI service. When you adopt Hatz AI through Starport, you get:

• A team to handle the setup and administration
• Your account manager can help identify the best use cases for your business
• Ongoing support and adoption tracking through regular business reviews
• Access to live training, workshops, and office hours with the Hatz team

Our own team uses Hatz AI internally, so when we talk about what the platform can do, we're speaking from experience.

Getting Started

We're offering all of our clients a free 30-day trial of Hatz AI: no credit card, no obligation. Your team gets full access to the platform, every AI model, every integration, and the complete onboarding program.

If you're exploring secure AI adoption for your organization, talk with us about current Hatz AI onboarding options and whether a pilot approach makes sense for your environment.

The first step is a 15-minute discovery call where we'll discuss your current AI usage, identify priorities for a secure rollout, and determine the right onboarding path for your organization.

We'll also be hosting a live webinar in the coming weeks where you can see the platform in action and ask questions in real time. Stay tuned for the date and registration details.

The Bottom Line

AI isn't going away, and your team won't stop using it. The question is whether that usage is happening safely, strategically, and in a way that actually drives results for your business.

We believe Hatz AI is the right answer, and we're here to help you get there.
