Purpose-built for autonomous investigations
SOAR automates playbooks. urgentic automates thinking. There's a fundamental difference between following a script and conducting a real investigation.
| Capability | SOAR | urgentic |
|---|---|---|
| Investigation approach | Runs pre-built playbooks | Autonomous reasoning and investigation |
| Alert coverage | Only alerts with matching playbooks | Every alert, regardless of type |
| Setup time | Months of playbook development | Live in days |
| Maintenance | Constant playbook tuning required | Self-improving with every investigation |
| Unknown threats | No playbook = no response | AI investigates novel threats natively |
| Investigation depth | Shallow — follows fixed steps | Deep — adaptive to evidence gathered |
| Report quality | Structured but formulaic | Analyst-quality, context-rich reports |
The SOAR problem
SOAR was built for a simpler threat landscape. It excels at routine, repetitive tasks — but modern attacks are complex, adaptive, and often novel. SOAR can't investigate what it hasn't been programmed for. The result? Analyst teams spend weeks building and maintaining playbooks instead of hunting threats.
The urgentic approach
urgentic doesn't follow scripts — it thinks. AI agents reason about the available evidence, form hypotheses, and adaptively investigate each unique incident. No playbooks to build, no edge cases to handle. Every alert gets a thorough, bespoke investigation.
