"We onboarded a 150-employee law firm in 8 minutes flat. The Onboarding Agent discovered assets we didn't even know existed on their network. What used to take 3 days of senior tech time now happens automatically. I don't know how we ran this without it."
Sarah Chen Director of Operations, Apex Managed IT

What MSPs Say

★★★★★
"The AI agents are the real deal. Our Threat Researcher mapped 47 CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK in 3 minutes — something that would have taken our team a full day."
Jennifer WalshSecurity Engineer, PinnacleNet MSP
★★★★★
"Our HIPAA audit prep went from 'everyone panic for 6 weeks' to 'run the Compliance Agent and drink coffee.' It took 4 minutes to generate our evidence package. I showed the auditor and they asked what software we used."
Thomas KimOwner, MedTech IT Solutions
★★★★★
"I was skeptical about the 10-minute setup claim. It actually took 7 minutes. I've been in managed services for 15 years and I've never seen anything deploy that fast without breaking something."
Lisa HernandezPrincipal, Fortified Managed Services
★★★★★
"The DNS Shield blocked a DNS exfiltration attempt at a medical practice on day 2 of deployment. The old tools wouldn't have caught it for days, if ever. Gridlock pays for itself in cyber insurance savings alone."
Alex TurnerCEO, ClearPath IT Group
★★★★★
"We pitched Gridlock to a 200-attorney law firm and closed the deal in one meeting. The live dashboard demo sealed it — they could see their own risks in real time. Never had a deal close that fast."
Carlos ReyesSales Director, Atlas IT Partners
★★★★★
"The Account Manager agent flagged a client at churn risk based on their engagement patterns. We reached out proactively, fixed the issue, and that client just expanded their contract by $800/month."
Megan FosterCustomer Success, Streamline Networks
