Adapt vs Torq (2026)

Adapt

by Adapt

Torq

by Torq

Pros

• ✓Works where teams already are: Slack (including a Slack app under the customer's own name and icon), the web app, a Chrome extension that can take browser actions, email, and iMessage or RCS texting.
• ✓A hosted MCP server (beta) with OAuth sign-in lets Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients run an Adapt agent with full company context, and models can run on the customer's own keys at no markup.
• ✓SOC 2 Type II certified, with a stated commitment that customer data is never used to train AI models, provider agreements that prohibit training on customer data, and natural-language policies that can require approval before named actions.

Limitations

• –Microsoft Teams is not listed among Adapt's surfaces or integrations, so organizations that do not use Slack rely on the web app, browser extension, email or text messaging.
• –Adapt Cloud is billed purely on metered sandbox compute, storage, memory and gateway model usage, which is harder to forecast than a flat subscription, and it needs a payment method or prepaid balance, though spend limits can be set per team and agent.
• –The open-source edition is waitlist-only until its January 4, 2027 launch rather than a public repository today, and independent reviews are limited to a small number on G2.

Pros

• ✓Torq states that over 90% of cases on its platform are remediated completely autonomously, and Carvana reports that Torq Agentic AI handles 100% of its Tier 1 security alerts.
• ✓Integrations run in both directions across 300 pre-built integrations and 4,000+ pre-built steps, so agents take in alerts from tools such as CrowdStrike and Okta and act back on them, with a public REST API and MCP client support.
• ✓Holds SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and BSI C5, signs a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement, and contractually bars training AI models on customer data without written consent.

Limitations

• –Pricing is not published on torq.io and there is no free tier or self-serve trial. Evaluation starts with a demo request, and AWS Marketplace purchases run on 12-month contracts.
• –G2 reviewers report an average of one month to implement, and value depends on connecting the SIEM, EDR, identity, cloud and ticketing tools a team already runs.
• –Socrates is pre-configured to request user confirmation for actions that require approval, so how much response runs unattended depends on which actions a team approves in advance.
