| Autonomy you can dial 20% | 9 / 10 highest among selectedWhyThree levels (Recommend only, Supervised, Auto-run), with each action scored on Confidence, Precision and Reversibility outside the agent loop. | 8 / 10WhyScoped Agent Actions run autonomously or with your sign-off, and Watchtower adds a 24x7 human review service. | 8 / 10WhyPresents oversight and control as core, with governance and audit logs on workflows; a named approval mode is not described on the pages reviewed. |
| Shows its reasoning 15% | 9 / 10 highest among selectedWhyVerdicts carry an evidence trail the team can audit and tune, and decision traces record why analysts decided past cases. | 8 / 10WhyDeterminations Prophet says you can audit, following the questions a human analyst would ask. | 7 / 10WhyCases hold evidence, timelines and summaries, but step-level agent reasoning is described less specifically than at the leaders. |

| Brings SOAR playbooks along 10% | 9 / 10 highest among selectedWhyStates it translates existing SOAR playbooks into Gamebooks, replacing brittle API calls while keeping custom logic. | 6 / 10WhyRuns response natively, so no SOAR is required, but no playbook translation is described. | 8 / 10WhyAgentic and deterministic workflows built from natural language, so playbooks are rebuilt quickly rather than translated. |
| Pricing clarity 10% | 4 / 10 highest among selectedWhyAWS Marketplace listing shows $150,000 for a 12-month contract for one dimension, the Mate Enterprise Tier, a usage tier the listing does not define; no pricing unit and no price on Mate's own site. | 3 / 10WhyNo price; the pricing address returned not found, a free proof of value is offered, and its AWS Marketplace listing refers buyers to Prophet's site. | 2 / 10WhyNo public pricing; the pricing address returned not found. |
