## Executive Summary

Huntress prices around-the-clock human security work like software: 8.99 dollars per endpoint and 4.80 per identity monthly. Its analysts watch customers' computers, Microsoft 365 tenants, and cloud email accounts, then investigate and fix what they find, a job those buyers cannot staff. With public per-unit prices, the managed service providers Huntress sells through resell the service at a predictable margin. Huntress reports protecting more than 250,000 organizations, investors more than doubled its valuation past 1.5 billion dollars in 2024, and new distributors signed on in 2026. The core detection products come with the analyst service. Huntress says it is building its products to act more autonomously, which would cut the analyst hours each customer needs.
