## Executive Summary

Tines sells a workflow automation platform that security teams use to turn alert handling and other repetitive work into automated flows. Its customers, who include Coinbase, Databricks, and GitLab, run more than a billion automated actions through the platform each week. Microsoft's blog, a competitor's page, relays a 2026 analyst report on AI-driven security operations that places Tines in its leader group alongside Microsoft and CrowdStrike, even as the company widens beyond security toward IT and other enterprise teams. Its AI agents run on outside language models that rivals can also use. The asset a rival cannot quickly rebuild is the base of workflows its customers wired themselves, automation a departing customer would have to take back and run on its own.
