- **Category:** Automation
- **Made by:** Torq
- **Website:** https://torq.io
- **Runs on:** Web
- **Who should skip it:** Not for you if you want general business or personal automation, as it's aimed at security operations.
- **Facts last checked:** Nov 12, 2026

## Pricing

Torq's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site.


## Key features

- **Auto triage:** AI agents de-duplicate events and filter false positives, giving verdicts that the vendor says are grounded in your team's past decisions.
- **Case management:** Cases are created, assigned and managed from one place, which the vendor describes as the single source of truth for an incident.
- **AI investigation:** Specialized AI agents take on repetitive investigation work and record evidence, timelines and recommended actions for review.
- **Response with Socrates:** Socrates is a natural-language agent that can remediate threats autonomously or with a human overseeing the action.
- **Threat hunting runbooks:** Agentic runbooks access authorized data and tools, compare findings with historical cases and summarize what they find.
- **Reporting and context model:** A context model records each verdict, exception and override, and reporting tools keep stakeholders informed.

## Good for

- Security operations teams drowning in alerts that need triage
- MSSPs and MDRs, which the vendor lists as a separate audience
- SOCs that want automated response with a human able to oversee it

## Worth knowing

- No prices are published; the site directs buyers to request a demo.
- It is aimed at security operations, not general business or personal automation.
- The vendor's own pricing address returns a page-not-found error.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 1.6 out of 4**, graded Nov 12, 2026. Torq is a security operations platform where AI agents triage alerts, investigate and respond, with case management alongside. No prices are published, the pricing address returns a page-not-found error, and it's for security teams only.

- **Value for money: C.** No prices are published; the site directs buyers to request a demo. With nothing on record it sits at C.
- **Free plan and trial: F.** No free plan and no trial are listed, and the site directs buyers to request a demo.
- **Features: C.** AI triage, case management, investigation agents, a response agent called Socrates and threat hunting runbooks. It's a narrower job than general automation, and most of it is the vendor's own description.
- **Ease of use: C.** No store rating on record. Agents, runbooks and a context model need setting up before they earn their keep.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web only. The listing names no integrations.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Torq you would be making connections to other products, each kept working as those products change. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 69 of the 71 other automation tools grade higher.

- You could make: Case management: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: An AI agent, with the models and the safeguards behind it.
