Command Zero
AI SOC Competitive Comparison

Torq vs Command Zero

Torq is a capable platform that built its name in SOC automation. It starts from workflows and playbooks, with AI agents layered on top. Command Zero starts from investigation — a question-based method that runs Tier-1 through Tier-3 cases with full transparency on every AI decision.

Updated
Why it matters

Automation is not the same as investigation.

Command Zero covers the Tier-1 cases Torq covers, then goes further: deep multi-source investigations, threat hunting, and response, with every AI decision visible and auditable. And it does it at one predictable price.

Side by side

How Command Zero compares to Torq.

CriterionCommand ZeroTorq
Primary focusFull security operations: Tier-1 through Tier-3 investigation, threat hunting, and response.SOC automation and hyperautomation; AI agents layered onto a workflow and playbook engine.
InvestigationDeep, multi-source reasoning. Composable questions build a full case narrative across the estate.Workflow orchestration. Strong at automating defined processes; investigation depth varies by playbook.
AI transparencyGlass-box. Every question, query, and evidence step is visible and auditable per case.Automation logic is configurable, but agent reasoning is less exposed for case-level audit.
SetupQuestion library works on day one. No playbook engineering required.Playbooks and workflows require building and ongoing content engineering.
PricingPredictable per-seat pricing (per knowledge worker). All capabilities included.Layered licensing: base platform plus add-on modules and consumption-based AI components.
Pricing

The pricing difference.

With Torq, capabilities are typically licensed in layers — the base platform, add-on modules, and consumption-based AI usage. Total cost grows as you add capabilities and volume.

Command Zero takes a simpler approach. One price per seat, per knowledge worker. Triage, investigation, threat hunting, and response are all included. Your costs stay predictable as alert volume grows.

Auditability

The transparency difference.

Automation is only as trustworthy as its visibility. Command Zero shows its work on every case: the questions it asked, the sources it queried, the evidence behind each verdict, and what it ruled out. Analysts verify in minutes instead of trusting a summary. That audit trail also matters for compliance reviews.
