Founder and CEO @ Flamingo

Hey everyone, I'm Michael - founder and CEO of Flamingo. Before this, I built Vicarius, a cybersecurity company focused on vulnerability remediation, where I raised over $60M in funding. Working closely with service providers through that journey, I saw firsthand how MSPs were losing money to vendor payouts and inefficient systems - and that's when the idea for Flamingo clicked. I set out to build an open-source platform that dramatically increases MSP margins while helping them deliver better service to their clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

MSP AI Agents

Can AI Agents Really Close Tickets Without a Technician?

Yes. In production MSP shops today, 10% to 25% of tickets close before a human opens them. Thread alone has processed 173 million tickets across 750-plus MSP partners at 96% triage accuracy, handing back 490,000-plus technician hours. Agents own the low-risk, high-volume work (password resets, MFA enrollment, known installs, onboarding and offboarding) and flag anything that touches production data or needs judgment for a human to take.

How Much Can AI Agents Save an MSP?

On a five-person desk, reported deployments show $78,000 to $130,000 in annual direct labor savings, roughly 30% fewer escalations, and 15% to 20% better SLA compliance. Broader MSP adoption data adds ticket handling time cut by 45% and five to 12 points of margin, all from reclaimed capacity rather than headcount cuts.
