Which one should you look at?

Microsoft Security Copilot is a particularly clear example of an AI assistant embedded into a SIEM investigation workflow. Splunk also explicitly offers an AI assistant designed to accelerate security investigations.www.splunk.com+1

Which SIEM does your organization currently use? For example, Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, IBM QRadar, Elastic, Google SecOps, or another platform.

If you tell me the name, I can identify the specific co-pilot that works with your dashboard and explain its investigation capabilities and integration options.

The important distinction

I'd divide these into three approaches:

1. “Copilot for my existing SOC”
Microsoft Security Copilot, CrowdStrike Charlotte AI, Google Security Operations/Gemini and SentinelOne Purple AI. These augment an existing vendor ecosystem.

2. “Give me an AI analyst to attack the alert queue”
Dropzone AI and Prophet Security are particularly aligned with the problem you described. Dropzone explicitly positions its product around autonomous investigation of every alert and says it works across 90+ integrations.www.dropzone.ai

3. “Rebuild the SOC around agents”
Torq and Palo Alto Cortex XSIAM are broader platforms: investigation is only one component alongside orchestration, response and other SOC functions.www.paloaltonetworks.com+1

One useful signal from the current market: an independent 2026 comparison identifies Torq, Expel, CrowdStrike Charlotte AI, Dropzone, Google SecOps, Microsoft Security Copilot, Cortex XSIAM, Prophet, ReliaQuest and Splunk among the leading AI-SOC platforms, illustrating how quickly this category has expanded.torq.io+1

For your specific “analysts are drowning in logs/alerts” problem, I would put Dropzone, Torq, Microsoft Security Copilot, CrowdStrike Charlotte AI, Google SecOps and Cortex XSIAM on the initial evaluation list—but for different architectural reasons, not as a ranking.

If you tell me your current SIEM + EDR (e.g., Splunk + CrowdStrike, Sentinel + Defender, Elastic + SentinelOne), I can narrow this to the 3–5 products that fit that stack and compare log ingestion, autonomous triage, integrations, human approval controls, deployment model, and pricing.
