COMPARE
Fast Outcomes, Not Finicky Playbooks
Tired of coding your automation? You’re not alone. Morpheus runs L1 and L2 SOC ops and accelerates L3, with little to no playbook upkeep.
Morpheus AI
NL‑assisted, dynamic playbooks per alert—no Python debt for day‑to‑day SOC work.
Splunk SOAR (Phantom)
Python-first apps/containers; version drift and debugging can tie up Tier-2 resources in many deployments.
Autonomy + control: AI blended with deterministic flows enable editable actions with guardrails.
Manual coordination persists often—escalations and ticket handoffs may be needed to finish containment/quarantine.
AI-powered analyst workspace includes a forensic timeline of alerts, artifacts, entities in proper chronology.
Artifact handling varies across apps; incident narratives are frequently reconstructed after the fact.
Promotion without drama: approvals, history, env bindings separate dev/test/prod cleanly.
Promotion is commonly manual, with scheduled change windows to sync apps and playbooks safely.
Connection health + platform logs ensure strong, stable SIEM integration.
Eng. and operations weight—Python and manual work—can pull teams away from incident velocity.

Our mean time to detect and mean time to respond have all dropped significantly.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Morpheus Really an AI SOC Tool? Isn’t it Just SOAR?
Morpheus is not a SOAR with AI sprinkled on top. It’s an Autonomous SOC platform that generates, tests, and runs playbooks directly from your live data. Unlike SOAR, which relies on manually built runbooks, Morpheus dynamically adapts workflows, correlates alerts across SIEM, EDR, IAM, and cloud, and validates actions with governance steps (unit tests, GitHub PRs, approvals).
Can I Switch from Splunk SOAR to Morpheus?
Yes. Morpheus is designed for easy migration. Instead of rebuilding static playbooks, you can generate automation from active ingestions (e.g., CrowdStrike). Morpheus supports 800+ integrations, CI/CD pipelines, and version control with GitHub, making it straightforward for teams already running Splunk SOAR to switch without downtime.
How Can I See if Morpheus Is Right for Me?
You can request a live demo and see Morpheus handle your own alert data. The platform gives you transparency with open YAML logic, visible code generation, and safe confirmation steps before any high-impact action. That means you get AI-driven speed with full analyst oversight and governance.
What are the key differences between Morpheus and Splunk SOAR?
Playbook Creation
Splunk SOAR emphasizes Python-based apps and playbooks; many automations typically involve coding. Morpheus uses AI to generate playbooks from live alerts, with edits handled through natural-language chat.
Automation Governance
Splunk SOAR promotion is often manual, with scheduled change windows to mitigate risk. Morpheus provides governed promotion with automated tests, AI-suggested fixes, and human approval (e.g., GitHub PRs) for transparent, safer deploys.
Analyst Experience
A builder-centric UX in Splunk SOAR can lead to more escalations and manual work when context isn’t consolidated. Morpheus offers an AI workspace with summaries, attack graphs, and next-best actions to reduce SOC toil and burnout.
Total Cost of Ownership
Splunk SOAR can accrue costs from ongoing Python development and playbook maintenance. Morpheus reduces day-to-day engineering overhead by shipping outcomes without the Python debt (results vary by environment).
Which platform is better for MSSPs and enterprises?
Morpheus scales for multi-tenant MSSPs and enterprise SOCs, offering modular playbooks, case management, and governed automation.
