Sistava vs Lyzr
Lyzr is an agent infrastructure and governance platform for enterprises running AI agents across multiple clouds, AWS, Azure, GCP, LangChain, that want one control plane to build, observe, and audit them. It ships named blueprint agents, Jazon for sales outreach, Skott for marketing content, Diane for HR and onboarding, and Kathy for competitor research, as customizable starting points, backed by simulation testing, cost tracking, hallucination and PII guardrails, and SOC 2/GDPR/HIPAA-ready audit logging. Sistava is built the other way: pre-built AI Employees with a role, memory, and employment lifecycle you hire directly, with governance built in rather than sold as a separate enterprise layer.

Why Sistava
- Sistava ships AI Employees you hire directly, already set up with a persona and memory. Lyzr's named agents are blueprint templates you configure and deploy inside your own cloud, closer to a starter kit than a hire.
- Sistava is self-serve from day one at $49-$399/mo flat. Lyzr's self-serve Pro tier tops out at $99/mo before per-run and LLM pass-through fees stack on top, and its real target buyer is an enterprise on a custom Enterprise Cloud contract with a stated 8-week production timeline.
- Honest concession: Lyzr's governance depth is real, multi-cloud orchestration, SOC 2/GDPR/HIPAA-ready audit trails, and the ability to swap LLM providers without rebuilding matter for a regulated enterprise. If your bottleneck is governing agents your own engineering team already built, that is a deeper, different problem than hiring a ready-made employee.
